wow.....TURN OUT THE VOTE!!!


this is an open caucus, right?

YES OPEN CAUCUS

 

[Maximus]

TURN OUT THE VOTE

Every person on their way to the caucus needs to fill their car with Paul voters on their way to the caucus

 

[RickyJ]

Santorum? Get out of here!

What is wrong with these people?

Well for those that are banking on a brokered convention, a Santorum win is better than a Romney win.

 

[iamse7en]

Oh great... :/

 

[RDM]

It's a great idea, but who is coordinating it? You can't just drive around town looking for people to take to the polls. They would need lists.

I don't know where all the colleges are in MN, but that would be a start to see if a Ron Paul Youth group is at a particular college and see if they need help.

The guy who thinks it is a wonderful thing that Iranian scientists are getting killed winning even just a junk poll pisses me off.

I seriously can't stand the merchant of death know as Santorum!

The guy is as much a Christian as the devil is!

I'm telling ya, the college turnout for this caucus is going to be big. Just talking around with kids on my campus, a lot are going to go vote for Ron Paul. I'd expect something like Nevada in '08 happening in Minnesota this time around.

But how many are actually going to vote. I know its a tuesday night, but college kids are notoriously unreliable....

Don't take their word for it! Make sure they get out there at any cost!

Well there are essentially three possible results tomorrow.

1) Paul wins, he gains delegates and momentum.
2) Romney wins and furthers his image as the presumptive nominee.
3) Newt or Santorum wins which does damage to Romney's inevitability factor.

Our best case is number one, our second best would be number three.

not sure I agree with second best.

Go through the dorms are round those kids up!

 

[SCOTUSman]

After Nevada, I'm not holding my breath, but at least it is wide open. This and Maine are the best chances we have. We need Minnesota.

 

[HarryBrowneLives]

No reason we can't get 2nd, although a win would be preferred.

Horsefeathers! I'd take our ground game over broke A#$ Frothy any day. We can WIN MN! We just have to GOTV! PFH, personal phone calls to peeps in MN, and Twitter to Minnesotans!

This is at 7PM not 9AM.

In comparison to the Nevada debacle ... The NV GOP made it clear with their caucus strategy that they didn't want our base to turn out:

1. Have 99% of the caucus times at 9AM and then close up shop as soon as it's over.

2. Take away ALL the Vegas Strip caucuses for young casino and service workers ... with thousands of young people and hispanics that could vote and not leave work.

3. Deny every opportunity to vote in the evening and even turn these people away in some cases.

(#2 and #3 alone cost us 2nd place easily)
THERE is your recipe for disaster without any vote fraud ... the numbers game.

 

[Gravik]

Wtf is up with Santorum lately? MSM must sense Gingrich is failing and therefore they must push Frothy onto us to maintain that Paul is "unelectable"

 

[carterm]

let's win minnesota. contact people. on it now.

 

[tbone717]

not sure I agree with second best.

Reasons? If we hope for a brokered convention we need wins to be traded back and forth among all four candidates for as long as possible. The more Romney wins the more it becomes inevitable in the minds of the voters. You also run the risk of Newt and Santorum dropping out and uniting behind Romney for the purpose of part unity. I am all for going one on one with Romney, but was much more ready for that post NH, than post NV

Don't call Santorum that.
