Up until now we have had record turnouts in all the states. Why? There were lots of candidates in the race. Also those candidates were able to focus on one state at a time. Quite simply: You had 5+ other candidates able to put ALL their resources into GOTV efforts in a single state.

Come Tuesday that won't happen. We are down to 4 candidates and no other candidate will be able to put all their resources into all 20 states. Except us!

The same core dedicated group of Ron Paul supporters will show up to vote in all the states. We will be dragging friends and family to the polls. Ron Paul will have the same percentage of the general population as he has had in other states, BUT the other candidates will have less because they can't focus on a single state.

I predict some surprises for RP on tuesday. Just make sure to get every single Ron Paul voter to the polls or caucus on tuesday in your state!
 
do well? What do you consider well :rolleyes: He will be statistically eliminated if he doesn't win atleast a few states this Tuesday.

He may very well win some states. And you know nothing about the current true status of his campaign. Thanks for joining up to first post. :)

We are gonna kick some ass on tuesday. Nobody else can focus on all 20 states at the same time like we can!

Do your homework, dude. Its all about delegates. A brokered convention is the goal. If we can get that, then there is a chance.:)
 
Yes we will.

Tuesday is the day where we find out if the value of a huge grassroots group of supporters can outdo a minority of rich elitists, simply due to our numbers.

Considering the voter fraud that has been documented so far, with Diebold systems in many states Tuesday counting the vote, I think we already know what the "results" are going to be. In a fair election Ron Paul would win hands down.
 
Case proven positive: Non-Paul supporters can't survive 4 posts on RPF. ok, maybe just this post, have some fun. Super Tuesday prayers going out one day be4.

We are not competitive in any of the winner take all states. Our hope lies in the other ones. We need to make serious headway on some delegates in those states or it's independent run here we come.

Personally, I'm hoping we pick up enough delegates to become serious. But in a huge number of states like this, we're right back to the name recognition problem and the major media have pretty well taken care of keeping Ron off of everyone's lips.

Here's to a major upset of the media and us taking home a bunch of delegates.
 
A honest question:

After the primaries you have already seen, what makes you think that this Tuesday will be radically different? It certainly does not help that McCain has taken a massive lead lately right before Super Tuesday and is likely if it continues to end up with the majority of delegates.

I would like Ron Paul to win some states, but will it actually happen :confused:

Try reading my original post first. What you ask is already in there. Let me know if it is too complex for you to follow.

I actually agree with this. I just don't see which states Paul is going to win. Is he more than 10% in any of the polling? Maybe he can pull out Alaska or something, but I just don't see it happening. I think it's more of a stretch to say that he'll win a few states than to say he won't win any. But I'm just trying to be realstic here, so flame away. Paul will probably get his usual 5-15% in all of the states on Tuesday.

Massive lead? He's barely ahead of Romney, and Romney will likely retake the lead after Maine.

He's currently getting 19% in Maine. There's absolutely no reason why his percentage won't continue rising come Super Tuesday.
 
McCain is still ahead by 16 delegates even with Maine figured in. McCain is going to win all of the big winner take all primary states- N.Y., N.J., Connecticut, Arizona, Missouri, plus he has big leads in proportionate states Illinois and Alabama. Romney is going to have to pull off the upset in California, hold off Huckabee and McCain in Georgia, win MA, MT, Utah, N.D., W.V., and a host of other states that haven't been polled yet to remain close to McCain. At this point it's hard to envision McCain not taking a huge lead on Tuesday.

Some of you may be concerned about the chances the republicans have against the democrats in the coming elections, and rightfully so. I personally am disgusted with the lesser of two evils arguments. But for the first time in a long time we no longer need to make that choice. In fact this time if the republicans want to win we must not make that choice.

Lets "really" talk about chances for a moment.

A lot of people say they don't want to waste a vote on a loser. Well, did they really think about that when they said it? Did they even consider the chances a pro war candidate has against the proclaimed anti war democrats?

If anyone but Ron Paul wins the republican nomination then this entire country would galvanize against the republicans just to make sure that they do not win. Think about it, what chance do they even remotely have against that other then using mass vote fraud?

Supporters of the other republican presidential candidates are doomed to lose, and have no choice but to support Ron Paul if they don't want a democrat as a president. This is a simple fact. The other republican candidates can not beat the democrats. No way it could be done.

Please, why don't people at the very least understand this? If Ron Paul does not get the republican nomination we WILL have a democrat as our next president! Plain and simple. Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate that has the slightest chance of beating the democrats.

I am sure the major media corporations know that John McCain hasn't a chance against the democrats. But yet he still gets free press when he can't even fund his own campaign. If we do not do something about this we will have a democrat for a president forced upon us weather we like it or not.

I myself, will not be voting for a loser. That is why I will be voting for Ron Paul, so that my vote will NOT be wasted.

A lot of the republican presidential candidates reminisce and talk about Ronald Reagan in speeches and debates. But I bet they didn't know that Reagan had something to say about Ron Paul.
This is a quote from Ronald Reagan:
"Ron Paul is one of the outstanding leaders fighting for a stronger national defense. As a former Air Force officer, he knows well the needs of our armed forces, and he always puts them first. We need to keep him fighting for our country."


Ron Paul was one of only four congressman that endorsed Ronald Reagan for president in 1976. Reagan also campaigned for Ron Paul two years later. During his ten terms in congress, Ron Paul's impeccably consistent voting record without a doubt proves he is a genuine conservative, and an honest politician if one ever existed. If anyone has the right to claim Reagan like qualities it would be Ron Paul. I can not say for sure, but my guess is that if Reagan was alive today, he would continue to endorse Ron Paul.
 
Talk radio will be bashing McCain the next two days. That could bring his lead down.
 
Sure the MSM polls are disheartening. But it doesn't invalidate anything. A poll we'll never see is one on how many people were once a Ron Paul supporter but switched to someone else. Point being that once someone's awakened, theres no going back - thats the good news and that IMO is the biggest 'news' story in American politics. It has not surprisingly been belittled and ignored by the MSM and their handlers. They are well aware of it and it scares the hell out of them.

A problem I see is that of lack of perspective from the newly initiated. I'm here to tell you this; This movement has motivated more bodies and delivered the message of pure Constitutional liberty and freedom, against tremendous coordinated obstacles mind you, to more people than any other since the original revolution. There's nothing like this going on anywhere, it's true and solid and unlike the Libertarian Party and its campaigns I've hitched my wagon to in the past for a statement, this movement is comparatively massive and it is definitely working. This is the real thing.

Patience young padowans!!
