Nevada is a state where we can win. Ron Paul's fiscally conservative libertarian ideals fit in well in Nevada

We need a win to propel us into winning the nomination

 

[AlexMerced]

in less than a month we've gone 1% -> 6% -> 9%

that's super fast growth

 

[kushaze]

Huckabee and Giuliani's numbers are trending down. Thats good to hear.

 

[rollingpig]

up up up

 

[Maltheus]

We're losing to Giuliani and Thompson, in freakin' Nevada? Well, that just sucks!

 

[mavtek]

We need grassroots effort in Nevada like crazy! Canvass Canvass Canvass.

 

[Ex Post Facto]

I don't trust the polls anymore they lie.

 

[AgentPaul001]

Romney is obviously going to be our biggest competition in the state with the Mormon presence and his spending in the state.

 

[Give me liberty]

yup same here, if you trust the polls, you trust the MSM.

We need to stop saying this. The polls have been accurate thusfar in the primaries.

 

[itsnobody]

I don't trust the polls anymore they lie.

The polls have proven to be highly accurate

They said Ron Paul 5th in Iowa and NH and Ron Paul 4th in MI...that's exactly what happened

For people who insist the polls have been rigged, then do your own polls, call up 1,000 random likely Republican voters and ask them who they're voting for

Yeah, that RCP average of 5.8 for Paul in Michigan was way off

Oh and NH and Iowa too

 

[BLS]

9% is good...and the growth is fantastic.

What we need is a 2nd place finish.
Something that says "Ron is a legitimate candidate".

Of course, a Win would be HUGE.

 

[itsnobody]

We need some type of plan to win Nevada

But how?

 

[Paulitician]

I only partially trust the polls. I think they're correct when they say Ron Paul has low support, and that everything needs to be done to get the word out, but most importantly, "get the votes out" as it were.

 

[paulitics]

pattern: 1 to 2 weeks before the primary, the polls begin to accurately reflect the support of between 7 and 12% for the state.

 

[tnvoter]

Giuliani has received the most money from gambling company's, we'll still beat him.

 

[acroso]

WOW....
PauL NEEDS a third place finish for Christ's sake....I read many S.C. voters liked him a lot but thought he didn't havea chance at winning so were supporting someone else.

 

[AlexMerced]

the difference in NV it that it's a closed caucus with very little media attention, so low tunrout, we would of done a lot better than the polls in the other states with a normal turnout

 

[OKRonPaul]

honestly a third in one of the next couple caucuses/primaries would feel like real progress to me. If we can continue to top fred & rudy, but beat one of the top three someplace it will make me quite happy. NV looks like our best chance so far, huck isn't that far ahead of us.

edit:i'm an idiot and assumed that was huck in front of us. I still think a 3rd would be progress. anything better is a big deal.
