The Official Rand Paul CPAC Thread

[Brian4Liberty]

Jeb coming on. What will the crowd do?

 

[Valli6]

Booooooosh!
I saw people getting up and walking, but now they took the camera off the crowd.

 

[CPUd]

LOL Hannity as backup. That way, if they boo, Hannity could get blamed. It is good though, shows they really didn't know what the reaction would be.

 

[r3volution 3.0]

Is it just me or is RPF running a little slow today?

....I wonder if traffic is way up because of CPAC.

 

[Brian4Liberty]

CSPAN did do one shot of people leaving. Everything else was shots of the rabid bootlic... err "supporters".

Now CSPAN just essentially made fun of the people who walked out...

 

[Valli6]

Supposedly, Jeff Sessions should be coming up. But televised CSPAN cut away, and my stream has Rubio.
Is this still a live feed? edit: apparently it's not live anymore.

Hannity is doing his radio show from CPAC today. He just spent 30 minutes talking about CPAC and all of the potential presidential candidates. Mostly Walker, Jeb and Rubio. He didn't mention Rand at all. The blackout has started again.

Which day will the straw poll results be announced?

Yeah, that's why I think Rand is going to have to win Iowa to get very much attention in the media at all. Otherwise, the blackout will continue.

 

[RichardAlpert]

you're absolutely right; i feel a first place finish in either Iowa or New Hampshire is a must. i still can't believe how close we came in 2012..

it'll be hard, b/c Iowa is full of evangelicals and we have left bad taste there after 2012 (jesse benton bribing for support, leadership battles, etc..), however, it's still a small state to where a very concentrated effort can realistically get us a win! plus, we still have lots of the network left from the last Ron Paul campaigns

 

[philipped]

Those at CPAC must secure winning the straw poll.

 

[CPUd]

Kinda knee-jerk to call blackout every time someone doesn't mention Rand. He can go on Hannity pretty much whenever he wants. In a few months, he will be getting negative press every day.

I'd hardly call that "knee-jerk."

 

[Rudeman]

CNN spinning Jeb's appearance. Basic summary, crowd supported Rand, but Bush made himself palatable enough for the crowd to consider him as a possible 2nd choice (I'd be surprised if that is remotely close to the truth but I'm not at CPAC). Jeb isn't a moderate, he's conservative and some other stuff.

 

[IndianaPolitico]

Found this on bookface (The poster is referring to a random text poll they are mistaking for the actual CPAC Straw Poll.)

"ya if this was .. Rand would be far out in the lead .. which goes to show the tards in wall street is using up all those throw away phones they brought just to txt this poll for cruz .. who is NOT even eligible .. and they know it ..paid and brought to you by goldan saches of which his wife is a ceo .. ya that's right .."

Wall Street people are buying disposable phones to vote in a worthless text poll? Right......

Yeah, it wasn't every show on TV. Just Hannity. But that has been his agenda for months, if not years. Pretend Rand does not exist, name Rubio or Perry or Jindal or Walker or Cruz as the "alternative" to Jeb. And tonight Hannity was 100% Jeb.

Haha ...did you expect anything less?

No. Hannity is an establishment and neoconservative shill. No doubt about that. But he always pretends he is not. He's like Obama. Nothing but lies.
