I didn't realize Paul had so few delegates. Is there a positive spin to this?
Wait... Santorum has more delegates?

They are counting Iowa and those delegates have not been determined yet.

Are Nevada delegates bound to the caucus results? If so, what's the point of the delegate drive in Nevada?
Nevada's delegates are bound to the caucus results only for the first ballot.
I noticed they were giving Ron Paul 10 delegates after the NH primary (from Iowa too), and Santorum 7 because that was their estimated amount but ever since Ron Paul said during one of the debates that he was 3rd in delegates and thats all that matters, i saw that now whenever they report the delegates they don't post the Iowa projections for Ron Paul but continue to do so with Santorum and Romney. Just possibly more biased media? Or just more paranoia.
Oh and also some super delegates have endorsed Santorum, newt, and romney.

I am a Delegate in Nevada.
To explain briefly, they are bound only in the first round. However, after that, they are allowed to support any Candidate they choose. The total number of Delegates right now far exceeds the Super Delegates that will be in the National Convention, which is where we expect our numbers will be huge, as in landslide levels. At State last time, when the Corrupted Committee found that the Delegates being elected for National were all Ron Paul Delegates, that is when they walked out on us last time and simply shut the convention down. Those people have been replaced with more Honest Committee, so we are expecting they will not try that again.
The point of having as many Delegates as possible in Nevada is because we are the ones that both Nominate and Vote for Super Delegates, not the Committee. If it were the Committe, it would be plainly obvious that not a single known Ron Paul Delegate would be nominated. We have control here, and they dont like that.
The MSM is seeing this as a way to discredit Ron Paul's Electability, by spamming the airwaves (well cable waves and satellite) with "how poorly" Ron Paul did. We strongly believe that we did very well here in Nevada, and the rest should not lose hope.
In fact, you, the person reading this, yes, you, should not count on someone else to secure your Liberty and Freedom for you. Get involved with your local Ron Paul people, become Delegates and Precict Captains, and YOU make the difference. Your Complacency is what will cost Ron Paul the Election. Your Drive and Motivation is what can WIN Ron Paul the Election.

FTW!!
Bottom line, Nevada delegates are bound for the first round by the caucus results. The official count, for the first round of voting:
73 Romney (7 NH, 2 SC, 50 FL, 14 NV)
29 Gingrich (23 SC, 6 NV)
8 Paul (3 NH, 5 NV)
3 Santorum (3 NV)
Huntsman got 2 from New Hampshire. Not sure what happens with them.
