What do you expect Ron will get in NH?

[Alex Libman]

What New Hampshire has going for it is already being the most libertarian state in the nation before it was chosen by the Free State Project, all the things the FSP members have done thus-far, "Operation Live Free or Die", etc, etc, etc.

What Iowa has going for it is corn exports, Tom Arnold, and a bunch of binge-drinking old farts who believe in talking snakes.

Don't even dare compare the two! Ron Paul will win NH!

4th, maybe 3rd. I don't think there is enough time to boost the total higher.

 

[jupiter]

i would be very very happy (ecstatic) for a 3rd place finish

 

[CelestialRender]

I'm reasonably expecting a 3rd in NH; hoping for a 2nd.

But again, let's not get too excited. The trolls had a field day last night playing on people's fears.

But then there are so many other events before Tsunami Tuesday. Some of which people forget about.

I take a look at the straw poll results.

Straw Poll result of Iwoa in Ames was a 5th place as we saw today.

Tomorrow we have Wyoming and republicans only and one straw poll with the clear winner Romney and one smaller poll with the winner Paul.

I think Wyoming is the perfect state for Romney and Paul somewhere between 2-6.

2-6 because i really don't know what to expect.

The New Hampshire straw poll results are absolutly clear pro Ron Paul.

Three polls three times with results like 66-10, 73-3, 182-22 between first and second place.

Important is that Paul won early polls in july and august as he was not so well known as now.

So i expect a bigger basis of supporters and an absolutly must is first or second place.

Realistically, I think we will get 4th. If OLFD starts doing actual work, instead of just sign waving (just what I've heard from my sources) then we could pull off a solid 3rd place.

After working 12 hour days in Iowa and seeing a 5th place, I'm not too optimistic anymore.

Stay optimistic for the next days. If poeple take a look into the forums and see that we are doubtful of the victory we loose voters.

We have to be optimistic.

 

[shagywashere]

Agreed

 

[romeo2]

lowballing for 5th place.

 

[gaazn]

third.

nothing is wrong with third. one step at a time. for you football fans, think of it like the bcs in football. did kansas lose confidence when they were ranked low in the polls and no one noticed them? slowly they moved up and now they might finish second after a big victory yesterday.

 

[CapitalistRadical]

I'd like the best, but, I don't really care. Let's keep up the fight just as hard, whether he's in first place or last!

 

[abruzz0]

LOL, I agree, I say he will get 8th place, behind Duncan Hunter and Alan Keyes.

lmfao

 

[shagywashere]

Alan Keyes will be first Ron won't even get 1 vote.

 

[ClayTrainor]

i only care about beating mccain in NH... our position doesnt matter as much as beating mccain does!

Ames, Iowa straw poll results
8/11/2007
5th place
9.1%



TRY TO LOOK AHEAD TO THE BIG PICTURE...next stop....New Hampshire.

Strafford County, NH straw poll results
8/18/2007
1st place
72.2% of the votes

Manchester, NH Straw Poll
9/16/2007
1st place
65.0% of the votes

Yeah, I think the straw polls are a more accurate measure of support than the phone polls. It's much easier to answer the phone than it is to cast a ballot.

 

[merrimac]

I voted fourth because it is critical that we shake off this over-confidence. He's not going to get first, second, or third unless we make it happen. The Iowan Ron Paul supporters who heard of Ron Paul and knew he was speaking the truth but decided to stay home should be absolutely ashamed of themselves right now. Our country is burning and if you are unwilling to take a few hours out of your life to help it, you almost deserve to be classified as a traitor.

 

[thoughtbombing]

We're polling even lower in NH than we are in Iowa.

take the signs on the lawns in NH poll and we're winning.

 

[aspiringconstitutionalist]

I'll say 5th. After last night, I guess I have to hold the polls innocent until proven guilty. Prove me wrong, NH.

 

[colecrowe]

McCain 29% (Not all of the voters will be anti-war--not even close, so he will win, but his showing in Iowa will hurt him, as well as the Polls not showing Paul's true support)
Ron Paul 20% (But a ton of voters will be anti-war--if we get the vote out 20% is extremely probable)
Romney 19% (Romney will lose support due to his negative campaign, and support going to others like Thompson and Huckabee based on Iowa, and the polls not showing Paul's true support)
Huck 16% (He will definitely pick up a bit from Iowa, but NH will still reject him)
Giuliani 9% (I don't think he will lose much support even due to Iowa, he is the perfect sheeple candidate)
Thompson 7% (he will pick up because of his 3rd place in Iowa)
