For the past 6 months members of this forum have proclaimed in unison that New Hampshire belongs to Ron Paul. Let's be honest. No one here 6 months ago thought Ron Paul would finish 5th in New Hampshire. No one thought even 1 month ago that he would finish 5th in New Hampshire. And yet here we are, on course for 5th place.

The demographics of New Hampshire likely Republican primary voters are better on paper for Ron Paul than any other state in the union. New Hampshire likely Republican primary voters are more independent, more against the war, more for bringing our troops home within the next 2 years, than any other state in the union.

It's even home of the so-called Free State Project.

We must win states if we are to have any chance of winning the nomination. We can not win by attrition. The campaign has said that unless we are able to raise and spend another approximately $23 million in advance of the 22 states on February 5th Super Tuesday, that we will be unable to compete in those states, we will be unable to makeup our deficit in name recognition, and those states will default to the mainstream media favorites.

So, my question is, if not New Hampshire, where do we win?
 
Michigan.

Democrats get no delegates.
Obama, Edwards, and Richardson not on ballot (to avoid pissing off Iowa)
***Open Primary***
Huge Arab-American Population
Economy Sucks - Democrats in charge

We focus on the war, civil liberties, and the economy. Get Democrats to cross-over and send a message to the Republicans/weaken the pro-war Republicans
 
You can't win when they own the voting machines!
It doesn't matter how much support we have. Haven't you figured it out yet!

This is what I'm hoping for as well, but will this help send any kind of message to the GOP at large? You know the media would spin a high finish in Michigan as only being from a huge turnout from the disenchanted Dem's, and therefore it shouldn't even be considered by the GOP for future primaries.

We needed a decent finish in a closed primary before a good one in an Open. But I'll take any win or high finish we can get right now.
 
In defeating neocons and educating America about sound fiscal/foreign policies, it has bee a great accomplishment already. It takes time to build organization but everyone is talking about what Ron Paul has been advocating. Change and Hope.

Dircha, do you support Rudy or Ron Paul?

What is a victory for us? 1st place? If we couldnt get 4th nevermind 1st in new hampshire of all places, then we wont anywhere in the country. To me this is about the message now which is why I will continue to follow the journey.
 
Florida

Send slim jims, banners, yard signs...any signs, whatever you have

We can put it to good use.
We will in turn pass that material on to the next state.
In the end, we will have the last state covered in Ron Paul signage:D

Seriously...get with your meetup groups and help distribute your materials to other states.

NEVADA- where men are men and women are women and hookers, roulette, and even New Yorkers moving to Vegas are allowed.
