Who should I vote for at WV Convention if RP eliminated?

Who should I support in WV Convention if Paul eliminated?

  • John McCain the Iran thumper

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • Mitt Romney the flipper

    Votes: 15 28.8%

  • Mike Huckabee the preacher in chief

    Votes: 37 71.2%
  • Total voters
    52
Please not Huckabee. I know he stood up for the lack of speaking time in the debate which was good of him, but can we stop getting carried away with this.
 
Maybe I will just abstain in the event Paul is eliminated. But we have 95 delegates at the convention (out of 1200+-) and so we could push things one way or the other.

Just trying to plan ahead.

Hopefully we can eliminated McCain and Huck and have it just Romney vs. Paul.

no no no. Paul is giving a speech first thing tomorrow morning at the convention in the hopes of swaying the majority of uncommitted delegates. Romney I believe is also going to be there.

We will be the first state tomorrow reporting results.

I think Paul is the only one, but I think we might be able to pick up the mass amounts of Thompson delegates, if the trend from the Fred heads I've talked to continues.
 
I don't know the procedure and rules.
But if Paul really is eliminated, try to vote for a guy called "Ronald Reagan". :cool:
 
Maybe if Ron Paul was using the name Ronald Paul, everyone would get confused and vote for the "Ronald" that is so adored.
 
Looks like we got some Hucksters here. I said Mitt cause we need it to be close if we can't win em all on Super Tuesday.
 
I will be there tomorrow! My friend and I will be the only 2 people in that entire building with dreads...should be interesting.
 
IF you must know, if it was me I would personally just walk out. I would not vote for the others unless I was forced to do so.
 
disagree with them all but vote for he who would give the best chance of continuing the road to a brokered convention... i guess thats huckabee right now?

If you guys managed to get 3 delegates by backing Huckabee you're absolutely genius.

These people suggesting you should have just walked out are total morons.

Ron Paul is not going to win the nomination. Sorry. That is the reality now. Our current mission to get as many delegates as possible and influence the convention as best as we can. Change the platform of the party. Influence the other candidates. Maybe even toss out all the candidates and get a new one that Paul can endorse (Mark Sanford for example).

We're running in the GOP primary to play the game and gain influence. If we just wanted to "walk out" we wouldn't have bothered re-registering and we would have voted Libertarian again.

Play the game or we get nothing for our effort. I don't like losing either, but let's make the best of a bad situation.
