Fuck The MSM and Fuck The "Straw Poll" Vote.
RON PAUL ROCKED THE FUCKING DELEGATES!
This Email Just in from the Washington State Coordinator!

Hello everyone,
By our very preliminary count from you reports it is looking like we have at least twice the delegates as the other candidates!!
For this day and until the count shows otherwise I want you to congratulate yourselves for WINNING Washington State for Ron Paul!!
I wish I could share every single story I have heard over the past few days and all the happy reports from Ron Paul enclaves in WA towns I have never even heard of!
Please know this…the National Campaign is seeing these kind of successes all over the country…Every day that goes by we have new supporters and new contributers. I can't believe I am saying this…I thought certainly I would sleep for 4 days once the 9th was over…but I am already so excited to prepare for our County Conventions!! The next few weeks are going to be very important…There were stories from almost every precinct about Huckabee and Romney voters changing their support to Ron Paul. Unfortunately some of the biggest threats to the Freedom Revolution can still come from within…our own perceptions…please read Ron's letter again until you see the part that states he we are going to the National Convention! You know things have changed every day in this campaign with new information and new victories changing the course…now we have given him Washington and made the road to the Minneapolis a lot more golden!!
I will update you all when we get more final results…
You all did a wonderful job. Just wonderful.
People SIT BACK AND GET READY,
because IF THIS THING GOES TO BROKERED CONVENTION, and IF they can't get 1192 delegates to pick ONE NeoCon POS ont he first ballot,
ALL THE RON PAUL DELEGATES WHO ARE BOUND and must legaly vote for the straw poll winner in their state ... BECOME UNBOUND AND CAN VOTE FOR RON PAUL.
The number of states where Ron Paul has 50% of the delegates or nearly so is astounding.
We also apparently have a bunch of "plants" ... delegates who will vote for Ron Paul if UNBOUND but who ran as Romney or Huckabee delegates, just to sneak on to ballots.
HEY, POLITICS IS FUCKING DIRTY SHIT!
Fuck The MSM and Fuck The "Straw Poll" Vote.
RON PAUL ROCKED THE FUCKING DELEGATES!

just when rational, sane people start to think that RP supporters can't possibly get any more delusional
do explain how it is that Ron Paul's 20.7% of the vote trumps 25.4% by Mc Cain and 23.8% by Huckabee means that RP won? let alone by a two to one margin? shit, even Romney only got 4% less than RP did.

excuse me while i go and disinfect myself for posting a link to republicans

Okay.
Stop being a dick for a split second and dig this:
The Washington State GOP STOPPED COUNTING THE TOTAL VOTE at about 87% complete.
That was NOT INCLUDING SPOKANE COUNTY, which if you know washington you know to be pretty substantial ... Spokane county which itself was tallying vote counts of about 45-55% RON PAUL when it reached the 40% an 60% complete mark ...
That means with 30% left to go in Spokane, Ron Paul was winning by a relative landslide in a voting district that was of greater than average size relative to others in the state.
And yet, somehow, Spokane County got to NINETY percent complete counting the vote, BUT THE STATE DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO STOP COUNTING FOR THE NIGHT.
Meanwhile, in every state that Ron Paul was getting 5% of the vote, the GOP had NO problem getting 100% vote totals state wide.
As it stands now, as far as i know, Washington State is still NOT DONE COUNTING, and yet the State Gop Chairman has declared McCain the winner.
BUT, BUT, BUT, BUT
WHO GIVES A FUCK
WHO GIVES A FUCK
WHO GIVES A FUCK
BECAUSE
RON PAUL HAS TWICE AS MANY DELEGATE SEATS IN WASHINGTON AS EITHER OF THE OTHER CANDIDATES
Let me repeat that.
RON PAUL WON WASHINGTON STATE,
because he will have BY A LARGE MARGIN, THE MOST DELEGATES GOING TO STATE CONVENTION!
That means he will probably get the most delegates going to NATIONAL convention when the state delegates vote, and that means, he will have a chance to have HIS DELEGATES choose HIM over whichever GOP POS Shill the Neo-Cons are pushing for nominee.
It is still 10 or 20 to 1 odds we're talking about here, but it is WAY better than 1 in a Million. WAY WAY better.
The GOP is TERRIFIED ... seriously.
They are freaking out right now, because the party is getting some SERIOUS backlash over McCain.
People are NOT happy with him!
STATES WHERE RON PAUL IS BELIEVED TO HAVE THE MOST DELEGATES:
Alaska
Louisiana
Washington
Maine (possible 2nd most)
In several other states where he did even worse in the "straw poll" votes (or as the TV likes to call them, "Primaries") ... the caucus results yielded disproportionatly high numbers of Paul delegates ... those would be states like Florida and New Hampshire ... i don't even know about the Super Tuesday states yet ... most of the grassroots is still collecting that info and absorbing it.
So. Anyhow.
If I opened it now would you not understand?
mean's nothing, he'll never win period...to mean something, those that support the cause will need to continue the fight moving forward, if they don't then it's all for nothing.

Oh.
Don't get me wrong.
We ARE carrying the fight forward.
Go look at the Local\State\Federal section of the ronpaulforums ... there are 15 SOLID candidates up for Congress and 1 Senator, and 2 govenors running on the "Ron Paul Republican" "platform" (not official yet) ... and from what i understand the total list of ALL people running is about 40 for congress.
I would say that a "fringe" presidential candidate motivating FORTY congressional candidates is anyfuckingthing but "fringe", FYI.
If I opened it now would you not understand?
Someone on a message bord saying they are going to run for office doesn't change the cause at all. It is exciting that RP is getting people involved in the process, I worry that these people are neglecting how difficult it is to run for office...especially if you are running on the platform of Ron Paul that neither party are a fan of.

we'll see, good luck though, I don't have a lot of faith in the American peoples long term memory, let alone ability to maintain an action.

:rolleyes:
So thats why we have reports of there being "high level" discussions and conference calls that are including the GOP national chairman on "what to do about the ron paul situation" and "remaking the base" to "reflect ron paul's positions" ?
You are nuts if you don't think they are afraid of the fact that, as a party that operates at a VERY thin margin ... meaning they need nearly 100% of their base to turn out to win an election, that possibly over 10% of that base is so dissafected that it is "paul or NOTHING!" ???
If the paul people pull out or boycot this election, the GOP has effectively handed the general election to the democrats.
They know this.
Keep rolling your eyes.
See you at the spectrum.
If I opened it now would you not understand?
Look, it can be said, that if the Edwards, Kucinch and Gravel people "pull out or boycott this election", the DNC has "effectively handed the election" to the republicans.
Something tells me the GOP is not scared of both of Ron Paul's supporters boycotting the election.
haha...did you just accuse me of being a dick? because you don't like the truth? it isn't my fault that the truth hurts you
where in the hell are you getting these numbers to make this shit up with? let me guess? the RP forums.
here's what was on the link that I previously posted:
Statewide Results 2008 Precinct Caucuses:
Precincts Reporting 93.3 %
Candidates Percentage
Huckabee 23.8 %
McCain 25.4 %
Paul 20.7 %
Romney 16.7 %
Other 1.0 %
Uncommitted 12.3 %
if you think that he has won in anything Washington, you are indeed bat shit crazy. they aren't counting the results of any of the counties until after the primary since the republican get 1/2 of their delegates from the caucuses and 1/2 from the primary. if as you say he does even worse in the primaries then that fact plus that you keep insisting that he has "won" is making you look even more koo-koo
so just where in the hell are you getting that he has more delegates?
be careful...you wouldn't want your tears making your tin-foil hat rusty while you're standing on your head, and talking out of your ass

Um.
Like maybe the OFFICIAL Ron Paul Washington STATE COORDINATOR, as per my fucking title post?
I think that info, coming from as official a local campaign source as you can get, is a LEAST as valid as the fucking bullshit GOP or the fucking fucked up fucking Media.
So lick up the guano, senior bat shit.
Seems like you CAN read,
you just are having a little trouble between the neurons.
Fire 'em up, and take a second glance.
Until someone says better, (and i mean better than some bullshit, we haven't even counted ALL the votes, and it doesn't fucking matter to me anyhow because the "primary" in washington for GOP is a fucking BEAUTY CONTEST ... 100% UNBOUND DELEGATES) ...
I'M BELIEVING OUR TROOPS ON THE GROUND.
Because if there is one thing that has proven itself RIGHT with the Ron Paul campaign, its the fucking GRASSROOTS.
So ... insert the letters after R-S-E-O here!
If I opened it now would you not understand?

The system is hodge podge.
I have some complaints, but generaly i think it is fair.
The way the parties MANIPULATE THE PROCESS is atrocious, but that would come about regardless of the "system".
And the system, as Prism is showing, varies from STATE TO STATE.
And remember this ENTIRE process we are talking about is a PARTY process.
What is bullshit is that America is stuck in a controlled two party system. If that weren't the case i would have NO problem with how individual parties run their OWN rules for electing candidates, it is their fucking business.
However, considering our country is so utterly fucked, and we only have 2 real parties that the media will acknowledge, and they are both fucking controlled out the ass by the elite, it IS bullshit.
But i'm not gonna get in to some BS argument about how it is unfair because it is allowing ron paul to possibly fight for a nomination. GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK.
The one time the system works out for "the good guy" and someone is gonna give me shit about it?
JESUS H CHRIST!

No.
I think parties should rightly be able to do what they want.
They are private entitites, right?
Its the fact that the powers that be have a CONTROLLED two party system that is the problem.
Their internal processes are by-and-large fair, imho.
The people MANIPULATING the process are not acting fairly however.
If I opened it now would you not understand?
Of course, you are free to opine it doesn't work, and I won't necessarily disagree.

all you've done is show that since the RP offical state coordinator is fucking DELUSIONAL that it doesn't bode well for his supporters if they choose to believe the offical state coordinator of koo-koos.
I've been a voter in Washington State for 19 years. how long have you been one? you don't even have to bother with saying that you aren't, because you don't even know what you are talking about. in Washington State the primary for the DEMOCRATS is just a beauty contest because the Dems get all of their delegates from the caucuses. however for the GOP they get 18 delegates from the caucuses and 19 from the primary.
DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL:
Open Caucuses
97 total delegates*
78 tied to February 9 caucuses, 19 superdelegates; February 19 primary is non-binding
REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL:
Open Caucuses
40 total delegates*
18 tied to February 9 caucuses, 19 tied to February 19 primary, 3 unpledged RNC member delegates

Well.
If the unbound delegates were Ron Paul supporters,
that would be a start.
If I opened it now would you not understand?
See here,
you are admiting that all the delegates that we are discussing are unbound.
Thus, i would say the vote that occured was a BEAUTY CONTEST.
Woud you not?
Now, the 19th is a different story.
Honestly i did not know (or knew and forgot) that Washington was one of those independent caucus\primary states.
But you are in flat out denial if you don't think Ron Paul just cleaned up on the delegate situation in Washington.
I ask you to offer ANY proof of your own,
Mr. High Falutin.
If I opened it now would you not understand?
Why do you always got to piss on Ron Pauls parade? I think you are forgetting to take into count the "unbound" delegates that will clearly give him the win.

Good stuff.
Though i hope you understand that everything he said was actualy NOT crazy, and that Colbert is attempting humor ... though i think he is being a mild media puppet douche by giving uninformed viewers the false impression that Paul realy is nuts.
I THINK THIS IS THE FUNNIEST ONE, personaly.
If I opened it now would you not understand?
& i'm CERTAINLY not denying that Jlew,
I just think it behooves people on here to admit the fucking truth,
when that truth is that (so far as anyone can calculate right now) Ron Paul is cleaning up in the Washington caucus delegate count.
Instead, i'm being called "dellusional", crazy, Bat-shit ... etc.
WTF gives, anyhow?
BTW,
impressive effort by your little bull friends on slow monday here.
If I opened it now would you not understand?

i'd hope that anyone who watches colbert knows that his whole schtick is satire.
