    no sorry that was just me being a dick. but, you vehemently disregard any news outside the mainstream media. the problem with that is the people who run those stations get to choose what the content is. ron paul hasn't gotten any air time INCLUDING the debates where he is cut off so his message doesn't get out. now, im not saying its a conspiracy, but i am saying that for info on ron paul, cnn/fox/msnbc etc. are not the place to go. do you think the official ron paul campaign would come out and publish that they got 3 delagates in a trade for support for huckabee in WVA if it really wasn't true? that would be a nightmare.

    look i didn't vehemently disagree with anything. If it was such a definite fact, though, you're gretaly suffering from major, Ronpaulisapersecutdmediaignoredrevolutionaryworldsavioritis if you want to insist that major, reputable news sources are refusing to report Paul's whopping three delegates out of prejudicial bias against Paul. i could honestly care less whether the fucking guy negotiated his way into 3 fucking delegates or not. Its a stupid argument and though i'm still unconvinced, i sincerely don't care and won't argue about it anymore. As far as the typical Paul supporter "you don't support Ron Paul so your a dummy" line... stfu.

    No. You are reading CNN obviously. It's not winner take all. Just like Maine wasn't, and Lousianna and Nevada.

    This whole process is fucking retarded, no matter who you support.

    I don't get fucking lazy shits. Go move back to your gutter homes, and beg for beer money.

    don't get upset at them, they are brainwashed by the MSM

    it's just a fact, they believe everyword they hear on that idiot box

    i will still vote for Ron Paul no matter what

    i live in Texas so even if it's evident that Paul is going to lose i will still vote for him on March 4th

    face it the whole system is corrupt, and most people like Mister Asshole here don't really care anyway

    they get off on kickin' people when they are down

    you shut the fuck up. show me where i said "you don't support ron paul so your a dummy." dont lump me in that crowd. i called you an idiot for ONLY reading/listening to 1 side of things. but of course you'd read it a different way.

    By the way you know nothing about what i do, where i live, or where i get my beer money. Blow me.

    Reputable???????????

    hahahahahahahaha

    so your sayin that CNN, Fox, and MSNBC is the "truth".........

    they lied about 911 and the Iraq War

    The Huffington Post is more "reputable" than your news sources

    WSAZ has learned that Huckabee will give three of his 18 delegates to the Ron Paul campaign in exchange for the support in West Virginia.

    "We struck a deal with the Huckabee people. They came to us and dealt with us honorably and with respect. And so we told them that if Dr. Paul didn't make it through the first round, that we would go for their man. They pledged us three delegates to the republican national convention," Edward Burgess, Paul campaign spokesman, told WSAZ.

    kind of sounds like sympathy sex.

    is there a better kind?

    but in reality, without paul's delagates' support, huckabee would have not had a majority vote and would have lost the winner take all to romney. huckabee needed paul's support there. it was a good deal for him.

    the man is dragging single digit percentage vote totals. he has like 9 delegates total. he's losing to "uncommitted" delegates 23 to 9. he's got about as much chance as a fart in a tornado


    ebay isn't evil people are


    The South is Much Obliged
  • He's in 4th fucking place, and has been since the beginning! i like the guy, and wish he would win, but you cant expect the media to give a shit about a 4th place candidate.

    What a joyful week...first the Pats, then that dirty selfish fuck with no regard to history Ron Paul taking diggers. What's next a revolution by the left complete with health care, rise in min wage, tax raises for rich corporate fucks, upgrades in inner city schools, and the demolition of Wal-Mart? I can only hope.
  • Found a nice quote. At least I caucused for Obama in Idaho last night... 80%... woohoo ... stupid California.
    A friend of mine asked me tonight, “Should Ron Paul just quit? I never hear of him on the news so he can’t be doing very well today (Super Tuesday).” Here is my reply to him:

    I don’t care what the liberal media is saying, he has,

    2nd place in Nevada

    2nd place in Louisiana (possibly first once they get it sorted out)

    2nd place in Montana

    2nd place in Maine

    3rd place in Utah

    3rd place in North Dakota

    There is about 21 more states left to vote,

    He has plenty of money,

    No one has even close to enough delegates to take the nomination,

    He has the only true Republican stance on the issues,

    He is the only candidate who believes our government should follow ALL of the Constitution,

    Quit?

    Not even close. Keep fighting, Ron Paul is!
    Love is more important to me than faith.
  • 2nd place is the first loser, especially in republican primaries. he hasnt won a majority anywhere yet.

    Mike Huckabee wasnt being paid attention to by the media either until he started WINNING. When he stopped winning, the media stopped paying attention.

    life is just not fair.

    That's a fair point, but while Huckabee has not received as much press as Mcromney, he has received a lot more press than Paul. I'll grant that he was just ignored in the last couple debates... a little. But, not as much as Paul was ignored.

    And you're right. Life is not fair, and our primary/caucus system showcases that nicely.

    I caucused for Obama in Idaho last night. 80%. Great. They are virtually tied in delegates, but ... oh wait... There are Super Delegates too.

    Super Delegates shouldn't count. How does some elitist party official count more than my entire precinct, let alone my entire county?

    Illustrating that Democrats are just as crooked, if not sublty more so, as Republicans.

    :D

    If you think caucauses are "elitist", what must your take on "super delegates" be?

    Sheesh.
    :D

    You get the good nametag stickers if you're a SUPERdelegate.... and padded chairs.

    I think the metal detector/ name badge rules are different too if you're special like that... I'll have to ask Cynthia...
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.
  • If you think caucauses are "elitist", what must your take on "super delegates" be?

    The whole thing is ridiculous. I can see why we are moving toward a socialist, "do it for me please", society.

    At least socialism is more honest than this "faux freedom" we have now.

    FYI socialism isn't intended to be a "do it for me please" society, it's intended to right the ills of society whereby the few can continue to take advantage of unearned privileges and the many get the shaft.
