This will be a brokered convention

Gaining delegates is very important -

For example, listened to Drew Ivers of Iowa and even though we placed 5th in popular vote, we got 3rd in delegates.

This is why SC and Michigan are very importantant

Michigan already attracting also democrats http://www.mlive.com/elections/michigan/index.ssf/2008/01/ro...

this due to fact that that democrats have no delegates awarded. Also critical is the notion that the delegates will be mainly given by districts in Michigan and SC as well many other places - so you need to win few districts.

I don't care if we get people together after primaries, even if they didn't vote for the Dr. (by mistake or sleep) Find out how your GOP elects delegates! Typical caucuses/conventions are populated by the older members and not a lot of them. We MUST flood these events with RP supporters so there are more votes for Paul Delegates than anyone else. Then on to State Conventions - then to Minneapolis!!

Think about that surprise for the media!!
CNN: "First round, and no candidate has the needed majority. Now it goes to a second round during which most state's delegates can vote their conscience.
(2 Hours Later)
CNN: "Holy Crap! Ron Paul in the nominee!! Didn't see that coming!"

4th in delegates...

Submitted by N_G_J on Tue, 01/08/2008 - 23:23.

...after tonight if he finishes 5th again?

Same as Fred in Iowa, more tonight.
Same as Rudy tonight, more in Iowa.

Only McCain, Huckabee and Romney have more, right?

Agree, and here's why...
