SOLID 4TH ---(coming from zero) HOW DO COMPLAINERS MISS IT

Total Vote Count -- Combined IA, NH, and MI Results
Posted by Nick Bradley at January 16, 2008 08:08 AM

Here are the combined vote totals for IA, NH, and MI:

Romney - 443,139 Total Votes – 36.89%
McCain - 361,546 Total Votes – 30.10%
Huckabee - 207,308 Total Votes – 17.26%
Paul - 84,554 Total Votes – 7.04%
Giuliani - 50,925 Total Votes – 4.24%
Thompson - 49,198 Total Votes - 4.10%
Hunter - 4,567 Total Votes - 0.38%

Paul is in a solid fourth, increased his percentage lead over Giuliani by 300% in Michigan, and should stay in fourth through SC and NV, where Thompson and Giuliani will close the gap in each state. In other news, the latest CNN/Politico/LA Times California poll has Paul at 8%, with no candidate garnering more than 20% in the poll. The poll had a huge margin of error (6%), which makes Paul and four other candidates technically tied in the Golden State.

Another post about last night was VERY GOOD...

Agree - imagine how disheartened the candidates and their followers will be when Ron Paul adds another $5 million give or take on MLK day....
Its going to be AWESOME....
Imagine on the first quarter of 2008 Ron Paul has $25 Million in his WARCHEST and everyone else is broke or owes so big (like McCain) they cant borrow anymore...
SUPER TEUSDAY IS GOING TO BE SUPER TEUSDAY FOR RON PAUL AND THIS IS HIS *SECRET* STRATEGY...
Thompson is due to bow out.... Ghouliani is loosing support in his only state he calls his Florida - by then he will be in 4th or 5th behind Ron trust me...
Huckabee will be lackluster and the media will tear him apart...
A MORMON cannot do ANYGOOD AT ALL IN THE SOUTH...
And McCain is going to shoot his mouth off til he kills himself... wait and see...
And the other candidates will TEAR EACH OTHER APART WHILE RON PAUL GETS IT ALL...

Points made why last night was very good...

It was Romney's fathers State..... this is his last good showing - THE SOUTH HATES MORMONS... and consider it a fringe fanatic religeon....
ROMNEY IS DEAD IN THE SOUTH.... THIS IS A FACT...
McCain is shooting himself in the foot EVERY TIME HE SPEAKS....
McCain lost one of the ONLY STATES that voted for him in the last presidential election... THIS IS A MAJOR BLOW...
Huckabee is only doing GOOD...
THE MEDIA TRIED TO WRITE OFF RON PAUL and he was expected to place LAST by all accounts because of the media trying to smear him...

THIS IS SUPER - Ron Paul has NOT been written off the ticket - this is WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT.... if he had done badly THE MEDIA WOULD HAVE SLAMMED HIM AS OVER AND DONE WITH...

instead its THOMPSON AND GUILIANI THAT ARE BEING WRITTEN OFF...

READ THIS THREAD please - last night was very good because...

Read all the comments following... last night WAS very good for reasons mentioned... we ARE gaining momentum....
When Ron moves up to pulling THIRD and then SECOND and then hopefully first ETC.... the news media is running out of what place they can cut Ron Paul off....

voters haven't chosen yet

The dog and pony show of Mitt, John and Mikey juggling 1-2-3 is going to end quick and the ballot tricks and msm media blackout is getting more and more difficult to pull off every day Ron is still around, I LUV IT!!!

I cant BELIEVE THIS.... Every single NEW ARTICLE SHOWS ONLY

The top THREE candidates and dont even mention Ron Paul... this is so SLANDEROUS its PATHETIC...
I am just so, so, so ANGRY... This is MEDIA CENSORSHIP across the whole internet.... I can even see the newspapers tomorrow... only showing the top three candidates...
What happens when Ron Paul starts showing in third place... only print the top TWO candidates... and then when he wins second place only showing in papers the top winner...

I just cant believe it.... every single friggin article on the internet IGNORES Paul and only shows the top three..... disgusting...

it is working against them...The cat is already out of the bag.

Use your anger and talk to the next 3 people you see when you go out. If you aren't going out. Then go out to the store or somewhere.

Media Bias

It's worse than ever, but this works for Ron too. People are noticing, albeit slowly

It's Always Been That Way

You think this is bad, do you have any idea who the Libertarian candidates are?

That's just the way it is, anything else is "also ran". ;-(
That's O.K., were only one place behind and closing.
We'll get there. ;-)

Stop looking at percentages

The percentages are misleading, look at the hard numbers. Ron got over 50,000 votes! That is something to be proud of.

Crushed Giuliani

Sounds like a bad cocktail.

Go Ron Paul!

17 of 32 delegates in

17 of 32 delegates in Jefferson County WV

As of tonght

We have what, 2 delegates..We can't influence the convention with that....Stop with the troll nonsense...How could you possibly spin this as we are the front runner....I think watching Fox is rubbing off on you..And Rudy and Fred have been in the toilet for a good while..Rudy is done and only the south can save Fred

From Wyoming

We are sending many RP delegates to our State Convention where we will choose 2 more NATIONAL delegates. not to mention we are still working on educating the current delegates who are going to MN in Sept.... Don't forget... not all the delegates will have their candidates in the race when Sept comes... those votes are not wasted yet.

***wants are unlimited, means are scarce...***

2 Delegates? RP had that after IOWA

While I agree it's illogical to call him a front runner because Romney is the one in front, but he's no longer a fringe candidate. Who he's beating in the primaries is only part of this, money is the other part. He has the money for a fight that Huckabee, McCain and Giuilani with his poor turnouts can't compete with. One or all of these guys will be gone soon and the race will be down to Romney and Paul.

Hillary has been consistently strong on the democrat side and that's good for us too, because if Paul wins the primary he can win against Hillary. Let them talk about their records on the war. Let her talk about her plans for social programs and have Paul point out that with what Comptroller General David Walker is trying to explain to the country, that isn't going to happen.

We have hard work ahead but our position is more hopeful than weak.

hmmm... I read today that West Va. gave him

hmmm.. I heard today that West Va. dedicated 17 out of 32 delegates for RP.

Link

can you give me a link to that, I'd like to see it..Was there a caucus there or what..if you're correct that's great news..We needs votes and delegates not just claims of being a front runner,,We are however the front runner in raising money

my husband read it on a link here today

may husband was telling me about it earlier today. He said he read it here and that there was a link on it, but I don't know where it is at. He said that West Va. was tired of teh other states having so much control over the elections so they went ahead and sent their delegates.

I am pretty sure that what

I am pretty sure that what that is, is at the county level they elect delegates who go to the state convention and duke out who to send to the National Convention. I think they can only give a few, but 17 out of the 32 delegates selected to go to state are RP supporters.

We are beating the frontrunners again and again.

Giuliani is one of the biggest names in American politics. His name recognition is through the roof. We are crushing him. Keep the pressure on folks. Sign up as a precinct captain.;

MSNBC

hasn't showed anything but top 3 all night. Not 1 mention of RP.

2 HOURS and not *one* RON PAUL word/name mentioned...

This is just FRIGGIN NUTS!!! I have been listening to Fox while typing on dailypaul.com for 2 hours - NOT ONCE have they mentioned Ron Paul.... lots of Guiliani, Lots of Thompson (in fact two interviews) and not one mention of Ron Paul's name...
I know everyone here on this board knows about this and the media black-out of Ron Paul...
but this goes so far beyond *fair and balanced* WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT ZONE HERE!!!!

MSNBC No Mention Either

I just watched my DVRd after-election coverage on MSNBC. No mention of Ron Paul. At the end Chris Matthews says OK, Mitt Romney won, now about the other 5, Romney, McCain, Huckabee, Giuliani and Thompson. Unbelievable! Are they owned by Fox?

On CNN at least they showed Paul on their pie chart in 4th.

Go Ron Paul!

I'm going to come through the computer and slap you!

Don't watch Fox...

I didn't even turn on the TV last night.. CNN or anything.

Besides they have that banner crap running across the bottom. You don't know what subliminal junk is going in your head.

If you can't get of the Faux juice then throw your damn TV out.

You will be so much happier. I no longer watch any news and I'm the happiest I've been. I no longer search Ron Paul news either.

I do spend to much time here. But, the rest of the time I spend working or canvasing, or contacting new voters.
