What Happens if Ron Paul Wins Texas?

... Lets move on, nothing to see here.

At 6% we are not looking at victory here based on every primary that has taken place. If all the stars align we still have the VOTING MACHINES to guarantee that we lose even if people did vote for our man. It's time to start thinking about how we take this movement to a new level. The March is a key start. We need much more and we ned it soon. I am sure that Ron Paul will be a major part of this but we are not being fair to him or ourselves if we don't start building NOW!!

Is that a die bold state?

...there's no hope.

This is it, folks. I've pushed in. All my money is riding on Texas. I've excused, pooh-poohed, and explained away all other state's losses in the past couple of months. But I can't excuse, pooh-pooh, or explain away a loss in Texas.

Ron Paul MUST win Texas or else (a) he'll likely lose his congressional seat there, too, and (b) the media will have a field day with it. Any candidate who can't win with home-field advantage doesn't deserve to be in the game.

For me, Texas could be Ron Paul's Waterloo.

I suggest that we all e-mail Ron Paul to spend another million dollars on radio and TV in Texas between now and the primary. Spend it Now!! Win Texas!!

With John McCain having a little trouble it would be a great move to give our Good doctor extra momentum by *****spending another million in Texas.

A win in Texas would give this campaign a real *****confidence boost and then I am sure that we could generate another ****large money bomb day!!

Let's also ask if the campaign to send us 100 or more names of Texan's and let us call some voters and encourage them to vote for Ron Paul.

Let's not waste time with lip service lets help now.
I am sending an e-mail like this to Ron Paul right now. Actually I sent it before I posted this because a choice between Hitler (Hill or Oba) verses Stalin (McC or Huck) is as exciting as voting for a King or a Pharaoh.

The most common form of government in the history of the world has been some sort of dictatorship.
Most people in the history of the world have been surf's, slaves, peasants, or peon's. The ruler let's his subject's live in HIS kingdom unless they make him mad.

We want freedom not servitude. We want our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Please send a similar e-mail.

At 6% in Texas..:

Reasons Paul can do well in Texas:

1.He has better name recognition than in Nevada
2.He has come out against the out the Trans Texas Corridor
3.He has a tough stance on illegal immigration
4.His campaign staff should already have a solid grasp of the voting landscape in Texas.
5.+Grassroots effort
6.His stellar voting record.

I will be extremely upset if he doesn't break past 10% in Texas. Informed Texans have NO excuse NOT to vote for Paul!

In early voting in Houston. The polling place is between a democrat neighborhood and a neo-con area of West Houston. There were maybe 5 other voters there, one of which looked like a neo-con, another guy looked like he may support Ron Paul, and the other 3 were voting on the democrat side of the room. There were 2 Ron Paul signs at the polling place. One on the way in, one on the way out. There was an electronic voting system that was not diebold, and gave a paper receipt for participation.

The only person that I have heard talk about politics recently is a Ron Paul supporter. Ron Paul may have the advantage if the base is well organized and people in Houston participate as delegates. Although my hope is that Dr. Paul wins Houston; my gut is that Huckabee is going to mobilize the churches in the Republican parts of the city to vote for him. He's been playing radio ads down here for a while. Then there are all of the oil men who are chomping at the bit to get 100 year war McCain elected. If McCain drops out before March 4, they will probably go for Huckabee as well.

Of course, Houston is only one part of Texas. Dr. Paul can win Texas, with or without Houston. I think his best chance for establishing a base in Texas is in the smaller cities and towns. That is where the libertarian streak in Texas resides now, not in a neo-con stronghold like Houston. The majority here are happy with the status quo.

Don't forget, HQ states RP delegate count closer to 150 now.

well, I doubt he'll win Texas, but it would be awesome...

it'd be nice if McCain has to drop out for some unforeseen reason... but if he does, I bet Romney will jump back in (since he's only suspended his campaign)...

regardless... Ron Paul will be president... haha, hooray! You heard it here first folks!

They keep adding delegates to the other candidates, but leave Ron Paul at 14. What a sham(e).

Ron Paul BETTER win Texas. This means YOU, Texans! Get out there and CANVAS, CANVAS, CANVAS!!!
