Paul limps to 4th place

[Ocotillo]

Time for the white flag Paulbots. Wake Thompson up and take him with you.

[AFBlue]

are you joking?

feb. 5 is the decider

Agree, though I don't give him a snowball's chance in hell...

He actually came out stronger in this primary than in any other to this point, IMO.

[AFBlue]

so giuliani is done too?

He may not be, but just think about where he might be if he'd actually decided to compete in New Hampshire and Michigan.

He might not have won both states, but I don't see how finishing near the bottom of the pack on every primary/caucus held to date helps his candidacy on a national level.

Perhaps it was a money thing, but there seems to be a seriously flawed logic for that campaign.

Yeah, hate to burst your bubble, but all this doesnt mean shit until Super Tuesday.

If after that hes as far back as he is now....you'll be right.

:lmao Yeah, Paul is right on the cusp of breaking out.

No, he obviously isnt. I think most here are realistic about Paul's chances at the Repub nomination.

That being zero.

actually, it's less than zero. in many ways, it's too bad.

AP: Ron Paul Could Win Nevada
By: Jane Hamsher Wednesday January 16, 2008 3:07 pm



Polling accurately in Nevada is tough to do, and ARG has Ron Paul in fifth place (9%) while Research 2000 has him in sixth (6%). But the Associated Press says the Paulistas just might strike it rich in Vegas:

Republican candidates have stayed away from the diverse electorate and unfamiliar electoral landscape as Nevada voters weigh in earlier than ever before.

No major GOP candidate has set foot in the state for two months, and some Republicans are bracing for a possible surprise first-place showing by long-shot Texas Rep. Ron Paul, the only Republican to broadcast TV ads in Nevada.
He beat Rudy Giuliani like a drum in Michigan. And the Michigan GOP thinks McCain won. The party is in complete disarray, with a pack of flawed candidates and no clear winner emerging. It's hard to imagine anything making the GOP presidential race any more chaotic, disorganized and comical than it is, but a Paul victory in Nevada could do it.

It's a long shot, but I'm pulling for him.

an uncompromising man is easy to follow....go ron paul.

It would be nice if the AP report had something, anything substantive to back that up. All signs point to a Romney win in Nevada.

[pussyface]

:lmao Yeah, Paul is right on the cusp of breaking out.

winning isn't everything, fuckface. i'd rather support a principled loser than rally behind whichever fascist you and the other idiots wind up waving the flag behind.

thank you for your relentless cheerleading of the warfare/welfare state. you must be a really intelligent person.
