Yeah, kinda like Romney lost his home state to Paul?


No he didn't, Romney won his own Massachusetts by a landslide:
en.wikipedia.org...

72% of the popular vote.

I am using the real numbers. You are using the magic "projected" numbers the media awards based on what they think the outcome will be.

I am using the numbers that are the actual verified delegates that are real existing people. there haven't even been enough state conventions for the delegate numbers you have to exist yet. Do you not understand that you don't vote for the delegates at the primary when people go to vote?

The delegates are chose at the state conventions. That is why Paul has been gaining so many delegates and winning states that he didn't win on election day. How hard is it to understand?

Look at the dates for the state conventions. Also look and see the number of delegates that haven't been allocated in states where the delegates are chosen. Those left over delegates are selected at the national convention. Why do you insist on coming on here and posting about things you are completely ignorant of?

If you can't show me an official link of any kind than you are talking air. Please show me one little link that talks about your numbers. Unless they are not your made up numbers....

I have good standing from others on here that that map has been debunked.

I really have to say I love watching you guys make clowns of yourselves. Do like one second of searching in google.

Paul has been winning states like mad in the past few weeks.
I am not saying he is going to take it all, but he is absolutely still in the race and there is far, SO FAR, from a clear nominee. Texas will secure nothing for Romney.

I mean you OP you don't have to like Paul, but you don't have to lie to make yourself feel better about things.
Get your nose out of the infotainment and you might learn something. You are dead wrong about the delegate count. I am talking real numbers you are talking imaginery ones. I can back mine up, you can't. You know there that those delegates have to be people right? Too bad the ones the news are reporting for Romney don't exist.

No, just no.



Romney won the Massachusetts Republican primary with 72 percent of the vote, so 38 of the state's 41 RNC delegates are legally bound to vote for their former governor on the first ballot at the convention.

Others on here..
LOL.
No it absolutely hasn't been debunked. You can research it yourself. If you didn't do lazy work on your threads and were out to post info rather than troll maybe you would get some flags on your threads.

All you have to do is look for a list of states that have held their state conventions. Any that haven't have not awarded delegates yet. You are posting the numbers that the news THINKS the candidates will have, but Paul has shown that his people are working to make the media's numbers wrong.

No man.. YOU ARE WRONG.

I am sorry, you haven't been paying a damn bit of attention. The delegates aren't bound to percentages like the media has been saying. This has been proven multiple times.

Ron Paul has the majority of the delegates, what part of the percentage doesn't matter, do you not understand? Learn something.

They don't have to vote for Romney in the first round, BUT they just can't vote for anyone else. All they have to do is abstain from voting in the first and move to the second. That is what they are doing. You guys really need to pay attention.

Gogo: All I am hearing from you is that I am wrong and I should research. I have found that one blog with only those numbers. No one else is saying that that blog is official! I consider that research enough!

So until you post a real link about how you magically came to those numbers please stop questioning the numbers and leave the thread, since you obviously cannot back up your silly little claims. Where are you getting your magic numbers? These can be found here on Google: www.google.com...

Says you, its creator and gogo and a few other Ron Paul fans here. That's it! I have not seen it used in an official capacity anywhere else on the entire internet, let alone the MSM.

Well I want you to tell me what you think to be fact about anything, and I can give you many sources saying it is wrong. Blog or not, information is information, and "truth" is whatever you want to be right. Which is why I don't even care for "links" anymore because regardless if it is called a blog or is called news, it is still written by a human being, of whom I do not know, never have known, and never will know, so why would I regard what they say to be "truth" in any situation?

The only time I use links is to try to convince people I am right, but the only "facts" I know come from what I experience. And, I know only what I have seen in Colorado, a state where Santorum and Romney were supposedly tied, with Paul doing worse than nearly every other caucus.

I have explained this to you and it is not hard to understand.

The numbers YOU posted are not real. Prove they are.

Now here is why you can't. The delegates are chosen at the state conventions, only a fraction of the state conventions have happened therefore the delegates HAVE NOT been chosen. So you are telling me that Romney has delegates that have not been chosen? Delegates that DO NOT exist?

You are missing the point of the strategy. Delegates are free agents.
Even if you ignore the numbers I posted (which I don't see why it is so hard for you to believe it still has Romney ahead by 300 delegates) the fact remains that the number of delegates you are awarding have not even been chosen so they cannot be for any particular candidate. They decide the number of delegates and who each delegate is at the state and national convention. Why are you trying to deny this absolute fact?

Wow you seriously just said this?? I thought the point of this whole website was to deny ignorance. That means, to take a story from the MSM and pick it apart, analyze it, and question it. That doesn't mean to make up your own news, pass it off as truth and facts and then don't question it even since it comes from a questionable obscure source!


Thanx for the laughs everybody!

OF course not, they haven't reported anything that puts Ron Paul in a positive light.

Here let me put it in a pro Romney way so you can understand it better.
Ron Paul won the popular vote for the US virgin islands (don't know if you knew that, the MSM barely mentioned it) HOWEVER Romney won almost all of the delegates despite Ron Paul's popular vote win.

Now Ron Paul is doing the same thing to Romney on a much grander scale.

Is it easier to comprehend now?

Yeah, didn't you just complain that the blog wasn't posted on any MSM so it mustn't have truth? By the way, you exist as what? You weren't mentioned or featured by MSM so I guess I cannot listen to a word you say either!

Get outta here! It's your own thread and still I don't think you belong
