[A bunch of claptrap about evil mutants removed] ...But he wasn't a factor in Maine, where Romney narrowly defeated Paul, capturing 39 percent to Paul's 36 percent of the vote, according to state Republican chairman Charlie Webster. Santorum and Gingrich, who didn't actively campaign in Maine, won 18 percent and 6 percent respectively. The Maine vote totals reflected about 84 percent of the state's precincts. The contests scheduled for the coming days -- including an entire county that postponed its caucuses because of a snow storm -- will not be counted, according Webster, the state GOP chairman. "We're not going to even accept the ballots. No one's going to keep track of them," he said, noting that those were the rules established by the party.

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one. "If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.” —Samuel Adams
It's depressing. I feel like I'm grieving already for a relative who hasn't passed quite yet.
Now that I've calmed myself a bit, WTF is the campaign going to do to challenge this criminal malfeasance? He cannot just ignore 84% of the citizens' votes. Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson 4um: Rep. Ron Paul not conceding Maine vote But in Washington County, where Paul had expected to perform well, the caucus was postponed until Feb. 18 due to an expected snowstorm. Washington County Republican Chairman Chris Gardner told the AP he had no idea when the caucuses were postponed that his county would no longer count toward the grand total.
I believe they counted 84%. Those not yet polled because of the storm are the remaining 16 percent, more than enough to put Paul over the top. And, the courts (peopled by political animals) will likely uphold the party rules because it's obvious that RP is a threat to the comfy status quo; the MIC, the Zionist Choke Hold Lobby, The Friends of Rockefeller-Clinton-Bush-Cheney who are still strip mining the treasury, Big Oil, Big Pharma, etc.,. Maine is lost, I believe. We may as well give up any hope of restoring our country through the ballot box. ""Give me control of a nation's guitars and I care not who makes the laws".

I'm not going back through all the threads to find it, but there were only three counties completed, and only 16% of the vote counted. Paul 43% Willard 33% Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson Even the headline says 16% of vote counted. What a joke. Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson Paul 43% Willard 33%

Thanks for the help.

Paul 43% Willard 33% Probably true. Paul is as welcome as a PUB as David Duke was as a DEM. Both were a threat and both were hosed by their own parties. ""Give me control of a nation's guitars and I care not who makes the laws". (Apologies to Mayer Amschel Rothschild)
