I cannot buy Romney getting that many votes in comparison to others, just does not fit the equation.
agreed.. but the amt of $ he put into Iowa.. still doesnt change his msg does it?
Considering he didn't buy votes...he didn't spend the money there that others did too....HIS message is what gets people NOT the money!!!!!
Ron Paul 2008
Ron Paul said he spent ($200 per vote) 10 times less than Romney ( who spent $2200 per vote). Ron Paul campaign was in Iowa for one week, the others were there 3 weeks or more.
And Ron Paul said he is staying on message. He doesn't pander.
Romney is a non person in this campaign. Offers nothing except the same old refrain, more aid here there etc etc. For a bland non person to get over 4000 votes does not fit the vote amounts for the others. Zip..Of course, just perhaps the voters in Iowa are not too bright?
Jeff's about to shut down, but he repeated that the campaign's goal was to make the top 5, so they made that goal.
I was absolutely blown away by the enthusaiasm of Dr. Paul's supporters...wait until they get organized on college campuses as classes kick in about a month from now...the younger generation is the real 'X factor' in the next election.
Yeah thats it.. just a bunch of dolts in Iowa :P Someone from kept shouting 'whats wrong with the machines?'.. yeah what WAS wrong with the machines?
Female voters...they LOVE a pretty boy.
robin... The disparity in favor of a bland non person is difficult to believe.
I agree. They've had that energy all day! They are the future, it's looking better.
well.. I agree Lizza .. btw was that you in the chat room on Justin TV? I never could register.. But my issue is b/c of what I know about voting machines I am very skeptical.. the huge difference in the # of votes for the top winners and those after #3 is odd.. considering the voting machine issue that they had to look into.. just a tad suspicious.. but Im a cynic :P
Romney out spent Ron by 10 times. He spent more time in Iowa. The media gives Romney far more time.
Perhaps we should send Paul a few bucks and a note of encouragement?
Absolutely The Romney crowd won't admit how many tickets they bought.
I had in mind, from 4um posters with note of encouragement.
Nice idea, a group action.
Politicians always like the support of any group, large or small. Looks good on the tally sheet.
I just saw this on another forum: 14,302 Total Votes 12,000 people PAID $35 to vote and didn't?
"You Never Have To Sacrifice One Bit Of Liberty For Freedom - Ron Paul
After today, watching/listening to the campaign through Jeff's camera, I feel much closer to the whole process. These are decent, devoted young people. Most of them are young.
yes Zip that was me!
Ron Paul 2008
The Romney camp paid for tickets.
I thought it was ;)
I call shenanigans on that! No one pays $35 for something and doesn't do it!
Ron Paul 2008
These tickets were purchased leftovers.
someone said somewhere that they couldn't believe that people 30 and younger were actually voting and backing an over 70 year old man!!!! Hey some of us know how to show respect and some of us do!!! Not all of us are vidiets!!!!!
Ron Paul 2008
Good for you! Yes, it is respect. And for someone who deserves it.
Backing an...HONEST MAN...over 70?
honestly
Ron Paul 2008
I can honestly say this is the first candidate that has come along in the entire time my generation has been old enough to vote that has been worth even giving a second look to! Someone once told me that 9/11 was our generations Vietnam, I wouldn't go that far, but I would say that it was our wake up call!!!
Ron Paul 2008
He's the best that's come along since I was old enough to vote, and I'm an old fart...
Did everyone see the news report about Ron's wife being taken to the hospital?
Heart issues... doing better...
I voted for Ike, Nixon, Goldwater, Nixon, Carter(yes, I did) , Reagan, Perot...After that I refuse to say.
We all make mistakes...my parents voted for Bush! EVERY DAMN TIME!
Ron Paul 2008
I either vote for Paul this time or leave it blank.
I voted Reagan, Reagan, Bush I, Perot, Phillips, Phillips...
The vote I have regretted the most was for this Bush. The vote I most enjoyed was for Goldwater because everyone said a vote for Goldwater was a vote for war. They were right, I voted for Goldwater and we got one hell of a war. Amazing part was a few years later I could not find anyone of my friends that voted for Johnson.
Excellent news!
