Which is still more than Paul will receive if 100% of his likely voters actually do vote for him.

80% of statistics reported in this forums were put together by talking, rabid squirrels.
I'm 75% sure that statement is true.
And 59% certain that I'm actually writing this.

They're sending a blimp into a Nor'easter? This should be fun. And symbolic.

The blimp is staying in SC until the Nor'easter passes. They were hoping to be able to get it up to Boston for the tea Party rally on Sunday, but , oh well.

The political climate in New Hampshire is incredibly favorable to Ron Paul.
I agree but it won't matter. Virtually identical words were used to describe John McCain's New Hampshire run in 2000 and look what happened. He won NH only to get amBUSHed in South Carolina by GWB's dirty tricks crew.
The party establishment simply will NOT allow this type of candidate to flourish. And they control so much of the apparatus that they can almost guarantee a result in their favor. Even if Paul could somehow overcome that, the fact is that the Republican base today is philosophically 180 degrees away from Paul!
Those things aren't going to change in three weeks, folks.
Selling Ron Paul to Republicans is like trying to sell war bonds at a Grateful Dead show. Or nooses at an NAACP convention.
I mean, come on.
Now I'm not saying its futile to support this fine man as a catalyst for a potential movement but as far as him securing the nomination?
It ain't gonna happen. 
Ron Paul needs to run as an independent to fully tap into his support. I saw an interview with him last week and he left just the slightest of room open to do just that..
