um ... first of all there are two types of nominating elections primaries and Caucasus. Some are open to everyone and some only to members of a party ( or sometimes just people who say there a party to a party. ) Caucuses can be confusing as they often don't count the votes directly. They are more fun because sometimes people just meet up in this school gym, divide by candidate and fight for the people that walk in to stand with them. Bad news tho, ron paul will not win either in any state.

> Does he really not stand a chance?
Of course. Anybody running stands a chance. Look how Ronald Reagan was polling at this time back in 1979 and where he ended up.
What kind of chance does he have? That, I don't know. I don't see the future. However, I have spent a lot of time running numbers and watching current events unfold. I suspect that Ron Paul is going to surprise a lot of people and do much better than the traditional polls would suggest (by 6%, minimum, with good confidence). At the same time, I don't think he is going to do as well as the online polls would suggest. With Huckabee spoiling the "front runners", Paul has a decent chance to pick up delegates in the early primary states.
An interesting turn of events... the rumor mill is claiming that the libertarian party will not nominate a candidate if Paul wins the republican primary and will instead endorse Paul.
Edit: When I say "by 6% minimum", I mean that if he is polling at 8% in a traditional poll, then I expect him to bring in at least 14% of the votes.

Hadn't heard that yet, but I just got home and haven't checked the forum out.
He's tied for third in Iowa, according to the traditional polls, and the two candidates he's tied with, Giuliani and McCain, have pretty much skipped over Iowa. I'm going to go out on a limb here and assert that Ron Paul will finish second in Iowa.
I'm not sure what is happening in New Hampshire. In the traditional polls, he built up to 8% before dropping back down to 5%. New Hampshire seems to be the most favorable state for Ron Paul.... I'm not going to make a prediction yet, but at first I was saying first, now I'm leaning towards second.... 
I've already bagged one Iowan vote for him, my mom has never registered to vote before , and I'm going to work towards getting my grandpa on board when he comes up for Christmas in a few days.

I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of "young folks" home for the holiday season that are going to be doing the same thing with their families.

The most short-sighted thing regarding Ron Paul by the media is how readily they contain him as an "Internet phenomenon". They seem to forget that all of these people work and actually exist in real life (at least to some degree ), and are all very active in real life....

The moment I looked at that picture my brain falsely detected a strong scent of superb grass via my nostrils.

I don't think he's got the presidential 'look'.
Maybe a Prime Minister of Canada look, but meh.
He would have my vote, but I'm not American. Even though I disagree with a lot of his policies, he's still cool.
