[robert4rp08]

wewt thanks for link

[Give me liberty]

Wheres ron?
I only saw the story on chad :/

[KewlRonduderules]

Is this only on the internet or is it on CNN cable TV?

[LEK]

Absolutely brilliant.
A Strong National Defense....why is that a bad thing?
It's a bad thing if you are for globilaization - he is the only candidate who stands for America.

I am tired of hearing the his Foreign Policy is dangerous. Dangerous for who? Oh, the UN...surely not for the USA.

[robert4rp08]

geesh... his closing statement sent shivers down my spine

[Havax]

One word: POWERFUL!

The Romney guy stepped up very shaky and intimidated by Ron's powerful closing statement.

[raystone]

YEAH ! great speech !!!!!

[LEK]

NO CLAPPING FOR ROMNEY...are you listening?

[280Z28]

That was really good. I'm going to watch this video and see the applause for the other candidates.

[jake]

what a great close by Paul. powerful stuff!

[Mopsus]

We need mooooooore of this FIRE!!!! Go get 'em Dr. Paul! Love it.

[jcbraithwaite7]

I pray that the Mountaineers will come through for Ron Paul. If the country goes to crap that is where my husband and I will be heading... I'll have to become a mountain woman and live up on Green Mountain. While I love the state... I would prefer to keep our country out of chaos... and continue living in sunny Florida!

[GoDrNo]

The man who introduced Dr. Paul was great, and Ron's finish was awesome. Man what a great way to start the day :D

[Ethek]

Did you see that half of the people were sitting.. squirming a bit as Ron left. Probably McCain people since they didn't clap for Romney.

[MGreen]

That was fantastic. In a fair world, that would bring in hundreds of WV delegate votes. Unfortunately...

[cliche]

Awesome! I thought it was a Ron Paul rally when I tuned in because of the massive applause and cheering.... then they announced Romney was up next. The place went dead. Too funny.

It just got a bit louder though. Maybe they are just recycling supporters through.

[LEK]

Are y'all still listening?

[robert4rp08]

Are all of the delegates in that room?

[LEK]

Gonna be sick...plastic man turns my stomach...turning off the live stream...

[GoDrNo]

Mittens is just so.....greasy...he just makes me ill.

[TonySutton]

Romney trolling for Fred and Ghoul supporters... he has no class

[Ethek]

ooo.. not sure what Mitts invoking the name of Guiliani in WV does for him. His pandering to Fred in WV is a little obvious though

[limequat]

We got a good shot in WV. Go WV!

[Ethek]

I bet Mitt relates it to the constitution...

[robert4rp08]

lol i can't stomach romney any longer!

[BeallCanbe]

I just saw Romney on the stage talking, guess I came in late and missed the speech from Dr. Paul. :(

[Ethek]

I just saw Romney on the stage talking, guess I came in late and missed the speech from Dr. Paul. :(

speeches are about 10 mins. Did they have Ron up first? All of this slime is so nice ad obscuring messages. I was at least hoping to have Huck go first.

[MGreen]

Mitt Romney: I am the state.

[lnieves]

Are all of the delegates in that room?

They said at the beginning that there were 1203 delegates present or represented by their alternates (out of 1207 or so).

[Phantom]

Did anyone youtube Rons speech?

I had to drop a friend off to Malaga airport and missed it.

[Ethek]

Mitt Romney: I am the state.

Yeah, he trounces Democratic ideals.. then repeats them as his own. Hows he going to pay for this.

[GoDrNo]

I love how Mitt doesn't think the rules apply to him...."time limit??? what's that??"

[Ethek]

Mitts so full of it hes got to go longer...

[sgrooms]

is there any way to still watch ron pauls speech?

[GoDrNo]

WTF is this? sing-a-long with Mitt??

[280Z28]

Did he just say McCain had his 51st anniversary??

[Ethek]

Did he just say McCain had his 51st anniversary??

No!! he alluded to RON without even mentioning his name!!! what a douche.

Vote for me... dont waste your vote!! anger.

[Havax]

It seemed like he was about to take a shot at Ron Paul mentioning his 51st anniversary, but instead he continued to talk about McCain. I think he wanted to say that Ron Paul hasn't won a state yet. What a prick.

Regardless, Ron's applause was much more vivid and his exit was extremely more powerful.

[Ethek]

Ugh, McCain is there. I just thought his minion was representing.

[280Z28]

McCain is going to get stomped in WV.

[Ethek]

McCain is going to get stomped in WV.

I hope so... pitching a Dem turned Republican to preach conservative values in WV.

[280Z28]

WHAT????? He just slammed WV!!??

[Ethek]

WHAT????? He just slammed WV!!??

ugh, too bad this guy ins't going last. It makes it so easy for smooth talking Huckabee to sweep in.

[Havax]

McCain didn't show, it's some governor who is absolutely getting embarrassed and booed on the stage. He's rambling about football because McCain is a liberal and there is nothing good to say about him.

[Primbs]

Never a good idea to bring up bad news about West Virginia football teams.

[PauliticsPolitics]

wow . . . this guy for McCain is ruining McCain!

[280Z28]

He said McCain took 41 delegates in LA and that's the final word there.

[280Z28]

This guy needs to speak for McCain everywhere LOL

[Ethek]

He said McCain took 41 delegates in LA and that's the final word there.

Lol, sounds like McCains mom when shes speaking to the Republican party. ' My son is the front runner and your just going to have to like it'

[Ethek]

War war... he ought to know the job of the president is to uphold the constitution.

[Ethek]

Is this airing on the CNN broadcast?

[Ethek]

Haha.. a Governor who flipped parties while in office is vouching for the depth of John McCain's conservatism.

[drexhex]

Anyone have a link to an audio or video stream i can view on linux? I've searched around a wee bit and plan to google more, but if someone already has one please post it.

[pacelli]

Is this airing on the CNN broadcast?

Nope. They showed a little bit of Romney on CNN and that was it.

[280Z28]

What on earth is this guy babbling about? Stumps carved into barking dogs?? :boggled:

[Ethek]

Hmm, so Huck is not there?

[280Z28]

Hmm, so Huck is not there?

I'm pretty sure he is.

[Ethek]

I'm pretty sure he is.

Hmm, the guy introducing Huck is getting an introduction by someone else.

[lnieves]

hecklers == RP delegates?

[280Z28]

hecklers == RP delegates?

Probably. Romney and the McCain supporter made some really provocative statements and absolutely deserved it.

[Benaiah]

hecklers == RP delegates?


I hope not. Just what we need to win over the other Republicans. It's bad enough that we're all hairy and dressed like slobs, don't need to add heckling to it.

[rg123]

anyone have a tube of ron

[GoDrNo]

mmmmmmmmmmmm.......donuts.

[zach]

I don't want those other guys in the state.

:( It makes me feel dirty.

I'd like to see Ron's speech though.. the civic center is a good size for an energetic crowd.

[TER]

Huckabee sounds like he would easily sign the National ID Act.

[GoDrNo]

LOL energy independent in 10 years.....I want what he's smoking.

[TER]

Sounds like RP...

[Verad]

grr, stupid classes, I missed the good stuff.

Any chance that someone youtube'd Paul's speech?

[Phantom]

I was just going to say the same thing TodaysEpistleReading.

I hope that mother hucker drops out after tonights results come in. :D

[GoDrNo]

He's stolen so much from RP sometimes I just wait for him to unzip the Huckabee costume and RP to step out.

[Ethek]

He repeats but does not comprehend.

[Benaiah]

So tired of hearing Huckabee's lame stories.

[Sarge]

Huck reminds me of the big mouse on the Super Bowl ad.

If he wins, he will break through the wall and start beating on everyone that doesn't believe like he does.

[280Z28]

Do we get to watch the whole caucus live? Sweet!

[AlbemarleNC0003]

LOL energy independent in 10 years.....I want what he's smoking.

It's possible. Wind turbines. Over a million of them could be built and placed along our shorelines. It would require a WW2 type effort, but it could put Americans back to work rebuilding our infrastructure. It's an amazing idea, and not Huckabee's.

[zach]

I've downloaded the thing, and it still won't let me play the feed.

Arg.

[pepperpete1]

Huckabee, knows a good thing when he hears it. When he hears the crowd response of clapping and other reactions to Ron Paul's message. Then he incorporates into his own message.

[Mithridates]

Yeah, it's not that hard to become energy independent if there's a will to do it. Though Ron Paul is opposed to government programs to influence the free market, as president he has the ability to call a news conference with every major network at any time, and a simple press conference on changing one's lifestyle to a more environmentally-friendly one would do wonders. Buying smaller cars, asking people to get involved in municipal government to set something up like velib in Paris (and other European cities: that's the bicycle program where you rent bicycles but don't have to return them to the station where you got them from; instead you park it at the nearest station and somebody else can use it), etc. etc. Since making one's country energy independent is a patriotic thing to do, it's an easy sell and wouldn't cost the taxpayer a cent. Just keep bringing up the issue to keep it in the news, and eventually people will follow along.

[quezkittel]

http://www.wsaz.com/political/headlines/15269731.html (another live link gotten from another thread)

voting's starting... *crosses fingers*

[lnieves]

Romney 8
McCain 5
Paul 3
Huckabee 0

[MJfromCT]

If we eliminated federal subsidies then the price of gasoline would rise to a level in which we would have no other option but to make alternative energy a practical solution. Once the alternative energy choices are used at a large enough level, the price of oil comes as the demand shrinks and we have cheaper energy sources for all. Non-Intervention solves many more problems than it creates.

[280Z28]

:woot: we took Boone County

[lnieves]

Paul wins Boon county!!!!

[GoDrNo]

Go Boone County

[280Z28]

Up to now the order is: Romney, McCain, Paul, Huckabee

[..PAUL4PRES..]

[Ethek]

Love the openess of the results.

[280Z28]

Oh burnnnnnn Kanawhat?? County:(

[lnieves]

No one in Kanawha county :(

[Deoptics8]

Charleston had no delegate!!!

[..PAUL4PRES..]

Are delagates given based on these total results? Or........

[pacelli]

Looks like Romney is taking WV from us.

[robmpreston]

jefferson was a lock, we should be able to get :

lewis, lincoln, marion, mingo, monongaila, monroe, pendleton, pleasants (maybe), randolph, taylor, tyler, wirt,

[rich34]

Monagailia county is about all Ron Paul.

[280Z28]

HAHAHAHA he doesn't know the sound is all him

[robmpreston]

[stevedasbach]

How the hell did nobody from the capital vote for Paul !?

Seat of government. What more needs to be said.

[pacelli]

We're listening to the link provided in this thread.

[280Z28]

btw where are you all seeing these results so fast?

We're watching live

[MayTheRonBeWithYou]

What are the rules in this? Is the state winner take all?

[Ethek]

lol at the reporter.

[Deoptics8]

I am stunned that Charleston had 0 delegates. Over 350,000 people live in and around the capital and there no support.

[Phantom]

lol that reporter is dying to say something lol

[..PAUL4PRES..]

This reporter..... Lol

[Ethek]

I am stunned that Charleston had 0 delegates. Over 350,000 people live in and around the capital and there no support.

We were bumped in the delegate co run off by Romney Bots.

[Deoptics8]

he said Romney carried the most states instead of counties... IDIOT!

[..PAUL4PRES..]

Wow. Paul can still win. Reporter explained it. PLEASE give some good speeches people!!!

[280Z28]

he said Romney carried the most states instead of counties... IDIOT!

No, he asked if that was correct. :) He wasn't on the air at that point.

[Deoptics8]

good luck Ron Paul Mountaineers, I got to get back to work.

[..PAUL4PRES..]

Another round of voting with top 3 if no 51 percent come on Paul!!!

[280Z28]

WOOOTTT 20 votes from somewhere!!

[Ethek]

hopefully we pull ahead of McCain.

[Ethek]

Looks like this is a pool camera for all of the local broadcasts.

[280Z28]

Won another county !! 5-2-2-1

[robmpreston]

how is McCain doing so good? all the uncommitted and giuliani supporters?

[..PAUL4PRES..]

I cant really hear the results anymore. Just some dudes standing there.

[Avalon]

I sure hope RP delegates are smart enough to vote for Huckabeast in the later rounds. We need give him some RNC delegates to help ensure a brokered convention.

[..PAUL4PRES..]

I sure hope RP delegates are smart enough to vote for Huckabeast in the later rounds. We need give him some RNC delegates to help ensure a brokered convention.

That is if we dont make it. We are still in it so far.

[Give me liberty]

So WV is a lost cause?

AND HOW IN THE HELL IS MCCAIN AND ROMNEY WINING?

[280Z28]

We have to beat McCain!

[..PAUL4PRES..]

Come on Paul Knock out McCain!!!

[hueylong]

[Give me liberty]

We are closing on McCain. If no one gets 51% the bottom gets dropped and they re caucus.

[280Z28]

:(

[Phantom]

Give me liberty & hueylong Click Here (http://www.wsaz.com/political/headlines/15269731.html#livefeed)

Scroll down to where it says Click here to watch a live video feed of the event.

[Give me liberty]

Well tell me.

[..PAUL4PRES..]

McCains got around 34 votes on us. 135 to 101. We gotta take him.

[hueylong]

Crap. Won't load!!

[Give me liberty]

so in the other words ron is getting close to first place?

[Phantom]

How many counties left to count?

[280Z28]

so in the other words ron is getting close to first place?

No, we need 3rd to not be eliminated for the second round.

[andy mcdee]

are you guys using the cnn link? cause they are now talking about California? if not could someone repost the link, thanks

[Phantom]

No give me liberty, he is last at the moment.

[..PAUL4PRES..]

so in the other words ron is getting close to first place?

No. Romney, Huckabee, McCain, Paul. We need to come in top 3. No one is gonna get 51% they recaucus. So we gotta beat him.

[280Z28]

wtf? 10+2+3=12??

[280Z28]

hahahaha "Hucklebee"

[chandlerLBT]

where's the link?

[..PAUL4PRES..]

Zeros are killing us. Mccain got us by 45 now.

[Phantom]

Looks like we are staying 4th. :mad:

[Janet0116]

Good lord why in the hell are these people talking so much? just give the count

[Minuteman]

These last counties are killing us

[Minuteman]

Looks like we are out of it

[Crickett]

No one in Kanawha county :(

Thats what happens when NO ONE can take on that precinct...

[Bruce4Ron]

Where is the video of his speech in WV ?

[..PAUL4PRES..]

I guess we need to hope Huckabee wins WV.

[Sarge]

I am thinking the same thing.

If we get knocked out and back Huck to keep Mitt and McCain from winning. We can beat Huck in Western Sates.

[quezkittel]

On the plus side, at least mccain isn't going to win West Virginia.

[Minuteman]

Ron Paul is eliminated, so much for the great state of WV

[Phantom]

WTF

"Just say Ron Paul was eliminated"

[..PAUL4PRES..]

WTF

"Just say Ron Paul was eliminated"

I heard that too.

[Tanner]

Perhaps a stupid question / already answered:

Are the delegates able to not vote this time around?

[Sarge]

You can just about bet the Huck people will be trying to get our votes.

I doubt Mitt or McCain would stand a chance with their attitudes.

I would rather see us back Huck as we can beat him. I don't want McCain to get this. Mitt either.

[jaumen]

Yep, heard end of first round is Romney, Huck, McCain, Paul, so Paul is eliminated I guess. So much for WV...

[bolidew]

WV is useless.

[american empire]

I would just walk out NOT vote for any of the shmucks.....

[Phantom]

Here we go again!

[MayTheRonBeWithYou]

Does it sound like RP's votes are going to Huck? Kinda sounds like it.

[Phantom]

Yeah I think so.

McCain will be next to go.

[colecrowe]

youtube?

[A. Havnes]

youtube?
