Say what you will...as everyone whines about not winning any states but to me I am more hopeful than ever about our country...why you ask?

Well for example when I tuned in to CNN to see the votes for each state and I noticed I think something like 25k in NJ voted for Paul, that is incredible. 25,000 people can think for themselves in my state. With no media coverage and no insane endorsements...25,000 people believe in what Ron Paul stands for and are educated and passionate enough to look into his message and stand behind him.

I don't think I know even 250 people so to imagine these 25,000 people doing what I do- looking at his website, fighting the power of the media frenzied McCain and Romney. It says A TON about us and about our general interest in having what we deserve.

Yup. When I joined this movement, I was hoping to get double digits in at least one state. I'm impressed too.

This is much bigger than anyone could have imagined. That is precisely why we must continue the fight.

There is no reason to be pessimistic...only a reason to have real hope for our country.

To reach so many people without the help of the news, means that people are genuinely behind him and not behind him because of what they see on tv.

I know what you mean. I was disappointed but, I also looked at like there are so many thousands in this state that have woke up to truth. There were like 36,000 in Ga. where I am. All these fellow patriots I'm sure will continue spreading the Revolution message no matter the outcome of the election. This country didn't get like this overnight and want be fixed overnight. I just hope enough people wake-up while we still have a country to fight for. I'm afraid if he doesn't get the nomination many Americans including GOP leaders and corporate media will be wishing they had not silienced Ron Paul. As a Christian, I believe God is or was giving this country a chance to change course before it was too late and like most prophets of warning he sends they are always killed or ridiculed. I pray more wake-up in time.

I think America is waking up slowly but surely. Mathematically if we can prevent McCain from winning Texas and Pennsylvania if my quick calculations are correct there will definitely be a brokered convention. I just hope there's a big turnout for Ron Paul in Maryland. I know I'll be there to vote.

Now if we could get all these folks that are voting for Ron Paul to support the bills he sends to congress like this one to abolish the Federal Reserve...

I wasn't in touch with reality until NH but I definitely see a movement

Can you believe aside from the MSM our biggest enemy has been VOTER TURNOUT

If turnout resembled previous years I think paul would have won a couple states

2nd place in Nevada, Louisiana (possibly first), Montana, Maine, 3rd place in Utah, North Dakota, Alaska. TOP 3 in 7 states. Not bad for a "fringe" candidate.

There are about 21 more states left to vote.

People are pissed.

So, misguided anger will provide us all with 4 more years of the SOS.

Yes the very high voter turnout wasn't anticipated, so while the percantages might seem low the actual # of people voting for Paul is very impressive when you consider that we are up against this:
