New Hampshire - Best Shot at Winning
Iowa - Ok Shot at Winning
South Carolina - Very Low Shot at Winning
Nevada - Good Shot at Winning
Michigan - Ok Shot at Winning
Florida - Ok Shot at Winning

New Hampshire, Wyoming, and Nevada

Won't be first in Wyoming - only the 980 precinct committeemen/women can vote, and they are likely mostly establishment Republicans. Plus it is Dick Cheney territory.

If we win New Hampshire there will be a domino effect for the other states.

This is how I think it will go:

Paul: NH, Michigan
Romney: Iowa, Nevada
Giuliani: Florida
Thompson: South Carolina

I have no clue who Wyoming will go to.

I agree about FL being the most difficult (but not impossible) state. Of course my only logic behind this is that I'm assuming to many old folks will not "get it" when the hear Ron's SocSec plan.

But I might be wrong ... who knows.

Michigan will be the "shot heard 'round the world"

I agree with this.

I voted three, cause I think he is going to take NH, NV and MI. WY is a possibility, however.

NH - well, guh!
MI - That Ann Arbor clip was so amazing, it seems like there's an army there already.
NV - Heard nothing but good stories from there.

WY - Pretty friendly to liberty, but the R blowback the FSP got there in 2003 makes me question it a bit. I bet Ron's stilll #2 or 3 there though.

NH & Nevada are a good chance.

Is Michigan a closed or open primary?

I think we'll win em all. Once we clinch Iowa it'll be like a snowball rolling down a hill accumulating speed and more snow and debris. There won't be any stopping us is my point! If New Hampshire moves up to December, good! We'll win that one and it'll push us into Iowa. Wyoming will be tough, but once we've proven ourselves they'll realize that Ron Paul is their best chance to retain the White House. Then comes Nevada and Michigan. It's like Old Brooksy said in Shawshank Redemption, "Easy peasy Japaneasy!" South Carolina will then fall as well. If you've ever set up some dominoes and then pushed one over you know what will happen. They all fall down! Getting the nomination is the easiest part. A matchup against Hillary is the real test. The Clintons are very powerful and they know what they're doing. We have to convince the neo-cons that Paul will be good on national security! That is the key! The key!!!!!!!!

the median is three ... but just one would be a major victory

NH - large donor count, rising polling, large TV blitz, large undecided count
MI - Hillary only Dem on the ballot: Dems may want to play in the Republican primary, Ann Arbor as political leader for state is getting great Ron Paul coverage and momentum (and drew 2,000+ at rally), large independent voter block w/ open primary
NV - Northwest US is libertarian country

Ron Paul will take 3 of the 7 early states.

stephen colbert is running as a democrat.

He's running as both, but I happen to think that either Colbert will be forced out of the race due to campaign laws or he will get most votes as a Democrat and not hurt Paul too much.

I agree with NH/MI/NV. I live in Florida but I have no illusions unfortunately that it will go to Rudy, unless there is a SEA CHANGE in people's attitudes. We aren't going down without a fight tho!

Not to mention the complete destruction of the auto industry. Thanks in large part, if not entirely due to the unconstitutional trade treaties.

I think Paul will outright win 3 of the early states.

NH, NV, WY.

Michigan is possible.
Florida will be the most challenging by far!

Very Very unlikely that Ron Paul will win Michigan. We most likely will be stripped of our primary and have a closed delegate election.
