I wouldn't wish bad weather on anyone, but I know that Ron Paul supporters will vote no matter what. I wonder if it would be alright just this once, to ask for divine intervention and encourage others to pray for a cold and snowy day in Iowa and New Hampshire on election day?

Absolutely not.

For what is God for on this Earth, if not to gain unwarranted advantage in elections and football games.

And to get out of exams that one has not prepared for. :D

The din in Gods ear must be defining.

And clearly there is an automated response against the Buffalo Bills, 4 times in a row, yep, still lose.

I dunno, heh. If he wins though, it will be the Primary vote heard round the world.

i dont want there to be a snow day. i want him to win fair and square. otherwise the media will just write it off as "oh it was a snow day, so everyone didnt come out like they normally would, this means nothing" f-that. i want him to stomp on everyone, especially fox news, and win straight up.

The media will dismiss an RP win regardless of the circumstances. If it's sunny and 60 degrees out, they'll just say that Iowa doesn't represent the rest of the nation. A win is a win, and we need this one more than anything else.

I hope its sunny and 70 degrees. I know we can win in the best weather and I dont want to hear the media offer excuses for the win. "Ron Paul had 20 insanely devout supporters, risk their lives, to go and vote - that's why Ron won".

A win in either case is legitimate, but I'd rather it be indisputable - even in the eyes of the corporatist media.

Well, there IS that story about our founding, when the fog was so thick that the British couldn't see our sniper forces, which ultimately resulted in our victory.

So...why not? ;)

God works in mysterious ways...

This, they will dispute his win no matter what.

I agree, a Ron Paul win in Iowa will try to be downplayed to the Nth degree by MSM.. I can hear them now.. The caucus doesnt mean anything, huckabee won but he didnt get the nom, blah blah blah

Is there some reason you don't want to just pray that Ron Paul wins Iowa? I'm not sure why praying for bad weather is a better alternative.

What will they say when we do well in NH?

If RP gets second in NH, the Meme will be that this is shaping up as a two man race: Romney vs Gingrich. Let's talk about how Gingrich is going to dominate the south.

I'm praying for 46 feet of snow.

When asking for divine intervention, I want a little bit of razzle-dazzle, a little sparkle.

Lets the world know God really was on your side.
