Didn't the latest number that reality check 'unveiled' show Romney ahead by over 200 votes? Closer to 300? Is it even possible for Paul to win?

So what does that make the gap? 100?

So we were down 208 votes right? so now we are down to 180ish?

Just need 180-200 out of 300 in Washington County ^^.

ALSO NOTE: Over 300 people are at the Washington County caucus.^^^ THIS is impressive. In Mecklenburg county NC, which probably has around 300,000 or more registered Republicans, our county convention is about that size, and only lasts the morning up to lunch.

Washington county is a small place, and the grassroots got people to turn out for a long Maine-style caucus process.
