Be prepared to get wildly different opinions on this question.

He has 22 with the possibility of picking up over a couple hundred unbound delegates.

It is a process and we won't really know until later and would be ill advised to talk about what we do know.

We don't know yet, NOBODY knows EXACTLY how much each of the candidate will get at the RNC in August, the newspeople are just as clueless as most of the laypersons about the process, they're just making made-up "projections"

Simply put, here's how it works - when voting is done in a state, some people in each precinct in that state stay after the voting to become delegates, a lot of these people tend to be Paul-supporters who understand the process, most others don't, they go to district delegates, if there are enough Paul-supporters there then push Paul-supporters to the state delegates & then it all goes to RNC
There are some "bound" delegates that are allocated according to the popular-vote while there are some "unbound" delegates that are free to vote for switchever candidate they like irrespective of the popular-vote, the numbers of bound & unbound delegates differ in each state, some states are completely unbound & there are further complications like the bound ones can push to unbind, etc etc
We expect that most of the delegates going into RNC will be Paul-supporters, some of them may actually be "bound" to vote for Romney, Gingrich or Santorum, in that case they may've to vote for them in the first round of voting, 1144 delegates are needed out of the total 2286 for any candidate to win BUT if no one gets that many in the first round then many states allow unbinding the bound delegates, then they may vote whoever they want & that's where we hope to make it big
Further, there are now talks that those Paul-supporters who are standing as Romney-delegates, Santorum-delegates, etc may vote directly for Paul, in the first round itself but that remains to be seen

In short, it's a long process, from precincts to districts to states to RNC & all of it takes a while to complete but final answers will ONLY be found out at RNC in August

Our point is that we're flooding the process with dedicated Paul-delegates & that maximizes our standing so I'd urge you to become a delegate if your state is still to come, becoming a delegate doesn't take a lot, all you need is a little dedication to support Paul & go through the process in your state, just get your friends &/or family with you to become delegates so you've each other to lean on, google ronpauldelegates for more info or you may contact the campaign :)

Im glad you took the time to make that important distinction. That it is not a guarantee but a possi.....

wait, the person you quoted said it was a possibility... they completely understood that....

so you just engaged in "yelling" for no particular reason other than to make an ass of yourself.
