Sununu has been on the various networks now talking about the Ron Paul delegate situation and keeps using Iowa as an example. He said on MSNBC that Romney/Santorum got 70% of the vote while Ron Paul was only in single digits in Iowa, and on CNN said that Romney/Santorum got 2/3 or the total vote while Ron Paul did "significantly worse".

Is this worth getting my blood boiling over?

Ugh.

I have seen NOTHING in media about Ron filing with six states and them moving the goal posts. Even the 'positive' stories ignore that. Wonder why??????

MSNBC was still reporting he only had 4 states. I heard that Sununu comment as well. I just wish the Rachel or the person interviewing had called him out for such a blatant lie.

professional courtesy dictates that is the Dems allows the GOP to lie, the GOP allows the Dems to lie.

I honestly think that is it. BOTH parties have been trying to get these kinds of rules changes for a long time, I read somewhere. They dont want to underline that parties can do this and move the goal posts after all voting and delegate selection is done, and make people think parties don't reflect their vote. Though how Romney got all those states that went for someone else if it reflects their vote, I have no clue.

Solution? Get Sununu out of office. We have the money and the manpower to do it.

LOL, single digit votes? He had 21% of the popular vote compared to Romney's 24% IIRC, and that's only after all the suspicious vote-flipping shenanigans.

Definitely. Make the consequences personal for him.
