    Default AP finally admits its delegate projections are absolutely bogus

    Paul looks for delegates, respect in caucus states

    their ideas on what Ron would do with them, of course, are merely their ideas.

    Nobody gives a crap about a speech at the convention or the party platform. Both are widely ignored. I wish msm would stop pushing that meme.

    those are simply the AP ideas. The significance here is they have had to publicly admit that those delegate 'estimates' they use really don't reflect reality when it comes to Ron. They downplay it, of course, just as they say Nevada if not closed down would have given 'some' delegates to Ron. Nevada as a state would have VOTED for Ron at national convention if they hadn't turned off the lights and fled to keep from electing delegates.

    My thought is that at least through super Tuesday, the door isn't closed against Ron winning, because he has some states coming up that SHOULD go well for him if we get any kind of a break (which so far we have not had.) However, WERE he to lose, the role of 'inside the party opposition leader and holder of the GOP conscience' with sufficient power to shelter somewhat up and coming liberty candidates would be my favorite fall back. And yeah, speech and platform as acknowledgement of the significance of his role. But that would only be a fall back IF we lost, which obviously is not our goal.

    With the exception of Maine, the Texas congressman hasn't come close to winning the popular vote in any of the first nine states to vote.
    Iowa???? Seriosuly... 3% from being in first place.

    AP is trash.

    I agree, but their delegate projections are the real problem, people look at that nonsense and write Ron off when actually he is doing quite well on the delegate front.
