FRAUD!!!!!!
We vote, they make up a count. WAKE UP!
The first step is to admit there is a problem. I don't know that they take (took) it seriously. Even on the "live chat" with Doug Wead and Jack Hunter last night, a question was posed about the rallies, and Doug seemed totally unwilling to acknowledge that the rallies were a waste of time and resources. How many times does it take before we learn a lesson? Georgia voted Newt for no other reason than he was from there. The homecrowd always picks one of their own. For him to be doing this badly in Texas screams alarm bells.
If we fail to elect Ron, when this campaign is studied in history I fear one of the reasons why will be because the campaign was too hard headed to face reality and change tactics.
From the information I heard about the IL rally yesterday or the day before (I can't recall), he essentially gave the standard stump speech that he has been giving all along. So I think you are right that they are failing to change tactics. I have been doing a good bit of research on House and Senate races, and have found that there are libertarian Republican candidates out there that are giving a far better presentation of the message than the campaign is. They are able to connect the message to the concerns of the average voter and they are doing it very well (GA Avenger might be able to back me up on this). I'm not sure if it is a stubbornness or just a lack of ability, but Paul just doesn't seem to be able to do that in his speeches. He is real good at firing up the base, but preaching to the choir does not win elections.
Totally agree with you, with virtually zero caucus's left on the schedule, Ron needs to back a few States that award their delegates proportionally after 1 April, and Campaign in that State day after day after day.
The private jet in to a State for one or two rallies and leave not to return has failed. Not to be willing to change tactics now with over half the primary season over, is not just being hard headed, but also not in touch with reality.
Pick just a couple of States for next month and Campaign like you truly want to win them.
"You can prevent crimes by becoming a Police State. So if you advocate the Police State............the crime then will be against the American People and against Our Freedoms. And we will throw out so much of what Our Revolution was fought for." - Ron Paul, Nov. 22, 2011
You like Ben Swann? Let Raycom Media know!
Why is anyone looking for good poll numbers? Everyone pretty much now believes Ron Paul can't win- since he hasn't won a State yet. The numbers were bound to go down from that.....
So we need to wish for a brokered convention and get delegates in under stealth. No other way to go about it folks. Become a delegate for a candidate that is expected to win in your state.
