Go Michelle!
Concur. BTW, she's nothing but a far right loon, none who calls himself a conservative wants the kind of Governmet intervention (religion, morals, etc) this woman stands for.

And no moderate or liberal is gonna vote her even with a gun pointing to their heads.

Don't want to make unfounded accusations but it was kinda weird.
Oh oh! Do you think FOX got to the counters?

Well no one else will come out and say it but we all know it is TRUE. Ron Paul is a FRONT-RUNNER

ROFL!!!!

No Way!
If FOX counted they would have just switched Romneys and Pauls Votes!

CNN Breakdown

4,823 Bachmann
4,671 Ron Paul
2,293 Pawlenty
1.657 Santorum
1,456 Cain
718 Perry
567 Romney
385 Gingrich
69 Huntsman
35 McCotter
162 Scattered

Total Votes 16,892

If you count all the votes posted including the scattered I come up with the number 16,836 which still leaves 56 unaccounted for.

It doesn't matter. As your link points out, the Republican establishment is never going to let him win..

Paul isn't stupid (I don't think), he should know the fix is in. He might as well end this charade now. Either that, or run as an independent..where liberals like me, who are intrigued by some of his positions, would have an opportunity to possibly vote for him..

Narrow margin of victory there for Bachmann. I just hope it's not a sign of the future. Ron needs to win this!

Oh. O.K. Well if you ad the 162 to Ron Paul's numbers he would have won. If you add in 56 more he would have won more strongly. Hmm. Who ever heard of "scattered" anyway?

I second that....as she clearly won that debate and came across as the most likeable human being....admittedly against a weak field. Pawlenty was obnoxious and it was good to see her kick his butt.

If you want to vote for Paul and you want him as your
next President, register yourself as a Republican and
vote in the Presidential primary in your state.
I did it for Paul last election.

Just expect a lot of phone/mail solicitations from the Republican Party &
invitations via post card from Palin pushing Alaska as
a tourist stop
