Didn't you get the memo, the candidate that is running in fourth and occasionally third and has not won a state yet, is going to win anyway, all you have to do is wish upon a star and it will happen.

Didn't you get the memo? Your big government candidate is a disaster when it comes to foreign and domestic policy. Unless of course you believe in occupation of sovereign nations , never ending wars and are in the 1 percent. Then everything is peachy.
Time for you to wake up Dorothy you aren't in Kansas anymore.

The calculations are close, that Romney, the admitted Progressive, will not get the 1144 needed at the convention.

The 2nd vote will have the majority of those, that care and get involved, representing the people and not the Establishment rigged crap.

The anti-Progressive's, are trying like hell, to not let Romney get the 1144 needed.

Ok, listen.

I'm a big Ron Paul fan. I would love nothing more than if this were true.

However, I will do the same to this video and link as I would to any other video and link proclaiming numbers for anyone else:

1) It's a blogspot blog. Seriously? No, not sufficient.

2) It says right on there, on the blogspot blog, that it's all a guess.

3) Who are they? They haven't even been blogging for a year.

4) It is pointless at this time to guess, to announce as fact, to state anything about the delegate counts because we have:

a) more states to get through
b) more fraud for the GOP to pull

All we can do as Ron Paul supporters is continue our fight to get him to win. While it's good to hear and see positive, what with the media and people like slackjaw who apparently enjoys Ron Paul so much he can't help but pipe in with some negative every time someone posts something, we cannot become complacent.

Will he win?

Who knows.

Will Romney win?

Who knows.

Will Santorum win?

Who knows.

Just keep working at it, make phone calls, connect with your friends and family, make sure they know WHAT to do, that "liking" something on Facebook doesn't get Ron Paul the votes nor the delegates, that they actually have to get up OFF of the couch and do something.

It's fine to be excited but we have to stick to facts. Unfortunately, this statement that he has a certain number of delegates, nor the statement that it's "conservative" is not fact at this time. Just keep working.

How very dishonest of you.

Let's not use Wikipedia, (what a joke), as our "proof". LOL! God, Wikipedia! LOL!

Let's go to the ACTUAL SITE OF THE TENNIS CENTER!

The Los Angeles Tennis Center - Home Of Bruin Tennis - UCLA Athletics - UCLA Official Athletic Site

Let's see here, what DOES it say?!

Quote:
The LATC features eight lighted, hard-surface courts, a 5,800-permanent seat grandstand around the three main courts and a two-level clubhouse.
Wow, that seems to go hand in hand with what you said!

BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!

Quote:
At full capacity, the LATC can accommodate 10,000 spectators.
The emphasis was all mine.

Put that in your magical negative pipe and smoke it!

Hah dumbass, you big "discovery" has the same info has the wiki source you dismissed. Ron Paul was speaking at the main grandstand which surrounds three courts and has a capacity of 5,800. There are viewing areas at seven more tennis courts in the facility that bring the number up to 10k, which of course would be irrelevant if someone isn't speaking at them especially since the grandstand he was at wasn't even full.

Here from wiki which you moan about then quote the same stuff:
The main grandstand surrounds three courts, and has a capacity of 5,800 spectators. There are eight lighted, hard-surface courts at the center, which can hold 10,000 spectators.

You guys are incredible, can somehow stuff 7,800 fans into a facility that holds 5,800, and have it clearly in the video as not even being full.
