I am satisfied by the results today. It feels good to know I helped spread the word in NH...it was exhausting but awesome at the same time! The hard work and the lack of sleep have paid off.


PS: Ron Paul came in 2nd in Nashua which is the 2nd largest city in NH and right by Massachusetts. I am not surprised Mitt won there. A lot of their residents moved from Mass to the city.

Veterans and Active Duty Soldiers to March on White House in Support of Ron Paul :
Heh, from your link:

they will do an about face to turn their backs on the President, and render a hand salute to a folded American flag surrounded by family members of military personnel and veterans. They will hold the salute for as many seconds as troops have died under the Presidency of Barrack Obama.


They are going to hold a 20 minute salute? Fat chance, those will be same shakey arms.

Unfortunately it would have to be more than 20 minutes.

Good to see Ron Paul with another impressive showing. Of course the media ignored Ron Paul finishing 2nd despite Huntsman putting all his eggs in one basket, and Santorum/Perry performing horribly.

Also, I remember Gingrich back in the fall debates when he was trying to unite the gop with his talk of "disregard this arguring, the #1 priority is we make Obama a 1-Term president". So much for that. Now he's the grumpiest one in the bunch with an All-Negative campaign against the frontrunners.

I think your obvious 11:29pm edit, was a feeble attempt of deceit.

Correction...since 1976, when the current practice of having the Iowa caucus immediately followed by the New Hampshire primary started.

I didn't even realize that the NH primary was today. With these crop of GOP candidates, who cares? The results have no meaning either other than that Romney is heading a very bad group. Romney won, but he easily is the most undesirable presidential frontrunner in history.

Ron Paul speech in summation - Big plans to balance the budget and stop deficit spending(fully delineated elsewhere), end the fed, sound monetary policy, real government cuts, ending the illegal wars and bringing the troops home, return liberty to the American people and limit government to its constitutional role, end the war on drugs ... etc. ...


Willard Romney speech in summation - Obama sucks, America deserves better than Obama, hope, Obama messed everything up in the last three years, change, an unapologetic and more massive than it is now defense(neo-con professional progressive code word for more preemptive "intervention" and nation building), city on the hill, and oh yeah - people shouldn't be talking bad about me and hurting our chances to beat Obama who really sucks! ... etc. ...


That pretty much sums it up, don't you think?

I'm not understanding what you mean, but Yea, I was pretty close with Romney, Paul, Huntsman, and Perry. I should be a Pundit.
