I don't really buy that there is some huge conspiracy theory, but I will say that every little thing done to marginalize him does add up. The simple exclusion of the splash screens on the news showing vote tallies, not mentioning him as a front runner when he gets more votes than other candidates. If you dont think all of those little things add up then you arent being honest with yourself. Take that all away and he might still not win the whole thing but it certainly makes an impact, therefore making it even easier to marginalize and mock those that support him...sorry but it gets really old really quickly.
The bolded part hasn't happened, he hasn't won anything so how the hell can he be a front runner getting more votes than the other candidates??
194 votes. That's all there was between 1st and 2nd place in Maine... just 194 more votes and the day would've been ours. And if Romney had won the day fair and square, no doubt we would've given him is due, brushed ourselves off and moved on to the next state in line to caucus. But he didn't. And the reason that he didn't is because the GOP Establishment played dirty tricks against Dr. Paul in order to keep him from winning their non-binding straw poll vote. Sure the dirty tricks worked in the short term - but guess what GOP, just as with all the other caucus states, it will once again be Dr. Paul who ends up with the most delegates won. So while you may have won this and a few other straw poll battles, make no mistake about it, you're going to lose the delegate war.
What dirty tricks did they play. The vote in Paul's WORST COUNTY in the state in 08 was cancelled due to weather, and that county had a total of 133 votes in the state. Turnout was basically the same statewide, so Paul is suddenly going to win 200% of the vote in a county he won 7% last time??
And to be clear in your factual world, dozens of Universities, a dozen polling companies, countless media organizations, and both the Democratic and Republican parties are in a big conspiracy to suppress Ron Paul by manipulating the polls, exit polls, and entrance polls.
Also, in your factual world, Ron Paul is correct when he claims that Washington County always has large turnouts and that is where he did his best in 2008 -- despite the fact the county had less than 140 voters with only 8 voting for him in 2008 in that county?!?!?!
Your factual world is convenient to your political ideology.

You are committing thought crimes. Do not think...just parrot for Ron Paul...
Ron Paul said Washington County always has large turn outs...133 is a large turnout...
Ron Paul said that this was his best county in 2008....8 votes for Ron Paul is an impressive showing...
war is peace
freedom is slavery
ignorance is strength

There is a difference between being a front runner and the winner...there can be multiple front runners and only one winner...thats how.
