Yes. It is all about brainwashing the sheeple with lies to have them think he doesn't control as many states as he actually does.
I sure hope you aren't referring to ME as a "sheeple". I am a die hard Ron Paul supporter, but there has been so much conflicting information regarding what states Paul supporters have control over, I was asking for some clarification of your comments. Sheesh!

It's a dumb article that makes no points whatsoever. For example it states the "4 reasons" (counting down) Paul could still get the nomination as:
4) Lots of regular "little people", like me, want Ron Paul to be the 2012 GOP presidential candidate. What? And what exactly were the folks who voted for Romney & the other GOP candidates? Were they not "regular people" too? Even taking into account the fact that Paul won 5 states the fact is, 5 states is a MINORITY. What about the MAJORITY? How do you think all those folks who voted for Romney are going to take it if their majority votes are suddenly discounted and instead Paul is selected as the nominee? You think they will just stand by and then suddenly jump on the RP bandwagon when THEIR choice is "dismissed"? Why should YOUR minority be more important than Romney's majority? Who died and made you folks king?
3) Ron Paul is the David to Romney's Goliath Machine but the spirit, character and faith of we "little people" count more in America than just money. Again, what about all the OTHER "little people" who voted for Romney. You folks seem to think that YOUR votes are somehow more important. For folks who claim to preach about the Constitution, you seem more like Monarchists to me.
2) Ron Paul wants to serve his country, and has served in the military, and would end the wars. Ron Paul's supporters and Americans want someone they can trust and believe in. OK? So? How does any of that change the fact that Romney won more of the primaries and got more of the deligate? Again you folks seem to think that YOUR votes are somehow more important that those of all the other people.
1) Mitt Romney is much less qualified to be president than Ron Paul, who understands the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Even assuming that's true - so what? The President isn't chosen based on qualifications - he's based on who is the "people's choice" to lead them
So how do ANY of those "reasons" change ANYTHING? How does any of that make it likely that Paul will be the nominee?
I understand with your frustration and anger with the GOP "muscling you out" and think that anger is legit but that doesn't mean that Paul is any more likely to get the nomination (even if you weren't "muscled out"). It's over.

No, it isn't over. Our votes count too. Don't discount us yet. Right now, Ron Paul has earned the right to speak at the convention, let's see what happens. If enough people become aware of the games that are being played during this election, along with the corruption of both sides, perhaps this can be the beginning of some positive changes.
Does the RNC have an ounce of credibility left? It can't even figure out which fraudulent method it wants to use to screw all the candidates other than Romney out of their delegates. It is getting more and more embarrassing to be associated with the Republican Party. As Ben Swann says, "why have rules if you don't follow them"? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT2F3aT2xLU
RON Paul is a nice man- He is aging and better hurry up...it would be nice for this calm and honest guy with a simple approach - who would gently put the house in order without bringing any trauma to the American family. I have heard him speak on a few occasions. He is not extreme and is a moderate centralist who is not afraid to call a criminal a crook...but in a nice way of course...I did not know he was still in the race...Tell him to continue and the others will fade away...He is like the proverbial turtle who wins the race- God speed old man.

I think you took something personal that was intended so. Maybe take the chip off. That comment doesn't seemed aimed at you to me.

It isn't over til it's over. Unfortunately, Romney and camp have shown no integrity and have stolen what they shouldn't have. The list of "crimes" is long. As to majority of delegates that is a separate issue. However, you slice it. Romney has no integrity, neither does many of the GOP.
