How won't. In order to win a Presidential Election, one has to be a sllut to Wall St. and Corporations.

He'll get there because Romney won't get enough votes during the first round. In the second round, those who voted for Romney in the first round can vote for whomever they want. Many of those who were bound to vote for Romney in the first round are actually Ron Paul supporters.

Emily don't we first have to stop Romney from getting to 1144 before the convention? If I heard correctly the Texas Primary is open to everyone to vote in so that should help Paul a ton! but still got California to come and that's a lot of delegates.

How is Romney not going to get there? Is Paul suddenly going to win and take most if not all of the bound delegates from California? and others?

I know Texas is proportional so Paul should do well there. Seeing how that EVERYONE can vote and Paul does well with independents and democrats more so than Romney.

Yes, but the 38 hard delagates will go to Romney, after all he only got 73% of the vote.
And it's funny that Paulbots think the GOP is conspiring against them but when they get delagates unporportional to there dare of the vote it's cunning.

And 2/3 is not a sweep.

What type of % would you consider doing well?
