hey, I know its not like he won the nomination, but it makes me pretty damn happy.
2nd place in Nevada, won 4 delegates. Go Ron Paul! http://news.yahoo.com/election/2008/...sy99snwcF?d=ST

I know Romney dominated the numbers there with his 1st place finish, but still, some months ago, Ron Paul was polling at 1-2%, now he got some delegates. Yay!

Who is this Ron Paul you speak of? I have been watching the news and I don't see him much, is he any good?

Is he good looking? Does he want to bring us "change"? I mean we really need a good looking President and one who will bring us "Change".

If you go look at the delegate numbers on politico.com, it still says he's got 0. Is it winner takes all, or what? It's on the front page of politico.com.

Change? You must be speaking of Obama who speaks of change constantly, but somehow never tells you what change and how he plans on doing it. One important note. In 1992, Ross Perot actually led in the Presidential polls with 39% (31% Bush, 25% Clinton)before leaving the race....

South Carolina:
McCain 132,757 (33%)
Huckabee 118,287 (30%)
Thompson 63,392 (16%)
Romney 60,590 (15%)
Paul 14,855 (4%)
Giuliani 8,263 (2%)
Hunter 8,263 (0%)

Nevada: (only Paul and Romney campaigned in Nevada for some reason?)
Romney (51%)
Paul (14%)
McCain (13%)
Huckabee (8%)
Thompson (8%)
Giuliani (4%)
Hunter (2%)

Below the delegate totals on Politico.com, it states that delegate totals include "Wyoming, New Hampshire, S. Carolina, and Michigan", Nevada has not yet been applied.
FYI, it takes 1,191 delegates to win the Rep. nimination.
