Former Ron Paul staffer breaks down the delegate race.

Don't summarily dismiss this, this guy brings up a lot of intriguing points.

Like I said, things are far more interesting if you're paying attention.
Did Ron Paul Win Iowa, Nevada, Minnesota, Colorado and Missouri?

I posted about this earlier but I don't think anyone watched the vid.
People are showing up to the caucus' to vote and then going home thinking that whoever stays and become the delegate will go for the candidate that the caucus agreed upon.
The paul people are becoming delegates and then ignoring the results. They don't care who won, they're going Ron Paul. This is why he's focusing on caucus states... he can hijack them.

Versus being hijacked by corporate billions?

So perverting democracy is only okay when your guy does it. Got it 
I've never seen an election that has been more of a joke than this primary.

"This is what democracy looks like!"
"This is what democracy looks like!"
We didn't start the fire  Don't blame us. We are fighting against the most corrupt systems in the world but Camelot Outposters think they are cool joining the corrupt elitist crowd in the attack against Dr. Ron Paul.

Some people are sad that Goldman Sachs and other Federal Reserve cronies can't buy the election without resistance.
Boohoo biznatches!

No, I just hold everyone to the same standard.
Ron Paul supporters think the ends justifies the means, but only for them and theirs. I'm just as much against citizens united as I am Ron Paul's deceptive tactics. He still probably won't win though so it's nbd really. He just wants a speech for him or rand at the convention.
Oh and btw I registered as a repub just to vote for him in the FL primary.

I don't think we can call RP deceptive. He has been voting and speaking the same way for 30 years.

That is where your reasoning is flawed. Him and the campaign aren't trying to deceive anyone. Quite contrary, they have been openly talking about this to empower people to fight monied interests. While you think you are standing on principle (which I can appreciate), you are simply in error of assessing what is going on.
Otherwise I agree about the Citizen's United outcome, that was a disaster. Our system is raped by monied interests. It is sad that it is so difficult to get people to work together to stop it and change the system.

If Ron Paul could win the nomination via shenanigans orchestrated by his campaign, it would be beyond pointless.
It would cause a massive rift in the party and the Libertarian types would be cast out looking like the bad guys.
Obama would win the general election by 25 points or more.
