Ron Paul gets 'smoked' in Nebraska - POLITICO.com

It looks like Ron Paul isn’t going to be officially nominated for the presidency in Tampa.

His backers failed to win a plurality of delegate slots at the Nebraska GOP convention Saturday, leaving the Texas congressman short of the support necessary to have his name placed into contention at the national convention.

According to national party rules, a candidate needs a plurality of the delegates in at least five states to have his name presented for the nomination – by falling short in Nebraska, the last state to hold its convention, Paul came up one state short.

From the Omaha World-Herald report:

In the end, the Paul revolution in Nebraska got smoked. Paul, a libertarian Texas congressman, won two of the state GOP’s 35 national convention delegates. Romney, the party’s presumptive presidential nominee, won the rest.

“We did it the Nebraska way. In Nebraska, we can have our disagreements but, at the end of the day, we work together,” said Mark Fahleson, state GOP chairman.

Paul’s loss in Nebraska means he will not be guaranteed a speaking role at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla.

It also means Gov. Dave Heineman does not have to worry about being embarrassed in Tampa.

Heineman was the first governor in the nation to endorse Romney. He spent considerable time mobilizing so-called establishment Republicans to back Romney.

“He was personally invested,” Fahleson said of the governor.

The run-up to Saturday’s event was fraught with tension as Republicans braced for a more concentrated version of the conflict and chaos that has marked other state convention confrontations between establishment forces and Paul supporters. Those fears turned out to be unfounded.

How concerned was the Romney camp about the Nebraska outcome? The World-Herald’s Robynn Tysver noted the presence of as many as five Romney staffers, including campaign counsel Ben Ginsberg, who was on the scene in Grand Island to keep an eye on things.

Most ron paul stans are weed heads anyway. They smoked their lifes away and forgot to support their candidate. Guess thats what happens when half your base has ADD and a drug addiction.

It still begs the question........what are your options now??

So what have you gained from what is left in the field?????

Did you gain less potential for war?? Did you gain an end to banker bailots?
Did you gain more of your freedoms back that have seemingly been lost??

I said this 8 months ago...... Exactly, what do you win if R. Paul doesn't get the nomination??

So he doesn't get the nomination (regardless of all the shady shiit that occurred), ok fine..... So what does the country gain or get for that....are we going to be better off???

And I made a thread about how he, but more so his son let down millions of supporters, and they basically at the end seemed to have folks. Nonetheless, you win a gold medal in what exactly with what's left in the field.....???

Wow...I forgot about Grand Dragon Paul

Ron Paul is a loser and so are his supporters.

 

[newworldafro]

Yet, nobody can reply what they won/or will win , with him not being nominated??

I'm trying to figure out now that your standing on the podium? What event did you win in??? What issues are going to be taken care of now???

Are you going to get those liberties back??
Are you going to NOT GO TO WAR WITH BROWN FOLKS?? again...
Are you going to find a way to stop the derivatives market from putting the economy into a cesspool??


:crickets:

Surprised by all this hate for Ron Paul. I'm guessing alot of you guys are probably the same idiots who thought Obama was the 2nd coming back in 2008 (and probably still do).
