The Oligarch is fearful of a Ron Paul victory.  They have always been corrupt because living at the expense of others has always been immoral; an easy way of making a living without working to produce something.


I have been reading a history of the English colonies in America. It has always been a struggle between the power of the Oligarch verses the liberty of the people. You could see power change from time to time during this 200 year period. A powerful oligarch always led to more plunder and more wealth in their pockets. Liberty always led to a better and more prosperous life for the people.
The sole purpose of government is to protect your liberty. The Constitution is not to restrict the people, but to restrict government.  Ron Paul

The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first. - Thomas Jefferson

can a city or county or district make their own rules and change dates anytime they want?
I don't think the numbers will change.
those delegates are gonna vote for who they please so election results up there are meaningless.

You mean like he did Santorum in Iowa? Perhaps, the Romney boy needed a victory, if so I hope the truth is known.
You will not make peace with the Bluecoats, you are free to go.

There's a goodly bunch of concern in Maine, that college students from out of state and young people coming across the border from Canada registering to vote, under Maines rather loose election laws, and throwing the vote totals out of whack. They think as many as 200 votes in just the caucus yesterday.
In the 1920's "sheeple" was a term coined by the National Socialist Party in Germany to describe people that would not vote for Hitler. In the 1930's they held Hitler as the only one that would bring pride back to Germany and bring the budget and economy back.....

Don't know why Maine even bothers.  Their Caucus is non-binding any way.  The Delegates are free to vote as they see fit anyway.

Iowa, Minn, Colo, Maine, Wash, Idaho, N D, Wyo, Vir Islands, Mo, Neb, and Montana, all have a Non-binding Caucus.  I ignore them, they don't mean anything anyway.  It's the winner take all, and the proportional states that are important to listen to.  Because that is the way their delegates are required to vote.   
Where is old Joe when we really need him?  Alaska Independence    Calling Illegal Immigrants "Undocumented Aliens" is like calling Drug Dealers "Unlicensed Pharmacists"
What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

Only 5500 people turned out. So if you're trying to spin it, yeh 200 votes seems close, but not in such a small sample. 200 votes out of 50000, now that would be close.
Not sure which is more puzzling, the low turn out in Maine, or the conspiracy theory's being bantered about by Paul supporters on the internet....




I don't see anyone here trying to spin anything. I did see where the Justice department found no evidence of illegal voting.That didn't come from a Paul supporting website.....It came from Huff Post.They hate paul. Almost as bad as neo-cons ;)
