Conn-Del-NY-Penn-RI Primaries today

[lukep]

Connetticutt, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New York and Rhode Island are all having their primaries right now, and we'll see results for those beauty contests after 9PM EST.

Although Paul has had huge crowds in a few of those states this week (4,300 turnout in freezing, drenching rain yesterday in Pittsburg) they are all typically Democrat strongholds... So overall interest would be expected to be low in all tonight.

In fact, ever since the MSM's speech has shifted to say that "Romney has the nomination in the bag" there has been a lot less interest by his voters to turn up... And we could actually ONLY be seeing Paul voters at the polls today. (Let's hope.)

One race in particular to keep your eye on: Delaware: http://www.cnn.com/election/2012/primaries/state/DE

Gingrich is deeeeeeeeep in debt now, estimates around $7 Million. It's getting pretty obvious that he's been held in the race artificially in order to keep this from being a 2-man race between Flippy and Paul... But his debt is becoming pretty extreme, so he's hinted to the press now that he'll drop out if he fails to win Delaware.

First Read - Gingrich hints he may drop from race this week

Assuming he can't win that mall-sized state, (oh the comedy) we should finally expect salamander to drop out this week... Making it impossible for the media to talk about anyone else but Paul running against Romney.

Oh boy is this NY GOP official in it deep:

Anyone notice what he says in the middle of that clip? That's sooooooooo illegal.

These primaries are so far apart I was only able to vote in three of them. They need to hold primaries on different days for each state so that I don't have to rush from one state to the next like this.

Your right! I could have gone down to Home Depot and hired some of the illegal aliens hanging in the parking lot to go and vote for me. Would have been cheaper than the gasoline I had to buy.

Maybe I can do that come November - except I think the Democrats have all 11 Million of them them reserved for that Tuesday.

Get one like this, then your girl can use it too:

Whelp, looks like Romney took Delaware with ease... @ 91% now Gingrich only has half the votes that Romney does. (But still in 2nd.)

So hopefully we hear something from the Doughboy's campaign tonight about him throwing in the towel... Ironic that this is good news but it is indeed.

Looks like Romney won all 5 states, Paul coming in 2nd on 4 out of 5.

CNN seems to have forgotten who's running tonight though:

I'm sure you already saw this but it's pretty ridiculous

Yep, here's Maddow saying the same thing:

Love that it's getting press... Too bad we won't hear much about all of the fraud going on tonight... Of course Swann might digg something up, who knows.

I'm finding it troubling coming up with the right words to describe my anger in what should be done to these fucking criminals that have high jacked the government. The whole republican primary is a fucking joke and a fucking fraud.

Well if you'd answer the PM I sent you perhaps I would have a way for you to constructively channel that anger, bro!

NEWT'S OUT!

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzRNh2dcE4M]Newt Gingrich To Drop Out Next Tuesday - YouTube[/ame]

As of Tuesday he'll be officially out of the running, but we don't know if it's another suspension yet or a full drop-out. Sadly, it seems he has already said he'd throw his support to ObRomney.

Now, remember how I said in the OP that the press would not be able to keep from talking about Paul now that he's the only contestant?

Damn, I really underestimate them. Check out the film @ 1:29. They say "He was the last" competitor to Romney!

I'd sooooooo grudgefuck that evil bitch...

Anyway, that's how they're going to play it. The chart above and this show that they're going for broke, totally and completely acting from here on out like the Campaign really is over now.

Of course they still have to hold the Primaries in the rest of the states to elect the local folks, we can now expect them to stop covering the campaign trail of BOTH Paul and Romney... Excepting when it's talk about Romney v/s Obama, of course.

I'll be curious to see how they ignore RP with a brokered convention though. With him just winning Iowa and Minnesota it looks like he will reach the plurality needed to force a brokered convention. Since we're just now finding out that he won Iowa and Minnesota, who knows what he'll pull off in the next few months.

This shit is so confusing though, so maybe I'm wrong. I know RP will not be allowed to win, but I want to see him drag the republican platform closer to his positions.

He just suspended it. All of his delegates will be going to Romney (and I'll bet you see Romney covering Newt's debt). Game over.

Whadda you guys think about the possibility that the Media can overstep this coverup, forcing the people to wake up?

(i.e.The MSM caught in such a huge lie favoring mittens that even mittens voters think "wtf is wrong with the press?")

I know that would take a particularly rare set of circumstances to get to that point, but today makes it clear that the MSM is happy to play their part in such a scenario.

I think this happened months ago. People are waking up, it's just a slow process, but that's why RP crowds are multiplying.

The results of Iowa and Minnesota are just like the Trayvon Martin thing. The media can lie all they want because they are not held responsible, and technically the news channels are entertainment, not news.

Are you not entertained?

Are you not entertained?

I am not. Not at all.

I am pissed. They will pay.

It will catch them eventually, assuming a SOPA-esque bill doesn't kill the interwebs, particularly social media. People are moving away from MSM in droves. Plenty of us already see them as another National Enquire, and that number is growing because they've grown too arrogant and there is too much opportunity for them to get caught.
