Anyone surprised at the number of votes Ron Paul got? |
|
almost 16% in a race that's over for all practical purposes. Here's hoping for a Republican-Nader Barr/Paul libertarian ticket.

5. Paul running would hurt Obama more than Mccain |
|
He's very staunchly anti war, moreso than Obama, that is appealling to many liberals.

16. Liberals can vote blindly, but not that blindly. |
|
McCain will suffer losses to any Looneytarian candidate much more than any Democrat.

9. Did they tally the absentee ballots? |
|
I noticed Huckabee got quite a few votes too.
Perhaps these were ballots cast a while back.

11. No, I'm not surprised. |
|
There were Ron Paul signs everywhere. There were more Ron Paul signs in PA, than Hillary or Obama signs.
