Can’t carry his own state?? (Ron Paul) Big trouble! Reminds of Fat Albert Gore losing in his home state.

“He might be catching on!

HOORAY!!!!”

If my prayers are answered, he is. On the military, defense, immigration, etc., he is, indeed the man.

It seems some Duncan congrats are in order. Tanc and others could have done better if they'd only appeared to make a speech.

An interesting result though, given how constrained the vote was.

Paul could never carry Texas..... Even when he ran as a LP nominee for president. He’s localized to the CD he’s in and nothing more...... thank goodness.

I’m praying everyday. God can do miracles. Keep on asking Him! The more of us who do, the better!

No news here. The Texas GOP hates Ron Paul. That he got the votes he got is amazing to me. If the gals and guys at the top of the Texas GOP could have had their way, the name of Ron Paul would not even be spoken and all references to him scrubbed off their records.

Hey, Rep. Hunter! The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You! Congratulations, you deserved every vote you got, Sir! Now maybe the eyes of America will come into focus, too. :)
