"Just yesterday there was a thread here on FR worried that Fred would lose Florida because he’s last on the primary ballot."

It does seem silly, but placement of a candidate on the ballot is an issue that has been explored, and due to the IQ of yer average voter, or maybe even their indecision for whom to vote, it can matter in many cases where a candidate's name is placed on the ballot.

She got one dopey death threat

How many death threats would your family accept before deciding they weren't dopey?

Your posts are exactly why folks refer to FR as lunatic fringe, troll.

I got a threat from you asking for my number so you could harass me.

I condemned the death threat but it was an out of state call and I doubt it was real.

I agree. This woman deserves the harassment. If you get a vote tally at the end of counting all the ballots and you see that one candidate who has spent a lot of money in the state on advertising gets zero votes, you are willfully negligent and acting irresponsibly by not checking the vote totals. It’s not like the tally said Mark Klein or Neil Fendig had zero votes. Ron Paul signs were everywhere here and his ads were on TV and radio all the time.

“Your posts are exactly why folks refer to FR as lunatic fringe, troll.”

Troll: To deliberately post false or controversial messages to gain attention for the sake of attention, usually from people who genuinely want to help. The act of posting false messages is called trolling.

It’s the namecalling and infighting, typified by your posts, which gives FR a bad rep.

Not only do you refer to death threats as dopey, you are now whining that I threatened you. You really are a piece of work, little troll. Crawl back under your gnarled little tree. You are boring me. Yawn.

How would Council on Fredian Relations or Campaign Fredian Reform fans have reacted on FR if they had incorrectly reported 0 votes for him? I'm just sayin'....

No whine there.

Like I said, infantile namecalling is what gives FR a bad rep.

A troll is a user of a newsgroup, forum or message board that posts messages with the intent of inciting an argument or flame-war.

Isn’t that what you’re doing by your namecalling?

Anyone that continues to support Paul, with the mountain of information that has been exposed about him and the stuff he spews when he opens his mouth, is not rational and should not be taken seriously.

Check out the last debate where he made this wild assertion about the other folks' stance and then,when corrected,says he didn't actually hear what they said.

If you actually give a darn about the facts or the truth,you are the one who should check out the last debate. It seems that so many are so eager to ridicule and denigrate Ron Paul they don't even hear what he says,or even what the question Brit posed was.

If you listen, Bret Hume subtly changed the question given to the others and then used his own (Humes) deception for a "gotcha" moment. I lost much respect for Brit with that little machination.

For any one interested,Bret's question to Paul was "What if this happens again?" Paul was attempting to answer that question and said that he would be less likely to jump into something with Iran than the other debaters. (I believe,the answer before the slight change in the question was given by Huckabee and ended with Iran should be warned if it happened again that they (Iran) should be prepared to see the "Gates of Hell".)

Thompson said something to the effect that they (Iranians) should be prepared to meet the virgins.

Granted they all said the commander made the right decision to withhold fire but the question to Paul was not whether or not the commander made the right decision,the question to him and I repeat was "What if this happens again?" No wonder he appeared confused.

If you listen,you will hear and if you are fair,you cannot deny that some chicanery was involved in that exchange. When they panned the faces of the other candidates and showed their smug,arrogant and condescending smirks I came much closer to deciding Ron Paul was the candidate I would support. I think something he is saying must be scary to the persons who seem quite determined to preselect our choices for President of the United States of America.

Well, even that would have made more sense! Fred always polled at about 1% in NH. Paul was always at about 7% or so.

Guess you missed many calls came from other states. Those idiots could not have voted for Paul for these measly 31 votes.

Not only that, the next day the Pantagon said that the warning didn’t come from the Iranian ships - it came from the ‘Philippino Monkey,’ some mysterious nutjob with a shortwave who has harassed Gulf shipping for years.
