GOP meetings don’t count. If you want to win elections you need to win ELECTIONS, votes of the people, not some “end-of-meeting preference” real votes of normal non-connected people. The best he’s done in that was 38% and that was his first time out since then he’s been in the mid 20s on a good vote.

If he could win the nomination he’d actually have delegates by now. Super Tuesday has passed and he’s got nothing. It’ll take a lot more than just talking to turn Keyes into a real candidate with a real chance of winning the nomination, it would take a miracle that would include half a dozen key deaths. His campaign, again, like so many times before, is a complete non-starter. He can’t win, he can’t anything, he’s never even gotten remotely close, and he never will. Keyes supporters need to accept reality, he’s a smart guy who will never win election to any office ever under any circumstances. Maybe that’s a bad statement about America but that’s the reality we live in.

Keyes’ prior vote tallies were without benefit of the persuasive powers of you and millions who may feel as strongly about the USA and liberty as you and I. Can you probably persuade one person a day between now and the convention about which candidate best represents you? And who is that candidate? For me, it’s Keyes, and I’m willing to discuss with as many potential voters as I can about what’s at stake and what’s so refreshing about Keyes.

Do you remember the Bible story about the public “vote” on which prisoner — Barabbas and Jesus were the only “candidates” I recall — to release? Barabbas got the most votes that day. Does that track record mean you’d stick with Barabbas or someone just like him in your own future votes? Not me!
