That’s funny. Now, for a dose of reality.

In 2008, Mike Huckabee didn’t have any money or the vaunted ‘organization’ that all the Mitt Perry supporters are always telling tales about. Yet, he won Iowa.

In 2008, John McCain ran his campaign out of money and was ‘finished’ according to every pundit. He barely had two dimes to rub together, yet he won New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Florida.

Mitt Romney, on the other hand, had all the money in the world and threw it at every one of those primaries. He had the best ‘organization’. His disciples here at FR were telling us exactly the same thing you are now for months. They were wrong and so are you.

So, the next time you want to peddle conventional ‘wisdom’ as fact, please do us the courtesy of learning your recent history first. Kthxbye.

Thanks for the history lesson and the wake up call for the ignoramuses, you are absolutely correct.
