32,963 voted in 2012.
44,000 voted in 2008.
Hopefully, those voters moved to Texas and found work.
Pretty pathetic that only 32K bothered to vote.
I just saw an article in the MSM about how in a head to head, Romney probably won’t beat Obama.
Now that they have him installed, they know that Obama can beat him. Every four years the republican electorate falls for this - putting in the candidate the elite RINOs anoint, because “a real conservative can’t possibly win” - and then watching in confusion while these inadequates can’t seem to beat the most flawed Dems.
Ford Ran as RINO Loss
Reagan Ran as Strong Conservative Landslide
Reagan Ran as Strong Conservative Landslide
Bush Sr Ran as Conservative Win
Bush Sr Ran as RINO (raised taxes) Loss
Dole Ran as RINO Loss
Bush Jr Ran as Conservative Bare Win
Bush Jr Ran as Conservative Win
McCain Ran as RINO Loss
It’s just so clear. Now they are saddling us with another milquetoast, spit em out RINO. I remember Crist. I remember what he did. Crist’s people are running Mitt’s campaign, by the way. Not at all sure I can even vote for him.
I found this at Wikipedia (there are no working links in the chart). "Projected delegate" numbers are from various media networks.

in 2012 he received 6163 votes less than he received in 2008. His popularity seems to have waned in Nevada. McCain came in third in 2008 and got the nomination anyways btw so this victory is pretty meaningless although Fox news and Mitt Romney would like to have us all believe otherwise. Go Newt!
Thanks for the post and like we all knew, Mitt was going to hit the 50% mark one way or the other.
I remember reading somewhere that when the USSR rolled into conquered countries with their tanks, the first group killed was local prominent communists. I didn't use to understand that, but I think I'm starting to get it.
If we are forced into CWII or RWII, IMO the ones we should fear most and never trust are our own self appointed “elite”.
I hate to use the word “elite” for these corrupt, dishonest sell outs because most of the people I know are better than they are in every category that matters except for money and power. Of course, they think that's all that matters.
