Wait. There were primaries tonight and Ron Paul is still campaigning?
The contests in all those states were non-binding beauty contests. The real delegates were chosen via caucus and/or convention. Ron Paul won those delegates.
And Ron Paul is in it through Tampa.
I think Romney counted his chickens before they hatched.

popular votes = beauty contest
back room delegate manipulation = honest assessment
Look I'd take paul over mittens in a heat beat but lets at least be honest that this delegate count looks *nothing* like what GOP members would vote for..

True ... but keep in mind it was setup this way to FAVOR the establishment and Romney from the get go. It's poetic that it is now being used against them.
