Fred Thompson has now pulled out of the campaign.

I just got a call on my cell phone from an 866 number. I answered. No one there. Called it back…automated recording, “You’ve reached the Ron Paul Campaign…yada yada” After holding for a minute, a young lady said hello, and I said that they just called my phone. She said, “Oh, uh, yeah, we were calling about Ron Paul.” I asked how she got my cell #, and she didn’t know. I asked her to remove my #, which she did, and then I asked her who she was going to vote for. I was ready for her quick and witty retort about the Ron Paul Revolution, but she actually said “I don’t know.” !!! Wow. I chuckled a bit, and encouraged her to read about Mitt Romney and vote for him. She said “ok”. Interesting. Thought you’d get a kick out of that one c-dog.

I’d bet all my gold coin Mitt Romney wins Utah County!!

Dustin,

You’re probably right. I’d hang onto those coins though — they might come in handy if he wins elsewhere, too.

Hey whaddyaknow? That really did feel good. I tried it out this morning. Even though everybody knows that my vote for Ron Paul was really just a vote for . . . Ron Paul! :]

I bet it felt good for you both to simultaneously give McCain a boost too.

…assuming he’s ahead in your state…

ouch… james got ROCKED. yeah I voted during lunch…
With a single bubble I could feel myself helping to strip down the corrupt government and help bring up one of the best candidates since our founding fathers. Plus I got a cool “I Voted” sticker

rocked? hardly… Anyway, Your logic is why I voted for Romney. Plus, if you strategize with regards to everything else in life, why on earth not with your vote?

You’re right that did feel good! I Just got back from the polls, ca. 7pm

I just hope in the future they’ll amened the Constitution to implement a much more fair electoral method, such as “range voting,” or at least “approval voting.”

These methods tend to perform far better statistically, than the skewed, favoritistic, unpredictable quasi-runoff system we have now. Plus, candidates wouldn’t need to bother “adjusting their message” to fit the state they were campaigning in that week.

I remember you writing about dialectics; I have a question, could a runoff voting system be considered a dialectic?

Did everyone have a super Tuesday?

I was leaning to Ron Paul for a short time, but then I also did some studying and pondering and my vote went to Romney. Some may say flip-flopper, but I do believe in repentance.

John: Seriously, I have no gold coins. Instead I try to follow the prophet and have adequate food storage - which will be of the most value if the economy collapses. No one is going to trade their water and toilet paper for gold in such a situation.

To flip-flop is to go from A to B, then back to A. I would say Romney has “flipped” on a couple things, which I’m okay with. Haven’t we all changed our feelings on certain things as we’ve become more enlightened on the subject? It means he has a brain! He is evolving and refining himself. (I’m ready for your witty and lengthy retort on this one Connor.)

I guess you could say it is “likely” but really who knows. Who else has changed due to opportunistic events (such as a mission or marriage). Just because a change is political or opportunistic does not make it any less heartfelt (and painful I should add).
