Dean wins delegates tonight...but you wouldn't know it

[Nazgul35]

by watching the news...

Dean is in the hunt in NM...actually may win the NM third district and is slowly inching up in AZ into third....

But all the news is reporting is that Dean has suffered badly tonight...

The truth is that all four candidates have picked up delegates tonight and none are dead, any attempt to paint such a picture is premature!!

1. we've already kicked this dog..the DNC doesn't want this to continue

and the media has their favorite...the next month will determine it

[if it comes from the whitehouse it must be true]

2. Shep smith on faux did a rundown on this

Kerry will lead after tonight.

3. Some hope

I thought this article was pretty good; it certainly is by no means over for Dean:

4. Thanks I appreciate it

As a person who has worked for and will continue to work for Deans campaign I have to tell you I was disheartened to hear one of the Democratic Leader Council member Al From being interviewed on a European radio program and this guy was practically yelling about how Dean had no agenda only anger and when the opposing person he was debating with said that is certainly not true that Dean is a positive influence and started naming one by one his platforms this guy tried to interrupt him and was totally incensed, he was raving like a lunatic.

What kind of people do we have running our party? I suggest you all regardless of who you support join the Democratic Party as a precinct committee person and lets boot these cranky old moderate Republicans out of the party, its time for them to be put out to pasture.

9. Ok here is what I know so far.

No I don't I was listening to " BBC World Service" this morning. Maybe we can find it that wayI was about half awake and came straight out of bed when this guy lost it. What a hell of a way to wake up.

Ask to be on my email list and maybe we can find it.

14. Al From and his DLC are a cancer on the Democratic party...

and if they get away with the "Kerronation" it's in terminal stages.

5. Look if they have their eye off us we can move a little

all he needs to do is stay in the hunt. He put no cash in these states and anything he gets is a win.

10. HD got trounced. as expected.

it's now on to the 17th and Mar. 2nd.
after mar. 2nd, maybe we form a 3rd Party.
the Party Bosses obviously want Kerry. maybe becuz it's "his turn."
it's just amazing how quickly this crumbled.
i thought it would go deep into April, at least.
maybe next time. - evil

12. Where did he win delegates?

He is 0 for 6 now. Zero delegates. He has a shot at some in NM

[Nazgul35]

13. yes...

and he had a shot at some from AZ at the time I posted the thread....I am not sure if he fell below the 15% threshold since than....

but you can't hold time against me!

15. The delegates are based on proportion of votes received

Not based on winning the entire state, like the idiotic electoral college.

16. Fourth place finishers tend to be ignored

Still, Dean had the first interview on Larry King. He is actually getting more coverage than someone who did no campaigning would normally get.

The fact that Dean has gone from prohibitive favorite to unable to mount a campaign in less than a month would seem to be the story to me.
