Mitt lost his home state of mass this weekend. His Lt Gov. Healy was shown the door in Essex County. Only the blind sheeple vote Mitt...like Zombies crying... ROOOAAADDS ...someone make bigger government so we can make more ROOOOAAADDSS.
And Paul also swept Louisiana and Alaska.

Ron Paul WON Iowa, Minnesota and Colorado, Washington State. I know there are others too.
The true delegates count?
Romney with approx. 600
Ron Paul with around 400,
despite the establishment’s desperate attempt to have people believe otherwise. It’s very likely much closer than that.
The older and ignorant mainstream-news-believing supporters of mostly Romney and Gingrich are losing out as a result of being left out of the loop.
Romney is truly only supposedly leading the race currently, despite having an almost identical political record and historical political philosophy as Barack Obama, because of how incredibly hard the media has pushed him as the “likely” candidate, including misleading its unwitting followers about who’s actually winning. Romney politically resembles Obama and is the most likely to continue 'their' major campaign contributors' "1%'r" political agendas.
People are waking up and now CNN, knows they’ve lost the majority of their viewers over the last couple years, about 1/2 of their viewers, so now they're reporting a few honest stories about Ron Paul and still having a chance to win the republican nomination.
Santorum’s "young" Delegates have decided to side with Paul, now clearing the way for what looks to be an almost certain “brokered” National Convention in Aug.
Perhaps, as it is now playing out, one of the main reasons for the establishment elite to keep desperately pushing incredibly overreaching internet censorship bills like SOPA and now CISPA is because of what is now ironically playing out, right under much of America’s nose.
Google "Elite media killing Romney 2012" and find the truth... Then Google "Reality Check: Infighting at More GOP Caucuses and What the MSM Won't Tell You About Iowa and Minnesota"
Do your research people. No more TV. They are lies and manipulation. WAKE UP!

If anyone I would like to see DROP from this race is that KOOK Ron Paul! How ignorant of him to waste these poor people's money on his wild DELUSION of his when everyone else, Santorum and Gingrigh, who had far more delegates than him, have already droped.
Not to mention, this is his third time round! And it's the same "conspiracy" theory nonesense as last timel... someone in his family needs to seriously start thinking of what Old Folks home to put him in!

No thanks. Romney is the same as Obama. I'll take Ron Paul's honesty and dedication to obeying the Constitution any day and every day.

Way to go Mitt Romney!
For you Ron Paul conspirators, wikipedia has a good delegate count. Mitt Romney has pledged To make changes in the government to return power back to the states. Ask yourself why Ron Paul in all of the debates never argued or accused one another. Ask yourself why Ron Paul's website had ads to donate to mitt's campaign.

A vote for Ron Paul is not a wasted vote! Wake up America, do not let the media elect our next president. Please share the video with everyone you know.
RON PAUL 2012!

Walsh,you are off the wall for even suggesting those numbers.The Wall Street Journal is the last place I would garner that information.Wall Street is who backs Romney(and Obama).I would seriously doubt Mitt has more than 400 delegates.It is just up to the Gingrich and Santorum delegates to crown Ron Paul in Tampa,and the actions of the RNC chairman who is trying unsuccessfully to cram Romney down our throats.Great propaganda though.Hats off.

Thank you for stating the obvious in this article. The obvious being that the Northeastern Republican can do well among Northeastern Republicans. He will however, continue to struggle in the South. Even if Mit does somehow manage to win the primary, he will most definitely lose in the general.

Mitt Romney supports the Project for the New American Century and the Foreign Policy Initiative, the think-tank which promotes: diplomatic, economic, and military engagement IN THE WORLD! Iraq was all lies, so is Iran. The media has a war to sell you, are you buying it? Mitt Romney even named his foreign policy plan a new American Century. I am voting for Ron Paul! End the wars!

If you follow the Associated Press link, it will take you to the delegate tracker on the Wall Street Journal. Furthermore, this tracker has not been updated with the acutal delegate counts that have occurred in Minnesota, Iowa, Colorado and probably more.
With the actual delegate being merged with the Associated Press' estimated count, you will see Romney's count fall and Paul's count rise.
