Ron Paul: ‘If Enthusiasm Wins Elections, We Win Hands Down!’
Despite coming in fourth place in the Florida GOP primary, Republican hopeful Ron Paul stayed optimistic about his prospects Tuesday night. “If enthusiasm wins elections, we win hands down!” Paul quipped, delivering his speech from Nevada. “You know, a few months ago, there were — how many candidates were there? There were nine. We’re down to four. But tonight, tonight, I saw a statistic we’re in third place when it comes to delegates! That’s what really counts.”
“If you have an energized group of people that are working in a campaign and actually believe in something, it’s better to work in the caucus states,” Paul added. “This is what’s been so fantastic with the campaign. I’ve been doing a little bit of campaigning for liberty for a long time. Let me tell you, Something big is happening in this country and it’s all very favorable!”
While Florida awarded all 50 of its delegates to Romney, Paul is counting on later states that distribute delegates proportionally to rack up his delegate count.
