The GOP Delegate Count - just beginning!

The folks at Glenn Beck's radio show (he was out with a back injury) were talking yesterday...or maybe the day before...about how the big states never get a chance to choose the President of the country, because the caucuses for the choosing of the candidates happens in the small states.

And Rush said something similar today:GOP Delegate Count

RUSH: Some fascinating numbers coming out of the New Hampshire primary. Now, there 1,144 delegate votes needed to win the Republican nomination. That's the total necessary: 1,144. After two primaries... Well, you really have to say one because the Hawkeye Cauci does not produce delegate votes. But after two skirmishes... We'll count the Hawkeye Cauci as a primary just for the sake of this discussion. After Iowa and New Hampshire, Romney has 12 delegate votes (12 out of 1,144) and Ron Paul has ten. He lost two primaries but he's got ten delegate votes. He's two votes behind Romney, and they're telling us the race is over. The Republican establishment says, "It's over! Everybody's gonna implode in South Carolina. It's up for grabs," but nothing...

They're telling us that the presumptive nominee is Romney, it's over. Okay, so you got 1144 delegate votes to wrap up the nomination. Romney has 12 and they're telling us it's over. Ron Paul has ten, Santorum has seven, Huntsman two, Gingrich two. Even Rick Perry has two! Even Rick Perry has two delegate votes right now. He's only ten behind Romney. And they're telling us that the race is over. They are. It's the same thing that happened in 2000. (interruption) Yeah, he's come in dangerously high in both places. He's on the verge of winning in Iowa, until "The Intelligent People" took him out.
