I think Rachel was saying last night that Paul ended up with the most delegates from Iowa. Was I hearing that right?
He seems to be going for a really weird record... getting more delegates after suspending a campaign then before.

Oh... and fuck Ron Paul.

While those on the left cheered on the President at the Iowa's Democratic Party state convention, emotions ran high at the Republican Party's convention Saturday.
Two passionate factions spent the day bickering about whom they should support at the national convention.
In the end, Ron Paul supporters dominated the final delegate count-- even though Paul isn't actively campaigning for the presidential nomination any more.
At least 21 of the 28 delegates backed Paul, who came in third in the iowa caucuses.
