Don’t count Paul out

Ron Paul supporters weren’t expecting to take South Carolina by storm.

Matt Kneece, president of Gamecocks for Ron Paul and a second-year political science student, said that McCain’s victory in SC wouldn’t affect Paul’s chances in the elections adversely.

He said Ron Paul got second place in Nevada, which has more delegates than SC, and there are still more states to go.

The next primary of consequence will be Florida, Kneece said.

“We think we have a chance there,” he said. Paul has beaten Giuliani in every primary so far and national polls have been inconsistent.

“So it’s too early to count him out yet.”
