Ron Paul Supporters Question Maine Caucuses Results

The mood was grim at Paul’s election night party here Saturday when it was announced that the former Massachusetts governor had won the state’s non-binding caucuses.
The crowd booed, then went eerily silent, when the results were revealed.
“Liar!” shouted one supporter when state GOP Chairman Charlie Webster announced the results. “How many dead voted?” cried another.
Even as Webster continued to speak, the crowd resumed talking among themselves and ignored the remainder of the announcement.
A seemingly energized Paul tried to put a positive spin on his performance, which was nearly double the percentage he had secured in 2008.
“The revolution is just beginning,” he said, to a crowd that immediately perked up when he strolled in just minutes after the results were announced. “We lost by almost 200 votes … it’s almost like we could call it a tie.”
“We have the message that America needs at this point in time,” he continued. “This country is bankrupt, and the most important thing that the American people can do right now admit the truth. The truth is that we can’t continue this way.”
If Paul had viewed the results as a set-back, he showed no sign of it, jubilantly launching balloons from the stage into the crowd, even kicking one into the audience.
