Ron Paul places third in Maine
Romney asserts victory in Maine GOP caucus - The Boston Globe
Ron Paul places third in Maine Romney asserts victory in Maine GOP caucus Email|Print| Text size – + February 3, 2008 Mitt Romney claimed victory in yesterday's Republican caucus in Maine, where he was leading with about 52 percent of the vote as ballot counting continued last night. "This is a people's victory," Romney said while campaigning in Minnesota. "It is, in my view, also an indication that conservative change is something that the American people want to see." "I think you're going to see a growing movement across this country to get behind my candidacy and to propel this candidacy forward," he said. "I think it's a harbinger of what you're going to see on Tuesday." The party's municipal caucuses were heavily attended across Maine. With 57 percent of the caucus sites reporting, the former Massachusetts governor had 52 percent of the vote. John McCain trailed with 22 percent, Ron Paul was third with 19 percent, and Mike Huckabee had 5 percent. Undecided votes accounted for 2 percent. Despite a storm the night before that left much of the state coated with slush and ice, cars jammed the parking lot outside an Augusta elementary school where Kennebec County municipalities were caucusing. Republican caucuses were being held in about 410 Maine municipalities. A few dozen towns, especially in northern Maine's Aroostook County, held caucuses Friday, and a few more were set for today and later this month.

On a side note, has anyone noticed how quickly the mainstream media started attacking McCain this last week? I felt like it got exponentially worse every day. And these are "conservative" pundits who are attacking him. Thanks for this. I forgot Maine even had their caucus this weekend.
