Sure, but not as much as Romney's delegate count is growing.
Super Tuesday will be the end of the Paul campaign.

In the unlikely scenerio Paul was able to steal the Republican nomination through slight of hand and not by votes how is that a good thing? Its not like in a few cases where such things have been very close between two canidates. He has pretty much been dead last the entire time. He polls at the back of the pack and the votes follow that. The people have spoken and they do not want him. Why should a small a group try and force him on the party? He would get smashed in the general election because he would need people to vote for him without using tricks.

He's in second place even by the medias delegate count.
How do you figure he is last?
Tell me what tricks are being used?
We are playing the game the way it was set up.

If I understand things correctly from the various postings and stories across the internet, the following scenarios seems to be taking place:
As is likley, the PTB do not want support for Ron Paul to grow, so their MSM report the results they want to see which appear to include many fraudulant and manipulated counts. However, the selection of the delegates is done (if I am not mistaken) by those present at the meetings. As it seems that the majority of people present are Ron Paul supporters, then it makes sense that he gets most delegates. This in reality probably represents what the true feelings of those who voted regardless of how their votes were counted (or not).
In a nutshell, votes can easily be manipulated but you need true supports selected to back your puppet.

Ron Paul is not a Presidential canidate he is a movement...hopefully whose time has come.
Peace
...He has pretty much been dead last the entire time...
...When the vote is counted he is last, When the polls are taken he is last...
...He polls at the back of the pack and the votes follow that...
The people have spoken and they do not want him.
The Rasmussen Reports poll, which included Republicans, Democrats and Independents, suggests that Mr. Paul appeals to a wide range of voters... this poll is an indication that the former Air Force surgeon may be a Republican front-runner.
