Hey Myrna,
LAKE JACKSON, Texas, Jan 10, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Ron Paul tonight scored an historic second-place victory in the 2012 New Hampshire Primary. Below please find comments from National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton:
"Ron Paul tonight had an incredibly strong second-place finish in New Hampshire and has stunned the national media and political establishment.
"When added to Paul's top-tier showing in Iowa, it's clear he is the sole Republican candidate who can take on and defeat both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama.
"The race is becoming more clearly a two-man race between establishment candidate Mitt Romney and Ron Paul, the candidate of authentic change. That means there is only one true conservative choice.
"Ron Paul has won more votes in Iowa and New Hampshire than any candidate but Mitt Romney.
"Ron Paul and Mitt Romney have been shown in national polls to be the only two candidates who can defeat Barack Obama.
"And Ron Paul and Mitt Romney are the only two candidates who can run a full, national campaign, competing in state after state over the coming weeks and months. Ron Paul's fundraising numbers -- over $13 million this quarter -- also prove he will be able to compete with Mitt Romney. No other candidate can do all of these things.
"Ron Paul is clearly the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney as the campaign goes forward.
"We urge Ron Paul's opponents who have been unsuccessfully trying to be the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney to unite by getting out of the race and uniting behind Paul's candidacy.
"Ron Paul has the boldest plan to cut spending, a dedication to protecting life, and a lifelong dedication to the Constitution and limited government. He also has the necessary support to campaign nationwide against Mitt Romney.
"Our campaign is already planning ahead for South Carolina, Florida, and beyond. Soon Ron Paul will head to South Carolina to begin a feverish round of campaigning.
"Ron Paul is in this race for the long haul. And he is ready to fight.
"See you on the campaign trail."

The results are in, and my campaign’s incredibly strong second-place finish in New Hampshire has the national media stunned!
Add that to my top-tier showing in Iowa, and it’s clear I’m the one Republican candidate who can take on and DEFEAT both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama.
The race is becoming more clearly a two-man race between Mitt Romney and me.
That means there is only one true conservative choice.
I urge my opponents who have been unsuccessfully trying to be the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney to unite behind my candidacy.
I have the bold plan to cut spending. The dedication to protecting life. The lifelong dedication to the Constitution and limited government. And the necessary support to campaign nationwide against Mitt Romney.
So I’m going to try my best to spend a few hours relishing this great finish. But the truth is, I’m already thinking about South Carolina, Florida, and beyond.
I am in this race for the long haul. And I am ready to fight.
I believe I can ride this momentum to the Republican presidential nomination – but I’m going to need your help to do so.
My campaign is holding a Money Bomb this Saturday, January 14. Can I count on you to IMMEDIATELY pledge to contribute?
My staff is already busy implementing an ambitious plan for South Carolina, including hard-hitting voter mail and TV ads.
In fact, I instructed them to add to our South Carolina activities tonight after seeing my top-tier finish in New Hampshire.
And I’m headed there tomorrow to begin a feverish round of campaigning.
But I need to be able to pay for it all.
Unlike my opponents, I don’t have Wall Street banksters lining up to write fat checks to my campaign.
I’m grateful I’ve been able to count on the generosity of good folks like you.
The great news is, because of your past support, we’re racking up one success after another.
But with my opponents attacking me as hard as they can every chance they get, your support has never been more important.
So please pledge to contribute IMMEDIATELY.
Every dollar you can give is absolutely critical.
So please be as generous as you can! 
For Liberty,
Ron Paul
P.S. After my incredibly strong showing tonight in New Hampshire, it’s clear I’m the one Republican candidate with the resources, volunteers, and organization to take on and DEFEAT both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama.
With your help, I’m hoping to ride this wave of momentum to the Republican presidential nomination.
So please help me capitalize on tonight’s success by pledging right away to contribute to my campaign’s January 14 Money Bomb!

Hi Jim,
Ron Paul keeps saying the same things. I hope you are right about him winning in New Hempshire. I think he will win, but will they let him. I read somewhere where they would not let him win. The things is he is backed by the people not the lobbyist. WE will see.
