Less than 200 votes was the difference between the GOP actually having a real chance to reform itself or definitely maintain the status quo.
I will not be voting for any GOPer come the general election. If the GOP refuses to reform itself into this century, screw them. I'm sick of having to vote for their trash candidates. For a libertarian, I was previously fairly reliable GOP.
Just let me have this one post, guys. I'm extremely furious and even ashamed right now. I just got back from work, worrying about what was going to happen. I'm just so sick of the corruption in both parties.* I'm crushed, and I don't know what to think. 
*No, I'm not claiming anything was rigged in the poll.
Zarn, I don't understand why you are so ashamed. Paul did well and so did Bachmann. They are pretty close allies in congress and have a good relationship. I don't think Bachmann is so establishment that she is poison to Paul voters. She certainly doesn't have the creepy Bilderberg, CFR, Fed and wall street cabal connections that the other candidates do. I would be pleased with either candidate. I would prefer Paul, to Paul-lite, but Paul-lite is better than anything else we have to offer. I would like to see her give a treasury secretary position to one of the Pauls if she wins (vp would be nice too).
