AboutLane Expertise As a Conservative Republican I can answer pretty much any question on any issue that faces America, namely issues that are hot topics in the political ring. From social issues like abortion to broader issues like The War On Terror; I am here to give you straight forward answers to help you better understand America's Political landscape. Being that I am a Republican, however, does not mean that I cannot look at situations objectively. There are areas where I disagree with the Conservative base and times where, because of my open-mindedness, display slightly more Liberal views - depending on the issue, of course.
Experience I run a political blog called The Black & White Report (http://bwreport.blogspot.com/), write a weekly Conservative column (http://nicklane.townhall.com/) and also do extensive research into the area. I closely follow most stories which have political stance and publicize my opinions in a clean, informative way.
Organizations I belong to The Republican Party, or the GOP.
Publications The Black & White Report (http://bwreport.blogspot.com/) Today's America (http://nicklane.townhall.com/)
Education/Credentials Although I still attend High School it does not make me any less equipped to answer political questions because I devote much of my time to politics (much more than your average teen)I watch carefully what goes on in the political arena, I ask questions and challenge those in charge. I get to the truth and stay away from ignorant Partisan politics.
Awards and Honors Although not relevent I receive straight A's in school and maintain a constant 4.0 GPA.
Question why didn't mitt romney get any delegates from FL's primary? i thought delgates came even if you lost but won some votes. thanks.
Answer Hello and thank you for your question. You are right that in some states delegates are divided amongst the candidates according to how many votes they received, but in Florida they have a "winner takes all" system where whoever receives the most votes, receives all of the delegates. Also, as an added trivia fact, Florida only gets 57 delegates this year (for the Republicans) as a penalty for moving their primary ahead of "Super Tuesday" (February 5th) where 24 states hold their Primaries.
I hope I was able to answer your question, if not please ask a follow-up. Have a great day!
