Agreed. Paul was counting on large numbers of young voters, independents and first-time voters. This is two states now that he has failed to deliver -- and nobody can now claim that people under 30 and independents are not turning out for the primaries -- they have, in record numbers! (participation in the Democratic Iowa caucuses showed near double that of 2004.) Don't forget that independents can, in New Hampshire, vote in either primary -- and they have overwhelmingly chosen Democrats and rejected Ron Paul.
I love Kucinich, but I think he's just in the race to gain a forum in debates.. It would be a good time for Richardson to drop out if he wants to save face.
