From another thread:

Tucker Carlson and Pat Buchanan discuss Fox vs. Ron Paul:

Check out what Buchanan says: people from all over the country are coming in to Iowa and some are registering to vote to take part in the caucuses. If that is true, wouldn't that be voter fraud?

This thread's title looked a bit strange to me until I realized there are other Paulistas afoot. I have to get used to "Paulistas" not referring to the real ones -- that is, S�o Paulo's Paulistas. Wink

According to the Iowa Secretary of State website:

Who May Register To Vote
Before you can vote in Iowa, you must be registered.
To register to vote in Iowa, you must:
� be a citizen of the United States
� be a resident of Iowa
� be at least 17 - 1/2 years old (you must be 18 to vote)
� not have been convicted of a felony (unless your
rights have been restored)
not currently be judged �incompetent� to vote by a
court

give up your right to vote in any other place

The next to last one would be especially applicable in this particular situation.

Perhaps we can convince our local ones to change the spelling to

"Pallistas" since that is the effect they usually have on discussions; more far-fetched, but also possible: Appallingistas.

Warning! This is completely hypothetical:

Could you imagine Hillary Clinton and Ron Paul in A general election debate?

Paul would be completely destroyed.

That would be great. She would be exposed as the neo-con scum she is.

When I said 'destroyed' I should clarify I meant electorally. Think of how bad Mondale was beat in '84. We're talking about a landslide victory greater than that of Mondale's embaressment.
