The reaction to the announcement of his win was met with much greater enthusiasm this year; yet Fox chose to show the subdued reaction and boos that some gave last year.
Ron Paul wins presidential straw poll; Mitt Romney second

Paul garnered 30% of the vote, with Romney getting 23%. The next closest finishers -- New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and former New Mexico governor Gary Johnson -- got 6%. |

hahaha
The story here is not Barack Obama winning a second term in office, but we want to point to the strength of Mitt Romney coming in second, thanks to deceptive reporting, endless corporate funding and people who vote for anyone with an (R) next to their name. |

Christie is one dude in the GOP I would consider voting for. I know nothing about the NM governor.
Alas I'm a DC resident, so my vote is meaningless. Yay. We really should get rid of the electoral college. |

He's very similar to Ron Paul. Think of him as being less Lew Rockwell and more Reason Mag. |
