That really says very little given the group of candidates running for President.

The rest of them were slinging mud at each other and he was focused on the issues. I love that guy.

^ Absolutely. There is really no one else worth considering in either party. (Possibly that other libertarian, Gary Johnson, but he is a far distant second to Dr. Paul.)

The one that got all the attention for making a dog poop joke last night? Yes, that one.

^ OK, fine then, I'll unqualify it: there is simply non one else worth considering out there except for future president Ron Paul.

This was NOT a straw poll, but rather a scientific one.

Ron Paul second, Jon Huntsman third, Rick Perry embarrassed in New Hampshire poll

By Brent Budowsky - 09/22/11 11:53 AM ET


If the new Suffolk University poll predicts future trends, things get interesting. Mitt Romney will get some credit for being far ahead, but since he is a neighbor to New Hampshire, the benefit is limited. What is really interesting is that Ron Paul is now in second place, and what could prove more significant is that Jon Huntsman is in third place in the poll, and Rick Perry is nowhere, in fourth. Will any pundits suggest New Hampshire is now a two-way race between Mitt Romney and Ron Paul (wink)?

Paul has real opportunity here, but also risk. Can he get his number above 20 percent, or is he trapped at 14 percent? New Hampshire gives Paul a real shot at center stage, but he has to make the most of it. And I love his move about Dennis Kucinich. Assuming no Democratic primary, could Ron Paul win some anti-war crossover votes, as I have been suggesting is possible?...

From the link: "And I love his move about Dennis Kucinich. Assuming no Democratic primary, could Ron Paul win some anti-war crossover votes, as I have been suggesting is possible?"

He's refering to Paul saying he would consider Kucinich for his Cabinet.

Shocked Shocked The kook of one party gaining credibility by saying he would elevate the kook of another party to the Cabinet? That's a good move?

The republic is in more danger than I thought.

If the Republic can weather four years of Obama after eight years of Bush, I think it can handle four years of a Paul-Kucinich ticket.

^ Paul-Kucinich would be the epitome of non-partisanship. Do you really expect the Yat to take off his partisan blinders?

Yat, I know this may come as a shock, but some people are actually interested in what is best for the country.

Wow, a mainstream article actually mentions Paul as a real, normal candidate!

Quote:
Texas Gov. Rick Perry has emerged as the Republican front-runner, with former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney his chief rival. Farther back in the polls are Rep. Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota and Rep. Ron Paul of Texas.


If he could just get a fair shot at coverage, the others are toast.
