Although you didn't direct this question to me, I'll chime in. Paul is looking brighter and brighter on my radar...

I just laugh every time I see how the news media manipulates and presents those things called "polls."

Yeah...

There was one a little while back and when reporting on the results they said (and I can't remember the names) Candidate A came in first... Candidate C & D pulled up 3rd & 4th.

You know what that means?

Ron Paul came in second. But they deliberately didn't even mention his name.

Ron Paul’s Ascent Won’t Last, or Help His Cause


It is possible that Paul will come in first in a fractured field in the Iowa caucuses: Those caucuses reward intensity of support, which he certainly has. The notion that he will be the Republican nominee is too absurd to spend a moment contemplating.

If he were to help the reelection of President Barack Obama by splitting the Republican vote, the party would probably hold it against his son and ally, Rand Paul, who is in his first year as a Republican senator from Kentucky and is widely considered more politically talented than his father. Does the elder Paul want to take that risk?

Yes.

Thanks for quoting for us the words of those who tell the followers what to think.

They said the same thing about Ronald Reagan.

Digging,
Of all the supporters on-line that are the worst, Ron Paul has them. O'Reilly had to disqualify him from a poll because his supporters get on-line and slam all the polls. How dishonest is that? His supporters are a real big turn off to me. Someone said that if they bother you, tell them you are reporting and turning them in under the Patriot Act - they will then take their tin-foil hats and go home. LOL!

But, we are in the same boat, supporting different candidates - the media is against them both. The GOP Establishment wants Romney. They don't want anything to change.

I will agree with Glenn, although he is not endorsing Ron Paul - I would take Ron Paul over Gingrich any day.
