Ron Paul Loses First Online Poll
Breaking a precedent of several years duration now, Ron Paul has finally lost an online poll. Indeed, he has come in fourth in the Townhall/HotAir primary, whose results show Newt Gingrich way out front:
Newt Gingrich: 36.5% Mitt Romney: 18.8% Michele Bachmann: 17.7% Ron Paul: 17.4% Rick Perry: 9.5%
Over 250,000 votes were cast.

Seems odd that Bachmann polled so high and that Perry polled so low.

Townhall.com criticizes Ron Paul supporters for straw poll antics The State Column | Staff | Friday, December 16, 2011
Conservative news website Townhall.com criticized Ron Paul supporters for straw poll antics prior to releasing the final results for the Townhall/HotAir Primary Thursday. More than 250,000 votes were cast over a 52-hour period from Tuesday through Thursday. Townhall.com�s Jonathan Garthwaite called the Townhall/HotAir Primary the �largest and most secure digital poll of conservatives ever.�
�A glitch in the programming allowed people to put the same candidate in as a 1st and 2nd choice. Ron Paul�s folks did it 50% of the time,� Townhall.com said on the Townhall.com Presidential Straw Poll Facebook page.
�The other candidates� people did it less that 2% of the time. What�s that say about Ron Paul voters? Taking their ball and going home?� Townhall.com added.
This is not the first time that Mr. Paul�s supporters have been accused of straw poll antics. Conservative talk show host Bill O�Reilly pulled a straw poll from his website, claiming that Mr. Paul�s supporters had �slammed� his straw poll with votes.
According to Townhall.com, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich won the Townhall/HotAir Primary with 36.5 percent of the votes. Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney pulled 18.8 percent of the votes for a second place finish. Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann garnered 17.7 percent of the votes for a third place finish and Mr. Paul pulled in 17.4 percent of the votes for a fourth place finish.
The article�s author, Mr. Garthwaite, posited that �with 45% of readers sticking to their support of Michele Bachmann, Ron Paul and Rick Perry, and with three weeks to go before Iowa, it appears the race hasn�t become any more solidified than it was a month ago.�

Quick! somebody hide all the belts and butter knives from TRH!
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
I wanted to like Bachman but she skeered me off months ago....she had her moments last night, really slapped Newt and RP both, but there's something creepy about her.
one of my partners said today she reminds men of their horrible first wife. I'm still on my first so can't speak to that, but I think it's a given she'll run really well in Iowa.

Can you guys believe that freaking Romney supported a ban on assault weapons years ago. What a pos. Oh, uh y'all were talking about RP? Uh, what for, we can always pull for Romney?

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.
I think a "first wife" is probably better presidential material than one we would be happy living with. And as far as the foster kids are concerned, I'm not going to fault her for that. If there were something improper, someone would have dug it up (or made it up) by now. But she's not my first choice unless it comes down to her vs Barry.

Well, at an est 1.2 mil in gov reimbursement to temporary house (some were there a just few months) teenagers with "eating disorders" the opportunism begins to show.
Bachmann...as obnoxious as Nancy Pelosi, only she's a Republican.
And why didn't TheRealHawkeye post this little factoid on this poll, since he's so enthusiastic to post anything and everything Ron Paul?? Ahhh...the illusion blows away on the wind.
