CNN, the Communist News Network, will push the candidate that they feel will do least well against hussein in the fall. No wonder that they pick Ru Paul as the one...........

Phil's the fat one puts you in mind of the Pillsbury Doughboy on LSD.

Rather bold for a Paulie to attempt the candidate personal appearance attacks.

You anti-Paulists have been making fun of him for like five or six years anyway, is this gonna somehow make y'all step up the insults about his appearance? You really think I care anyway? lol Of course Phil does have that "Command Presence" that only a guy who used deferments to avoid Vietnam could have. A no-shixt officer is made fun of. tff

Unfortunately,the marine vets yesterday who stated RP has absolutely no command presence is the reality headline.

I guess if Paul comes in 3rd or 4th today, in a state loaded with military personnel and bases,the self acclaimed military favorite and command presence question will have been answered.

If Ron Paul had taken his own the advice on improving the delivery of his message that he mentioned during this last debate much sooner (Years sooner..) he would be a more serious candidate today, to a much wider group.

He was so much better in this debate than he has ever been. It was great to see, really. He just isn't going to win, but he can be seen as more legitimate and drive home the best parts of his message, if he is more careful of what he says and how he says it.

If Paul was the type to say, sit in front of a mirror with his handlers and experts who they had hired, teaching him to lie and not give out tells, like Clinton did, then he wouldn't be the kind of candidate we want anyway.

Those who look to outward appearances and exclude more important aspects of a man will end up with a great liar for their candidate.

Wonder why nobody's enthusiastic enough about any of the cookie-cutter candidates to do the same for them.

Oh--and you're a Gingrich guy, right? How's he doing in the primaries? At least as well as Paul, isn't he?

Ummm...because actual real voters have already done it for them.

Paul up with Gingrich in the polls? Surely,you're kidding!

I thought the Romney would be doing better than he apparently is, but I believe he is the strongest candidate in the field - he can appeal to the broad electorate.

I think Barak's referring to the fact that on the two referendums already counted, Paul has beaten Phil like a baby daddy beating a BBW.

I could get behind Newt/Paul or Paul/Newt, Santorum/Newt or Newt/Santorum or any combination as long as Romney isn't in it.

I'll Hold my nose and vote for Romney even, but if it comes down to a Romney Obama race we lose no matter what.

A small step to the left, I guess, is better than a giant one, but is still the wrong direction -- That's if Romney wins, but I think Hussian beats him.

I can just imagine the Debate over Obama care where Romney criticizes it and Obama says, "Well, I got the idea from you".
Then Romney goes "Humana, humina, gollyiddley gee".

But in reality I expect the GOP to do the same as they did last time and pick the closest thing in the Republican primaries to a Democrat just so we can hope for an R in the White house while we slowly march down the progressive trail a little step at a time.

Unfortunately, it is the entire package that is considered by folks who see, and evaluate, the candidates. To just ignore the areas where he is weaker detracts from the areas where he is stronger. This makes his overall effort less effective. That is a shame, but happens to be true.

Ron Paul clearly clearly recognized this, spoke about it when asked what he would change and had possibly the best debate performance of his career.

I find it difficult to see where he is wrong in his self assessment & hope he continues improving his overall performance. We need many of his ideas to be taken much more seriously by many more people. Wouldn't you agree with that?

Did I say polls? Huh. I'm sorry, I meant to say primaries.

He's won many primary elections. If you mean only presidential primary elections, I'll ask how many Gingrich has won.


don't play the dumbass, Hawk. and actually you're wrong about that too because I think he's only had primary opposition twice in his 43 reelection campaigns down in Lake Earmark....er, Jackson.

so you look to mystical insights and ignore what you see? that's a good plan. the whole Paul cult is built around that...it's as much a hope and change children's crusade as Obama's was. Paul is what he is....what you see is what you get. There's really not much there.

So, without opposition, wins aren't really wins? Don't you think there are plenty of folks who would have loved to replace him as US Representative from his district over the years but, understanding they'd stand no chance due to Paul's popularity, didn't bother?
