    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    My hometown of Franklinton, LA (population 4,000) had a crowd nearly that large for Bobby Jindal (a gubernatorial candidate) on one of the hottest days of the year. That isn't "good"...

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    I am talking about his followers, not him. I like him as a candidate except for a very few issues. His supporters tend to be more than a tad fanatical. They tend to be absolutely crazy.

    I think it...

    Rational is such a relative term. :-)

    Come to think of it, so is "hoards".

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    This supports my claim that some (dare I say most) of Ron Paul's supporters are absolutely crazy.

    Huckabee/Paul would be a great ticket for the Republican party. It's a good dream, but will never happen.

    I don't know if Paul's "House of cards" video has been posted here, but it should. It speaks to true fiscal conservatives.

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    I really like that Ron Paul is increasing in popularity and his momentum seems to be swinging. I still don't think he'll be the Republican nominee, but I hope he gets the chance.

    I do want to...

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    Johnny Rotten is on some reality show now. Something about the next great rocker.

    Wow. What a lame 2,000th post. Talking about the sex pistols instead of the Bulldogs. Oh well...

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    Ron Paul will be on Leno tonight. He is following Johnny Rotten, so you may wanna miss this one. Unless, of course, you can time tuning in to after Johnny and before Ron Paul.

    Haha. I'm a graduate student at LSU with a stay at home Mom and a baby at home. I can't give $10 more to CHAMPS :-)

    FWIW, I agree that in all likelihood a Dem will win the White House regardless...

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    Ok, polls are innacurate... except the one you posted. Despite given the context of recent elections and fundraising, Ron Paul having less than 20% of the leading candidates is not an issue. It's...

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    Which is more important: cash on hand or the ability to raise funds? You are concentrating on one metric. Paul hasn't spend much money, has some on hand, but it has not translated to poll numbers.

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    It would be a first. I'm all for it, but if you want the real truth, it probably won't happen. I'm arguing with ideals vs. reality here. Accept it or don't, I don't care. However, I give Ron Paul a...

    Yes, those are points addressing my questions and the point. However, $9 million into his campaign he still isn't breaking 5% in a state poll according to presidentpolls2008.com. His average is about...

    My numbers according to the source I posted (opensecrets.org) are EXACTLY right. They were only updated to 2nd quarter. The bottom line is Paul's less than $9 total raised is less than 25% of the...

    Re: How about some Ron Paul love?

    I don't know how to verbalize why you are looking at this the wrong way, so I'll make some points.

    Ron Paul can't raise the money. According to opensecrets.org, Ron Paul has raised $3,000,000 in...
