Fox news in DAMAGE CONTROL over Ron Paul win at CPAC with video!
It is way early, it is unscientific," said a Fox News host, even as the split-screen showed Glenn Beck on stage at the conference. "Perhaps it offers nothing more than bragging rights, uh, through the course of this year. But, it is quite a, uh, enthusiastic crowd. What a difference a year makes."
.
What a difference a year makes, indeed. Paul himself said something quite similar a day prior, when he spoke before the largest, loudest audience of any other presenter.
.
He asked if the crowd remembered when he was the guy "off in the corner" predicting doom, and none in the media paid him any serious mind.
.
"All the sudden, the crash that I had predicting all along: it came," Paul said. "And now, Fox News TV has had me on about 60 times since the campaign was over."
.
On its Web site, Fox News said that the vote is "not necessarily a good forecaster" of conservatives' leanings nation wide.

And it would appear that "Jocean"
is in damage control mode over Fox News' twisting of the truth!
As she has always been in every one of her sockpuppet incarnations here on the DP --- always defending the most egregiously corrupt and vile attacks on Ron Paul by those who are clearly threatened by his pro-liberty message. Which would include Jocean, evidently.

"I like it when you try to think!
I'm gonna leave you some water in a bowl and check on you tomorrow. I've got some adult stuff to do that you don't have to worry about.
Like I'd demean myself by answering you... I don't debate my cat either.
For the record, I've a higher opinion of my cat.
Till tomorrow.. don't pee in your computer chair!"
Is this how you treat strangers you don't agree with outside the internet, face to face? I'm guessing probably not, else you would be drastically reducing your own life expectancy.
I have to admit though, the holier-then-thou attitude you have going there is pretty cute. Like your some sort of high roller that can't be bothered to entertain a point of view you don't agree with.
Ironically, you act awfully adolescent for a so-called adult.
It must be worth something because Ron said Mitt
spent a bit of money trying to win.
Loser.

Ron Paul "Sign Wave Across the USA" -- November 5th!
Fox News has a LOT to repent for
as do TOOLS like Glenn Beck.
Until they do, sincerely, they will continue a long slide into a vortex of karmic destruction of their OWN MAKING.
What goes around comes around toolbags!
Don't continue yer folly!!

I don't know what your intentions are, but I can only hope that they are of good. Devon is not trying to be harsh on you, but he is trying to gauge you. You cannot possibly come on this site and think you will slide in if your intentions are bad, we have been there many times, and we are fully awake and aware now. This is not a site for the faint of heart, we will not beat around the bush. We will call you out and either accept or reject you based on how we feel about your intentions. We are not playing games anymore, we are here to restore our country and we will not allow infiltrators to compromise our position. So, if your intentions are good, please stick around and see how things work, if your intentions are bad, Devon will make sure you don't gain any ground. I hope you will learn from this site, and contribute positive things towards what we are trying to accomplish joocean, otherwise you are wasting your time. If you want your country back joocean, stick around, and learn, and then contribute. We aren't here to play around.

The R3volution requires action, not observation!!!!
My intentions are to help focus
Ron Paul supporters on what is real. Whether it's Paul supporters fighting against chemtrails or against some alleged vast media conspiracy, or fighting against Glenn Beck who they've convinced themselves is intent on hurting the cause of liberty. Complaining and fighting against these things is a distraction. I sincerely don't think most of the conspiracies talked about on this site are real. We should be fighting against what's real, like big government and the Federal Reserve. It's non-productive to fight against things that don't exist. It just makes us ineffective, spinning our wheels. The more that people can realize just how silly most of these conspiracy theories are, and how flimsy the evidence is for them, the better it is for the cause of liberty by liberty lovers clearing their heads of all the nonsense leaving them to use their mind more fully to fight for liberty and against REAL enemies.

LOL, Glenn Beck is pro patriot act, pro taxes, and pro war. He's not hurting the cause of liberty, though :/

Uhmmm ... just let me adjust my glasses one moment...
Let me see this straight then... in focus...
You wish to fight against big government and the federal reserve, but at the same time promote one of the greatest and vocal supporters of globalism, big government, undeclared war on innocents, who is funded by globalist big government liberty stealing, rights trashing, oath breaking, wealth robbing, power seeking, would be monarchs. All of whom would destroy our constitution and Bill of Rights... if not the wealth and very lives of the people.
Now, you have come here to help DP'ers focus... either you are woefully ignorant or you are an insidious deceiver.
If the former, you have come to the right place and can be given new glasses! But if the latter, coming to DP may or may not be the right place, depending upon your thirst for debate and pain.
In either case, before you try to steer another's car, it is wise to learn to drive.
You want to focus on the Federal Reserve, but people outside
this movement will see you as a conspiracy theorist, fighting against something that doesn't exist. (a grand conspiracy of the Federal Reserve)
Glad to see you back!
I see those conspiracy theorists are still out to get you!

I don't see anything inaccurate about those statements.
It is truly unscientific polling. And straw polls are not a good forecaster a conservative leanings nationwide. Straw polls just don't work. This is Statistics 101 stuff. To try to turn this into evidence for a Fox News conspiracy is real stretch.

Sigh
While I love disagreeing with a crowd normally, this thing needs to be pointed out:
Straw polls REALLY ARE inaccurate. They're just a testing the waters gig.
What was the FOX News coverage like when Mitt Romney won last time? And the first time? Yep, was cheers and praises. It's the general emotion of the commentary that carries the baseline here. As opposed to be excited about the change in public opinion (at least for this poll) they are gloomy about the accuracy.
It's Ellsworth Toohey or The State Science Institute of Ayn Rand. Not a word of factual information except those given towards doubt.
Nice win Dr. Paul, you deserve it.

I have yet to see anything accurate about your posts either. Maybe we should start a thread about that... :)
I think, for as long as you can remain unbanned this time, that you are going to be my new barometer.
Seems my old one got banned. ~sigh~.
When I go to the DP during the day the first thing I'm going to do is go to your tracker and view the crap that you've posted.
That way I've a really good idea about what bugs a neocon that day.
You're my new pet, in other words.
Thanks!

Claims of "trolling" because you have no rational argument to rebut me. You're transparent.

Oh Hell, don't tell me this "Jocean" actually said that!
If so, it is OBVIOUS that he/she is just the same sad troll who has appeared here as "Jewish" and "Noelle" and probably a dozen other names over the last two years! Always implicitly if not explicitly defending the most vile and egregiously malicious attacks on Ron Paul and the truth itself by the corporate-controlled media. I myself got into a heated exchange with this troll, as "Jewish", over the same issues just a couple of months ago.
It would appear that the dog really does always return to its vomit.

You stay on him......follow from thread to thread...
I love it. Only a member for how many hours?? Very interesting. What was his name when he got banned the last time??
Explain to me, then,
how straw polls can be scientific?
And how can they be good at gauging opinion of the larger population, given their nature? Do you dispute what everyone learns in Statistics 101 about the cause of unreliability for straw polls?

Straw man(lol). The argument is not that they are scientific. The point is that the truth is just one of many paintbrushes to the MSM, used to create a picture of their choosing.

Mitt Romney "won" many straw polls during the presidential
campaign. He was actually the frontrunner until he was "politely asked" by the GOP to step aside for McCain.
The straw polls, it would seem, were highly accurate. That's why Mitt and Co. took this one quite seriously.
Ron Paul "Sign Wave Across the USA" -- November 5th!
Ron Paul won more straw polls
than any other Republican candidate, in the presidential race last time. If straw polls worked, he would have won at least one primary don't you think?

You're referring to post-debate, "Who do you think was the winner?" polls where the nation can vote by text message. As for official, in-person straw polls, (Iowa, etc.), I don't think RP came in first (or last) in any of them.
I believe Ron won two, possibly three primaries but
that's for another day.
