Gingrich is weaker than the news would have us believe.

Submitted by alaney on Tue, 12/06/2011 - 10:09.

Even Cain tops the Newt. Cain's support is still a real big wild card. Let's hope Dr. Paul gets his share. With 4 weeks to go, there is plenty of time to remind Iowa of just who and what Newt is, and was. I have a hard time with GOPers that think this clown is the answer to America's problems. Just shows me how misguided the masses have become.

This will be the benchmark to which all campaigns aspire.

WHY?

Because RON PAUL is a true leader. Now you know what one looks like.

quote from someone who was at the event:
"Matt started to leave the stage tonight without announcing the winner of the straw poll, but someone shouted STRAW POLL so he pulled the results out of his pocket and read them off. I thought it was Capt. Smith who shouted, but he says not. I didn't realize how many Ron Paul people were in the crowd until the winner was announced and people all over the room started yelling and cheering.

Also, there was a wonderful lady there with 2 little girls and they all passed out the super brochure after the event (until the guys in suits told them they couldn't)."

There you go. I couldn't afford to go.

People are gettin the message. Tis the kind of news that can jump starts anybodys day! I guess many people watch the previous debate. Many pundit says NEWT got Ron Paul on the previous debate but the polls are not tellin the same story.

I voted!

Submitted by 4Paul on Mon, 12/05/2011 - 23:14.

I voted for Dr. Paul, and both supported Dr. Paul and was heavily involved in the Republican party in Oklahoma in 2008. There is absolutely NO way this would have happened in '08. We would have felt like we were doing great if we could reach 10% support within the party then. The tide may be turning.

Big bump
