lol! RuPaul may win polls but he will never win the one that counts — the one on election day.

It’s all cross-registered democrats. They are organizing on the net to do this.

Ron Paul will never be President...
TOO OLD...Brain shrunk...walks with a shuffle... and the job is just too important...
Time for him to rest, smell the flowers, and plan for the end. Aging effect us all...
To: Colonel Kangaroo

Ron Paul will not be a factor in the Republican primaries, will never win the GOP nomination and will never be President of the United States. Everyone already knows this aside from his cult like supporters.

That is what I thought about John S. McCain during last election since there was no doubt he was the weakest candidate and guaranteed to lose.

You want more hilarity? I just asked a Hollywood Republican a couple of minutes ago and they have never even heard of this straw poll. Hell, I have never heard of this straw poll.

Ron Paul can’t even figure out that he is being used/played by the media along with manufactured groups of left wingers. He cannot win the general election. He has some good ideas when he does not visit into crazy land.
To: Darkwolf377
He finished 373 votes ahead of Fred Karger.
To: Colonel Kangaroo
Straw polls are worth the paper they are written on AND Paul pays people to show up and vote for him.
Paul needs to go away.

Raucous cheers and whistles and whoops and screams -- one could be forgiven for wondering.... ...if they were for an elderly 11-term House politician or Justin Bieber -- announced Paul's presence outside the doors. He then entered to another round of cheers and camera flashes.LOL - the Paulbots really are a strange lot.

Everyone already knows this aside from his cult like supporters.True, but the way they swarm and spam polls and then wet their pants when they win them, excitedly telling us that this means something and how shocked we're all going to be when L. Ron wins the nomination and then the White House is always good for entertainment value. :-)

Wow. This is meaninful. After these results, Ron Paul is a shoe in for the Presidency. This is a very important straw poll. It elected Eisenhower, Stassen, Nixon, Ford, Anderson, Reagan, Paulson, Bush, Trebek, Bush, McCain. Very accurate. Thanks for the heads up here dude.

That is what I thought about John S. McCain during last election since there was no doubt he was the weakest candidate and guaranteed to lose.The difference is, McCain did not advocate a loopy, insanely dangerous foreign and defense policy that would completely alienate 75% of Republican primary voters. Paul has so many twisted, bizarre positions that many/most Republicans could not even vote for him in a primary or general election.
