WSJ poll: Can Ron Paul win the GOP presidential nomination? (86.7% yes, 13.3% no)

The Texas congressman announced on "Good Morning America" that he is launching an official campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. As the founding father of a libertarian movement that paved the way for the tea party, Mr. Paul thinks his odds have improved since his last campaign in 2008. He said people are finally “agreeing with much of what I’ve been saying for 30 years. The time is right.”

What do you think? Could Ron Paul be the nominee?

[Mr. Mojo]

This is the guy who said he would not have ordered the hit on OBL?

Not only that, but that killing him "violated international law."

Notice how RP only plays the "international law" card when either condemning Israel or protecting Mohammedan terrorists? Otherwise he couldn't give a rip about it. Quite revealing.

You know, this does 'prove' one thing ... the LRon flying monkeys really know how to use a computer!

Legalize drugs. Apologize to terrorists. Homosexualize the military. End the Fed. Pass the bong.

Post of the week. Well done.

If the idiot Paul runs, Zero will beat Ronald Reagan's electoral vote record and win all 50 states (yes, including Texas) in an unprecedented electoral landslide.

[bigbob]

maybe they should repeat the poll with people who are actually awake

[BuckeyeTexan]

Ah, HELL no! Ain’t no way Obama wins Texas.

[Servant of the Cross]

I didn't see "Hell No" as an option on the poll.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

How can anybody trust libertarians when their favorite
“son” loads up legislation that he knows will pass and
gives the pork while giggling “I voted against it.”?

Legalize drugs. Apologize to terrorists. Homosexualize the military. End the Fed. Pass the bong.

One for five. Not a good score.

[Servant of the Cross]

You don't count so good.

In the space of 24 hours, Rep. Ron Paul (R., Texas) has voted for tax hikes, against censure for Charlie Rangel, and defended Julian Assange.

Without a strong defense there is no point in having an economic policy.

[Servant of the Cross]

Yo gunner. Did you vote in this poll yet?

[Captain Kirk]

If you want a “strong defense,” you will oppose world policing. The two are completely at odds. The wise founders, who hated entangling alliances and empire, understood this. Some modern conservatives who think that we afford to police the world till kingdom come would do well to study their insights.

[Dante3]

I agree.

[bgill]

Heaven help us if he does. Remember, the GOP gave us McObummerkisser last time.

[svcw]

You're assuming that our troops on the ground overseas is not in our national security. I think in many cases it is a naive assumption.

[Proud2BeRight]

Thanks. That “Aw Jeez” picture just seems to fit this perfectly.
