Remember PaulBots are NATORIOUS “Ballot-Box-Stuffers”!
Not one vote has been cast. Maybe folks should worry about supporting a strong conservative candidate rather than bandwagoning behind whoever is winning this weeks popularity contest.
Then, when an actual nominee seems to be emerging we can decide who to rally behind.
The Democrats love Paul. He is more like them than a conservative!!!
Note: This is the result of weekend polling.
Could this be why Paul is rising in the polls? On air in Iowa.

The IA race is now hand to hand. If you want Newt to win then you all better get you butts off of the net and go to IA...
I have been saying for some time that Ron Paul has an excellent chance of winning in Iowa. It will be his first and last win, it will hurt Newt some but the worst effect will be to encourage this tired old man to run as a third party candidate. He certainly has the ability to pull 5% or more of the GOP vote to himself. That is likely to be the difference between an Obama defeat and an Obama victory.
How many would stay home if Paul got the Nomination? Paul is who he is...not a Conservative but he’s not a Big Gov’t Progressive either. So if it was between Ron Paul or Mitt Romney or having 4 more years of Barry......
Perhaps...but voting for 9/11 truth, Code Pink aligned candidates doesn't make a great deal of sense either.
This is what happens when people treat Paul as the “lovable oaf” on the debate stage and don’t give him any serious criticism.
“I will choose Ron Paul over filpfopping-pseudo conservatives Newt and Mitch.”
Started drinking a bit early today eh?
That’s not a response to what I said.
Even Paul is better than the creep we now have as President. If he gained the nomination, I’d vote for him because he couldn’t do any worse.
Of course not, but he's no libertarian, either.

I still think Newt will pull it out.
In the IA caucuses it’s not just a matter of going to the polls and casting your vote. You have to devote the evening to the caucus. Reps for the various candidates speak, folks in the caucus speak and/or ask questions before any voting. Fascinating, but it does pretty much take up the voters’ entire evening.
And, IIRC, the caucuses are ‘open’ which presents another challenge with idle Dems thinking they might impact the GOP caucuses results. That’s less likely to happen in smaller towns where they have to live with their neighbors who know their politics.
