In other words, 93% of tea party members wisely reject this anti semitic loser as a presidential candidate.

In fact, Tea Party Fort Lauderdale, Americas longest running tea party, recently held a straw poll for its members asking for our choice of candidate as POTUS, and also the man or woman we thought would make the worst president. And unlike the usual straw polls that the delusional paulbots spam up, this poll was only open to actual group members.
And our straw poll numbers validated the Gallup poll numbers. Ron Paul finished with Jon Huntsman as THE ONLY TWO PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES to pull in less than 5% support from our group. However, the left wing cancer that Paul spreads was not appreciated by our conservative members as career politican Paul overwhelmingly won as the candidate we least wanted to see as president, winning that dubious honor by a huge margin over our second place loser(Huntsman).

These numbers also fall in line with Wrong Pauls performance in the last presidential elections. As I recall, he won a bunch of straw and internet polls. And his delusional paulbot followers claimed this represented reality. Of course, us sane people knew that he had no real life political support. And that was proven in the 2008 when the nutjob only got 5% of the primary vote. That means 19 OUT OF 20 REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTERS REJECTED HIM AS A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE LAST ELECTION!!!
And of course his followers are the dirtbags of society. Conspiracy loons, anti war leftists, and anti semites. That is why the Republican Jewish Coalition banned him and his paulbots from the presidential debate they moderated. And that is why most sites, including this one, have policies banning paulbots. I say they are a cancer to the conservative movement and we should treat them like lepers and shun them.
But...but...but... the Paul cult claim that their nutcase candidate is Tea Party. LOL
Patriotic Tea Party people don’t agree with bizarre comments like:
“Just think of what happened after 9/11. Immediately before there was any assessment there was glee in the administration because now we can invade Iraq,” Ron Paul Dec 8, 2011
The traitor paul blamed America for 9-11-01 even obama hasnt done that Yet, thats shows how despicable paul is.
That being said he does make for some funny threads
“What is overlooked is he doubled down on that statement in the same speech...”
Thanks, I had not seen that. Maybe he has Alex Jones as a top advisor. Beware of the Illuminati and chemtrails.
Mitt’s superb “ground game” will easily make up his 30% deficit.
/ RINO
I have two words for you: John McCain
I guess I'm still skeptical of who Gingrich truly is and will remain undecided (on him) until he puts my suspicions to rest. Perhaps if I weren't a Tea Party supporter I would fall in line with the plurality.
My biggest fear is that should Gingrich win the nomination, he will run to the left and antagonize Conservatives. Should that happen, much like John McCain, we could be looking at four more years (at least) of Obama.
Lol second place for Romney with 17%.
How can they support candidates who were for the bailout, and individual mandates is beyond me.
How can they trust the first speaker punished for house ethic violations and who cheated his first 2 wives.
Then he should be now. He has the perfect job now to do that, Chairman of the House Monetary Policy Committee. When the Republicans took the house, there was cheering from the Paul fan camp that he would get that job saying, see, he will be the Fed's nightmare and prove he isn't just talk. Guess what he has done? Jack and Squat. In his committee chair role, he has one of the most powerful positions to do something. He can issue subpoenas, call witnesses, start investigations, and more. Instead, he hasn't done anything. He called for one hearing in which, instead of making an impact, he called two people up who had nothing to do with it, one guy who wrote a book on Lincoln and succession and a blogger. He ended up canceling the meeting prior. He has skipped another meeting to attend a pro-pot rally.
Basically, Ron Paul has had the perfect opportunity to show real leadership on this issue over the past year and he has failed. He has shown he is like most other old career politicians, he has a pet issue he likes to talk about and raise money on but when it comes to actually fixing it, he is unwilling lest the issue be taken away from him raising more money off it.
Here you go... here is the most Paul has accomplished as head of the committee that has oversight over the Fed.
If that doesn’t prove that Paul is a fraud on economic issues, nothing else will.

As someone who has been to Ft. Lauderdale Tea Party events,(I live about 20 minutes away from Ft. Lauderdale) I can back this claim up. Not once did I see a Ron Paul sign. Not once.
PS-—Most folks who live in the Ft. Lauderdale/Miami area think the Herald isn’t fit to wrap fish in.
Ummmmm.......
Please disregard this line from my last post:
“PS-Most folks who live in the Ft. Lauderdale/Miami area think the Herald isnt fit to wrap fish in.”
While the Miami Herald IS a liberal rag that is worthy of only scorn and mockery, this comment has nothing to do with this thread.
*sigh*
Stupid stroke.....
