(FReeper thread from earlier today: Ron Paul Will Win Debate But Be Discredited)
[FOX News just declaired Ron Paul the winner in tonights debate....but Ron Paul's win has been discredited by Hannity]
Now to the article......:
Washington D.C.:
An analyst at USAElectionPolls.com has recently published the frequency the top news sources mention each of the Republican candidates. As expected, the top tiered candidates were mentioned most often but by how much varied.
Their analysis found that the New York Times, USA Today, and CBS News were the fairest of all the news sources analyzed. The biggest "culprit" according to the web site was Fox News -- mentioning the Top 3 candidates almost five times as frequent as all the other candidates combined.
There were 13,000 references to Mitt Romney, 6,570 references to Rudy Giuliani, and 4,060 references to John McCain on the Fox News domain according to the Google searches that USAElectionPolls.com performed. Ron Paul was referenced the least of all candidates - 248 times.
The results suggest that Fox News mentions Mitt Romney in articles more than 50 times as frequent as they do Ron Paul. USAElectionPolls.com calls it "absurd" and continues on to say that in "no other news source is the disparity as large as it is on Fox News".

Well we decided to look into this. So what we did was a raw Google search of how many times each of the Republican candidates have been mentioned on some of the popular news media.
They've got some serious methodology there.............................lol
As I said when I read this before, give em hell Jim
It’s like having Pat Buchanan’s older, smaller brother in the campaign... after downing a couple Red Bulls.
“declaired”?
I was thinking it was like PeeWee Herman in an expensive suit.
Our a two-legged hemorrhoid, screaming for attention...
It’s like Cindy Sheehan and Pat Buchanan’s demon love child.

You don’t count Dennis Kucinich in the comic relief category on the left ? ;-)
Now there's a sentence you'll see about once in your lifetime.
You disagree with his stance on the Iraq War and nature of his opposition to the Federal Reserve.
I agree he often states conservative positions. However, I cannot accept the rationalization behind his earmarks. Tom Coburn has shown that position to be untenable for a principled conservative.
And Paul's opposition to the Iraq War is a deal-breaker. I will freely admit to being a single-issue voter in one regard - being opposed to the Iraq War is my single issue, above all others.

I stand corrected. The Justice League is blessed. The SuperFriends are doubly blessed.
I never figured you to be against the Iraq war. ?
Paul is the Republican equivalent of Howard Dean. Look how much he bragged on what he raised on the ‘net.
Who’s Ron Paul?
Seems like the ‘strong defense’ he supports is on our soil. I prefer to fight them on their soil.
