There was a lot of fertilizer mixed with the straw in this poll. Are Mitt & Ron really proud of their “showing”. Can they buy primaries? If Sarah had bought votes, the media would make her out to be a phony.

With Sarah and Newt not buying votes, the poll does illustrate who the establishment (It’s His Turn) candidate will be, Not Romney, but Newt.

Ron Paul is too old to be elected Pres.

I agree. But Rand Paul isn't.

As it gets closer we may have to organize national campaign to get out the non-Mitt vote in Iowa, NH, and SC, because Mitt’s been ‘shopping’ there for years already.

The college kiddies would go for the Neo Leftist Ron Paul
as he is anti war, has said Iran and North Korea are not a threat.
We are Imperial America and most supporters and money people are 9/11 Truthers

“Willard’s folks beat them by one.
You know Ron Paul has got to be spittin’ mad about that.”

My guess is that the college students took the money for the tickets and bought some weed hehehe.

In 2012 would you vote for a senator with little political experience who had only spent 150 days in national office before running for President?

Both camps apparently did this and on the same scale. However, considering, they only voted in the same proportion as the rest of the attendees. 50% of the paid votes went back on the deal. What does this say?

Mostly, I take it that the party people didn't vote in this at all, and deliberately kept their opinions to themselves. This left a few passionate blocks of special interest attendees to fight it out for a meaningless result.

If you got paid by Joe Isuzu to cheat for him, how obligated would you feel?

Since this was a straw poll, it means exactly nothing

Meaningless, since both Mitt and Paul bought large blocs of tickets and then bussed in their operatives to skew the results.

BTW, how big of an ovation did they get in comparison with Sarah yesterday?

Oh wait...

Sarah is in the hunt.

With no organized effort to buy votes, which I appreciate.

I'm beginning to think this may come down to Palin (if she runs) and whatever Newt decides to do. Keep your eye on him. He went out of his way to praise Palin today but I know he's thinking hard about running himself.

Team Bush has a problem. Their surrogate Romney's boat is leaking from Romneycare. They may have to come up with another candidate and they're running out of time.

Ron Paul is just our collective crazy uncle.
