Rand Paul, son of Texas Rep. Ron Paul and a favorite of the Tea Party movement, has built a big lead over Secretary of State Trey Grayson in the race for the GOP Senate nomination in Kentucky, according to a SurveyUSA poll conducted April 9-11.
The race has been depicted as a test of the movement's influence, pitting a candidate trying to capitalize on the voter anger it reflects against an establishment Republican who has won re-election to his position three times. Grayson has fought back with TV ads honing in on Paul's "strange ideas," such as saying "Paul even wonders whether 9/11 was our fault."
Paul is ahead of Grayson by 45 percent to 30 percent with 6 percent for three other candidates and 19 percent undecided.
Conservatives favor Paul by 51 percent to 29 percent with 16 percent undecided. Those who attend religious services regularly or occasionally favor Paul by double-digit margins. Gun owners back Paul 48 percent to 22 percent with 22 percent undecided. There is an income gap between Paul and Grayson supporters: Paul leads among Kentuckians earning less than $50,000 a year by 49 percent to 22 percent with 21 percent undecided, but his margin is much smaller (42 percent to 38 percent) among those earning over $50,000.

Must suck that people aren’t falling for that smear any longer.
If you have a problem with one of my posts, tell me which one.
Yep, "exposed." A video made and posted for all to see by Paul's own campaign back in June 2009. The polls really show Kentucky cares so much, huh?
You right.You don’t have a clue about Dr. Paul.
You lied again, the very first page shows it, and this is after she has learned to try and tone it down.
Yeah, I’m far more concerned with Grayson’s associations with Bill Clinton, Van Jones, George Soros and bailed-out AIG. No-doubt that’s one reason Grayson’s campaign likes to stay away from the “guilt by association” garbage; because they’re swimming in.
LOL you nailed me!
The boys over at Stormfront are for Rand Paul in a big way.
Must suck to have the truth known when you'd rather sweep it under the rug. LOL.
Must suck for you that Rand Paul is going to beat establishment McConnell-lapdog Grayson, huh?
And there you have it.
We are going to regret a Senator Rand Paul. Big time.
You have all of this righteous anger, but you don’t seem to really object to Stormfront itself or to be annoyed that your movement is being taken over by Stormfront.
Yeah, that's what's going on here.
RonPaul Republicanism, representing about 10-12% of the entire GOP and millions of Republican votes in the 2008 Primary election cycle, is being taken over by 8 pimply dudes with bad teeth wearing KKK sheets and playing RaHoWa records in their parents' basement.
You know, the closer Rand Paul rides to victory, the more hysterical becomes the bleating of his opponents.
On May 18, when Rand Paul crushes Trey Grayson in literally every single GOP demographic (except for Trey Grayson's loyal base of Pro-Abortion Republicans), I fully expect to see some folks heads explode.
Actually, about 800, with tickets bought by the Paul movement.
Now why (oh, why) would they be so attracted to Ron/Rand Paul?
BTW, you’re awfully active for such a newbie.
With the Axelrod-friendly nick and everything.
That is one of the most clueless posts that I have ever seen here, I’m not angry, I guess you missed post 52, I think that Ron Paul is a disgusting worm, and what movement are you talking about?
If that “movement” is libertarianism then you may want to look at this thread, just like stormfront, libertarians do not like me much.

I can look at post 64 and see that you are supporting the liberal for the United States Senate. Have seen the facts of this Senate race that I showed you in post 64?
Maybe because Rand Paul wants to militarize the Southern Border?
But hey, I'm in favor of that, too. And I'm no racist; just opposed to illegal immigration.
If you're referring to David Axelrod, I'm unaware of any connection on his part to either Christianity or Capitalism.
Must suck for you and your loved ones to have such a penchant for jumping the gun, huh?
All of the posts where you refuse to explain why your man is backing the second coming of John Kerry, the America-hating 9/11 truther Adam Kokesh. You’re okay with that? Unaware? What?
I think Rand Paul is a very good liar who is able to tell people what they want to hear.
If he had ever held public office, then maybe we might have a record to go on. But, of course, he gets to skate by on rhetoric. Just like a certain president we know.
Post 52 says nothing about Stormfront not liking you. All it proves is that you lurk there. No doubt for research.
You assert that Grayson is a liberal, but he got the Right to Life endorsement and an endorsement by Cheney.
Now I know Ron blame-America-first Paul is The Only Man Who Can Save America, but surely there might be others who can pick up the slack, say when the Pauls are asleep.
Ah, but they never sleep. They are on the lookout for opponents of liberty all day and night.
