Pit maverick Republican Congressman Ron Paul against President Obama in a hypothetical 2012 election match-up, and the race is virtually dead even.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of likely voters finds Obama with 42% support and Paul with 41% of the vote. Eleven percent (11%) prefer some other candidate, and six percent (6%) are undecided.
Ron Paul will never get the nod.
He is a lunatic.
..and then come back!
And gave us.. Bill Clinton.
If Ron Paul is the best we can do, we’re in worse shape than I thought.
Two words: Foreign Policy.
I think this may be damning with faint praise, but kook Perot isn't nearly as crazy as Ron..........
:-)
And there you go again. Every day the so called Kooks are proven more and more right on. You will not figure it out til you are run over by the Train.
Liar, Double liar.
Don't try that weak crap here.
I know you feel strongly but your post has no support for what you are saying. I think you are overblowing these things and suspect you are repeating smears, not knowingly, but just repeating it.
Don’t think so.
**No one ever posts facts as to what it is that makes them so dismissive towards Paul.**
1. Ending the Federal Reserve would put the Money supply in the hands of this CONGRESS... cant trust them with Postage Stamps.
2. His National Defense Policy is SUICIDE. We cannot fight unless we are directly attacked...
3. this ILLEGAL WAR BULL****
4. Sides with CODE PINK anti war CRAP
5. We DESERVED 9/11
Any one of those is MORE than enough reason to brand him a KOOK. or a PSYCHO LUNATIC.
Ron Paul is not liked by the majority on this site.. Im sure others will give you plenty more reasons for his KOOKDOM@!!

Looks like you answer my questions. Thanks
That's why I wish all the states would to to closed primaries. ONLY registered Republicans voting so that Dems can't cross over and screw things up.
We can't let the Dems nominate our candidates this time. They would dearly love to see our side run someody like (ugh!) Romney or the moonbat Paul.
That way, even if they lost, they'd win.
We really need to run true conservatives this time around.
LOL, sharkey.. you’re one evil dude.
You know that?
];-)
Perot was a rational, thoughtful man compared to the kook Paul.
I think Republicans should not just laugh this off. During the whole economic collapse with the out of control spending and broken state budgets and irresponsible growth of big government under both parties a new appreciation for founding principles and basic libertarian conservatism. This doesn’t mean that most people would go along with Paul’s protectionism and blame America first attitude but they do go along with his ideas on the role of government and limited government and the truth is he stands fairly alone as the one stalwart who actually fearlessly talks about the need to cut spending and cut government programs. Republicans are still slow on the uptake. It isn’t just people want lower taxes, people are willing in poll after poll to accept and even desire less government. I know their is an entitlement class but the truth is the majority of people are ready and waiting for America to be restored. Those that dismiss Ron Paul as a nut do so to their own detriment. Paul offers something that America wants and the reason he does so well against Obama is because he is a clear contrast and the closest thing to a polar opposite as you can get. The only thing that has held Paul back is his stance on national security otherwise he offers a clear path to restoration of liberty in this nation. I wish more Republicans really believed even a tenth of what they say about smaller government. Paul clearly does and though I don’t think he will win the nomination he will continue to be a force and has did a lot to bring a new crop of young people into the party. That his ideas of liberty appeal to the young should be noted. Sarah Palin appeals in much the same way. The future will be shaped by those who boldly and without hesitation lift up their cause and cast it into a populist army be it the cause of liberty or the cause of tyranny in the guise of entitlements, taxes, and political correctness is the choice but the wavering unconvincing second guessing voices will not win the day.
Why? I’d take Ron Paul over the marxist Obama. Wouldn’t you?
Beware the fin......
**..and then come back!
And gave us.. Bill Clinton.**
Perot has since had the sense to GO AWAY.
L RON PAUL ... has yet to show such sense.
side with CODE PINK .. EFF HIM AND ALL HIS KOOK Followers.

Not so bad.

Perot/Paul-2012
LOL, okay, that clarifies it.
