Who does best against Obama? Paul. The congressman from Texas, who also ran as a libertarian candidate for president in 1988 and who is well liked by many in the tea party movement, trails the president by only seven points (52 to 45 percent) in a hypothetical general election showdown. Huckabee trails by eight points, with Romney down 11 points to Obama.

Rush Limbaugh PREDICTED (accurately) yesterday that CNN and the media would PICK Paul as the stongest becuase they know he is kook and would be the easiest to destroy and assure Obama a win...Ron Paul is a KOOK.
This repeated post of yours has already been debunked on another thread. You need some new material.
Did Lincoln actually run as many times as Ron Paul? Half as many times?
Ron Paul doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell. Libertarian candidates are NOT conservative and are NOT electable.
I agree!
Mike
I can see why you would not want me to continue posting his history, though. Snicker...
And Paul's foreign policy is "close your eyes and go lalalalala" and they bad guys will go away.
Ron Paul is certifiable and I have a better chance of beating obama than he does.
I know there are libertarians that like Paul, but he will continue to win his congress critter seat and run for President and has ZERO chance of winning.
I partly disagree. Libertarians ARE electable, just not THIS libertarian.
So the MSM wants Ron Paul...Didn’t they help McCain get the nomination too?
born August 20, 1935 in Pittsburgh, PA (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)
Parents were
Howard Casper Paul born August 19, 1904 in Pittsburgh, PA.
Margaret Dumont born March 7, 1908 in PA.
Both parents were US Citizens at the time of his birth (Meets the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)
Ron Paul is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
Yawn. Ron Paul, Sarah Palin, [insert RNC establishment candidate] = We get four more years of Zero.
Another case of the MSM trying to foist a candidate on the GOP who just simply cannot win. I have nothing against Ron Paul but he is as unelectable as John McCain was. This is simply a case of CNN trying to make certain that Obama gets another “cakewalk” throughout the election. The real problem is that the GOP has proven time and again that they are dumb enough to fall for media spin. During the last election the MSM spin was that the GOP had to find a “moderate” in order for the candidate to be electable. Now, with the Tea Party having disproved that theory, the MSM is going to try to con the GOP into putting a fringe candidate on the ballot. The only people aside from the Dems who actually believe the MSM spin are the idiots who head up the GOP. (Rove would be a prime example.)
I have never supported nor voted for Paul. Might do it this time.
I like Herman Cain very much. He articulated his vision of prosperity for our country clearly last night. Quite frankly, him NOT having experience in government but rather in business is a bonus in these days of “spending cuts” that aren’t actually spending cuts and other such nonsense.
I've heard the man talk, I know what a nutjob he is. I'm just saddened that his brain-dead supporters think he is our best chance (or any chance for that matter) of defeating Obama.
This is the beginning of the dems rigging the primaries in open election states just like in 2008.
