CNN Poll: Ron Paul strongest vs. Obama
CNN ^

Posted on 05/06/2011 4:52:24 AM PDT by quesney

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.

Add pro-abortion and voted to repeal DADT.

All this shows is that CNN and the rest of the MSM/left really really really want to run against Paul in 2012 because they know he’d be very easy to beat.

Yup. CNN is the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party, so of course they're trying to stick us with a candidate that can't win. Next up, a poll showing Romney or Huckabee bating Obama?

The “opponent du jour” DNC Talking Points are out....whoever they KNOW can’t win is the Candidate from the Republican side that they promote 24/7, to assure a Democrat has no legitimate FEARED Candidate in 2012.

I simply don’t believe this. Whether their polling was faulty or the RP people love-bombed it, I don’t know. But this does not reflect reality.

Spare us you sadly obvious Lefties posing as Paulites .
CNN is getting real desperate NOW.

The Clintonites operates who own the polling firm think the GOP is that stupid to believe their polls and follow this nutter to defeat.

The pro Heroin, anti Semite ,blame America for 9-11 nutter, who peddles phony frugal BS while ramming thru huge earmarks for his pals is a disaster.

I love the way the far left have used this old fool ton get access to GOP events and cause chaos.

I partly disagree. Libertarians ARE electable, just not THIS libertarian.

Electable...really? History and reality disagree.

No, but I had run across “the Margaret Dumont” when I was doing the research.

“CNN Poll: Ron Paul strongest vs. Obama”

Apparently the folks at CNN believe Ron Paul would be the easiest opponent for the “messiah”.

Here's a news flash for you, Chief. I don't give a rat's ass what you find 'boring and immature'. I'll continue posting Paul's record of lunacy in every thread where his crazed supporters are pushing his horse squeeze. If that doesn't suit you, good.

So good luck peddling your boy's lunacy. Look around you; conservatives ain't buying.

Have a nice day.

#1. So who do you think CNN would like to see win if it’s Obama v. Paul.
You’re exactly right!

#2. And who would win in an Obama v. Paul race?
That’s two out of two correct responses.

#3. Now, that being the case, do you think CNN would advance a doctored poll to show Paul leading? Correct...You’re doing great at this!

#4 Who did CNN indicate was the leading candidate among the Republicans in 2008?
You now have scored 100% in the Presidential Quiz.

If Paultards were smart enough to figure that out on their own, they wouldn’t be Paultards any longer.

“Did Lincoln actually run as many times as Ron Paul? Half as many times?”

Lincoln was a Republican who ran as a Republican. He did not pretend to be something he is NOT. Paul is a Libertarian, and should be running as one and not muddying up the waters and wasting valuable debate time with his anti Republican platform views.

LOL! What a joke. Paul-bots no different from the Romney-bots.

When will you guys actually take a look at your party and see what dynamics history has told us wins elections.

Pro-life, Pro-gun, Pro-defence including defending the borders, pro-marriage, pro-Israel,anti-tax and spend. If you actually want to win then please your base first...if you want dems to win...keep up the stupidity it is not like we can not look at history and see what actually wins...even the rinos who have won in the past had to pretend and campaign as a conservative....the problem with that is the base has been fooled enough.
