All of a sudden straw polls mean something now, since Paul didn’t win it. Remember when Paul came in a strong 5th in Iowa and swept the NH, AL, and WA polls? Those didn’t count, remember?

“the” WA poll?

I know of at least one WA poll that was a landslide for Fred Thompson.

"The results are totally wrong," said Jason Scarbrough, a Paul supporter who lives near Houston. "There were 10 times as many Ron Paul supporters here than anyone else had. There's just no way.

I'm not disappointed at all. Let's consider who was allowed to vote. Specifically the Republican establishment and no one else. This was not a primary open to the general Republican voters. And Rep. Paul still came in third? Behind a protectionist who no one's heard of and a candidate who hasn't officially announced? Hunter is going to spend all his money too early and Fred's not getting the support he was expected to get. Rep. Paul did quite well and another top three placement

Of course the media will try to spin it anyway they can but I am not disheartened at all.
