Ron Paul Wins Debate but Republicans Won't Gamble on Him

Ron Paul clearly won the Republican presidential debate last night held in New Hampshire. Viewers were asked to text in their thoughts on who won the debate, Ron Paul received 34%, Giuliani 17%, all others lower. Fred Thompson who did not appear at the debate was clearly the largest loser as his pro-war stance and republican hard line talking points seem to be not what the people are looking for.

Sean Hannity, Fox News pundit, was clearly upset with the results and deliberately ridiculed Congressman Ron Paul. Although outpacing all other candidates by a 2-1 margin, it was clear that Chris Wallace and Brit Hume had tones of sarcasm when talking of Ron Paul. Giving absolutely no credence to Cong. Paul's responses, they even cut off his answer in a heated exchange between Paul and Huckabee, then declaring that Huckabee won the debate on that point.

Ron Paul demonstrated last night that he is the only Republican candidate that gives any thought to issues and his answers, all others gave stock replies and mostly followed the party line.

he did not win and he is NO REPUBLICAN!

He is a Republican. Whether other Republicans like it or not.

And he did win by the metric established by Fox News themselves and reported (angrily) by them: a lame texting poll.

Write them a letter.

Get real! Paul is done...stick a fork in him and chuck him off the stage. He is just nutty as a fruitcake.

Most of the Ron Paulson activists are Dems just like yourself. Who do you think your kidding. Go back to your little DNC office and find another bored to stir. Say hi to HilaryCare for us all.

Pray for W and Our Troops

I don’t mind Fox making money off the poll. That doesn’t alter the poll, although your point about youth being the largest group of texters may have merit.

It’s been my opinion that Paul did have moments of brilliance, and I’ve been saying so. Pointing out that Saudi Arabia is a problem is a good thing to do. Saudi Arabia should be on notice that we know what is going on and don’t appreciate it.

Har har har.....what a crock.

In a most unpresidential manner the man flew off the handle.....completely lost his cool. He showed himself to be the flake he actually is.

One more thing, I lost respect for Hannity for his behavior, he clearly is trying to direct everybody towards his candidate, Rudy, who of course came out first.

Finally, sadly, FoxNews is now just the CNN of the right, we're going to need a new network ....

"He is a Republican. Whether other Republicans like it or not."

Paul's haters are sure in a panic over his 1%. They don't realize it but they should be refuting the 70% of voters who agree that our troops should not die for nation building or picking the wrong side in a thousand year civil war.

You're probably right. But that also says that the other candidates don't have very enthusiastic supporters.

If your measure of enthusiasm is how many times you are willing to text, you don't have much of a standard.

“Stabilizing it how?”

By showing them that the only way to live without an endless civil war, is to learn to deal with their differences peacefully. Like we do in America, and like every civilized nation currently does.

We’re making progress.

Surrendering will only make our position much, much more dangerous, and will make Iraq a living hell-hole.

We win, or we lose. Losing is not an option that you’ll be happy with, no matter what illusions you currently operate under.
