He is too scary for me. especially on forign policy.
To soon to tell...there is plenty of time for candidates to step on it, as in Rubio.
Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Rick Perry. Any one of them OK with me.
Free advice; libertarianism stops at the border. By disposition we want to leave all alone the evil world. It’s in their best interest to keep it that way.
His father won straw polls too. But that was the extent of his wins.
I’d rather he spent at least one term as Governor of Kentucky. Let’s see how he would run a state before we give him a chance to run the whole country.
The poll, which is not a scientific sample by any stretch of the imagination, was dominated by the 18-25 year old age group, which represented 46% of the polling sample.The next closest age group was the 26-40 year olds, who made up just 18% of the vote.
Sounds a bit like the usual Paulista tactic of swamping the place with bussed-in bodies.
Rand Paul is winning straw polls the same way his father did. It may just mean the Ron Paul cult is behind him.
Rand Paul is an open-borders pro-amnesty libertarian.
That’s all I need to know. Next candidate, please!
He won the last CPAC straw poll. The CPAC straw poll, as pretty much every other single straw poll, is about as meaningless as anything can possibly be. Right along with that silliness are online polls. Meaningless.
Polling is both art and science. It isn’t just pulling a bunch of people together and asking them questions.
Ouch! That's gonna leave a mark!...............
It must be the hairpiece. Or using lyrics from anti-semites to illustrate his positions.
I think Scott Walker has the best chance and the proven record not to cave to political pressure. That man took a beating by the press and unions but he kept to his guns. And most importantly he has proven he can get a conservative agenda passed in a democrat leaning state.
Put him at the top of the ticket and the rats will be going nuts—watch the lunatics come out and that will drive more to our party. Because Scott Walker has not been successfully painted as a hate monger, racist, idiot, unelectable or any of those things the left tries to do to us, but my oh my have they tried.
please. with all the media hoopla, this race is hillary’s to lose. and we best not forget it or WE will be the losers again
Big whoop!
Rand Paul wins the RINO-PAC straw poll.
Color me surprised.
Runt Paul is a moron Liberaltarian.
If he came out against pot legalization and queer marriage his support would drop to zero.
Any of the young mush heads that would vote for him, would vote for Karl Marx if offered a big sack of dope to smoke with their queer boyfriend!
His thinking would gain zero votes for the GOP.
You certainly won’t be able to objectively ascertain if Rand Paul is winning by a CPAC poll. They are notoriously and regularly spammed by Ron/Rand Paul PaulBots.
Each and every year CPAC is held, it’s the same old trick, try and pretend one of the Pauls is the front-runner by giving Ron/Rand Paul supporting college students tickets to CPAC and stack the deck.
They do this with online polls as well.
Given this behavior, I’d say that Ted Cruz was probably comfortably out in front.
