oh boy, did you not see the part where I put the percentage points on the very first line of my OP and typed 38% in bold????
Yes he did receive 34% and it was a mix of likely independent and democratic voters.
Look in the link, like I asked in the OP for the information on independents where he SOLEY received 38% of the support.
Do you seriously not understand and have not clearly read the OP and the detailed information in the link?
I think this is the main reason why some people dislike Ron Paul so much, the lack of complete research and understanding before forming a judgement. Fallenwun, you are a victim of your own ignorance but its ok, I welcome you with open arms to learn and grow together.edit on 24-11-2011 by eLPresidente because: (no reason given)

CAVUTO: Well, they do come out to vote. That is for sure. Congressman, looking at the folks who you were up on that stage with last night, could you support any one of them as the nominee? PAUL: I would have trouble with what I heard last night because it is almost opposite of the defense of liberty that I'm talking about.
A recent Bloomberg News poll showed him in close second place in Iowa, behind Herman Cain and narrowly ahead of former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich. The same poll showed more Iowa caucus-goers had been contacted by the Paul campaign than any of the other six GOP campaigns actively competing for the Jan. 3 caucuses.
Political observers have suggested Paul could win in Iowa as a result of socially conservative voters being split between several candidates.
