By my count, Dr Ron Paul was given 6-7 mintes of a 2 hour ABC debate tonite. The majority of time was given to Newt and Romney, even though Paul is running 2nd in most Iowa polls and a virtual tie for first in others.

The coverage of the Republican race by MSM is a joke. MSM is already making up reasons why Ron Paul can't win the nomination EVEN IF he WINS Iowa.

I doubt it Sonny. As I said in my OP, MSM is already making up reasons why if he wins Iowa(or 2nd) for him not winning.

Faux News was crucifying the good Dr after the debate.

I got so sick and tired of listening to them talk about Newt this and Newt that I had to quit watching it. Watch who they push and know that is the person who is bought and paid for. I really hope the average american isn't dumb enough to fall for their worn out shell game yet again. This election is too important to lay down and take it once again.

Well, I disagree that the MSM will give him coverage when(not if) he does well in Iowa. I hope I'm wrong but they(MSM) hasn't shown us otherwise.

BTW, I loved Romney(I believe) mentioning all the Ron Paul supporters outside in the cold Iowa nite with their signs!

Go Ron GO!!

I certainly didn't start this out believing that Ron Paul had a snowball's chance in a real warm place for making it into the primaries as a contender, but he is really surprising me. I've always agreed with the man on that proverbial 80% and thats probably about 50-60% more than I agree with any other one or have in several elections now.

Ron Paul is just becoming the little engine that could...and in our hearts, Americans LOVE the underdog when it's someone we can feel good about supporting. I wonder if Ron Paul might strategically use that underdog status in the coming primary fights?

I am definitely sick of hearing the two anointed choices of Mitt and Newt going at each other like junkyard dogs fighting over the Alpha position of the pack. I really want to hear what they are *FOR*, if ANYTHING at all. I know what they're against...but I'm not voting a negative for anyone. That IS where Ron Paul is shining. He's telling it like he sees it and despite a terrible cost to him over the years, he's remained faithful to the core principles he espouses.

As others are saying... Go Ron GO!

ABC News already took down the original poll after Ron Paul dominated it. They cleared it and started another.
Guess what? Dr Paul is winning the new one also....lmao.

Go Ron Paul indeed...I loved the closing...if you stick to it long enough the others will come your way...bravo. And I noted that both Perry and Romney picked Paul to comment on in the closing.
Here is hoping!

I've been scouring the net for pictures of the Ron Paul supporters that Romney said were outside the hall at Drake Univ tonite. If anyone kows where to find them or could podt them, I'd love to see them.

Otherwise, I guess I'll wait to see them on one of his Facebook pages tomorrow.

Well from my standpoint Dr. Paul only TOOK seven minutes because he needed no more. He could have taken many more, but I like his strategy. There was no reason for him to open up. The appointed BIG TWO took them selves down with the sitcom they provided. Dr. Paul KILLED at the end though!!

I agree mostly burning, espicially with your comments on Dr Paul's wrapup.

The other clowns killed themselves, mainly Romney with his $10,000 bet proposition.

Ron Paul highlights here.



ABC News should be offering a full replay.

Yeah I know I said 7-8 minutes in my OP and the YT vid is 13:20, but if you cut out the mod's commentary it's real close to 8 minutes.


edit on 10-12-2011 by freedom12 because: (no reason given)

If you guys are pissed about this, channel that energy towards campaigning for Ron Paul.

Phone Banking is the #1 priority of the campaign to target potential and serious voters especially in Iowa, NH and Nevada.

Donating is another great way to show the media you mean business.


gogogo!

I agree! I phone banked 2 weekends ago and actually drove about 2 1/2 hrs to Iowa to do so with a fellow RP supporter.(I live in Illinois) I've also donated 3 times to his "moneybombs" although I wish I coulda given more, but I'm not a rich guy like Romney or Newt.
