This along with all those delegates being added, this upset turn the media around.
If there is anything I learned about the US over the last 27 years is that America LOVES and underdog!

Where did that come from?

Seriously... he doesn't need to stoop to VP. He can win this and appoint his own much better VP!

Where are the anti-Paul folks?

Here's a Fact and a Source!

Thank You!

Not to rain on your parade but that poll has a +3/-3% error margin. The article was also paid for by Dr. Paul's campaign. I'm just putting that out there now before the anti-Paul guys put it to you less gently.

Still, polls like that should have some sway on Republican voters. One can hope, anyway.

Rasmussen has above average accuracy for polling.

Instead of reading the 3rd hand story which is obviously biased having quotes from Ron Pauls campaign yes man, go staight to Rasmussen site.

Rasmussen site

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows Mitt Romney earning 48% of the vote while President Obama picks up support from 46%. Three percent (3%) would vote for a third party candidate, while another three percent (3%) are undecided.

No mention of Ron Paul, unless you look at that tiny insigificant 3% for third party, because that is all he would have left when Romney takes the nomination.

So obviously Romney in this poll is ahead of Obama, the whole thread is yet again meaningless propaganda used by the cult of Ron Paul.

I don't doubt that and I truly believe that he does poll better against President Obama than Mittens does. I was just pointing out what somebody (not naming names) will undoubtedly point out later.

Republicans voting for Romney are taking a huge gamble if all they want is "anybody but Barry". Dr. Paul actually stands for something and most Republicans don't even know how to handle or digest that concept.

No matter who gets nominated, I just wish Dr. Paul and President Obama would debate just to see our president get cornered into speaking candidly about foreign policy. I think it would make him a better president.

That's from today, whereas the article from the 12th, from what I can tell. If you want to prove that the article is false then give us a link to the poll used by the article writer showing that he was lying.

polls are pretty good, but there's a difference between saying a name over the phone and pulling the lever

this is just proof santorum should have stayed in, and that romney is weak, not that paul can win

Today is what matters, and the thread was started today.
The accuracy of the thread is a joke.
Mitt Romney is ahead in the poll, and Ron Paul isn't even a factor or was not worth wasting resources to include in the poll.

Your article is almost a month old...the NEW Rasmussen Poll has Obama at +6 over Ron Paul.

You can go look at all the Ron Paul vs Obama polls here: www.realclearpolitics.com...


I'm not sure why you make a thread with the title beginning with "NEW" with 4 week old data when there have been multiple Rasmussen polls and other polls done after this "NEW" poll of yours

I'm surprised the OP used this article at all. In addition to all the other problems mentioned with the OP's source, both of the matchups show the candidates within one point of each other. In a survey with a three point margin of error?

I'm still undecided on a candidate, but this press release doesn't show that only Paul can beat Obama. It only shows that at the time the survey was conducted everything was too close to call.

I'm not surprised at all.

I'm also not surprised I have seen this thread linked to in at least 3 other threads claiming that Ron Paul is beating Obama in the polls.

Mis-information at it's finest....and yet here it stands....claiming this "NEW" information when it is weeks old and 5 Rasmussen Polls ago.

But that is Ron Paul supporters for you

Ouch, are you guys going to throw all of us under the bus? I mean come on, don't toss out the baby with the bath water. Let's not kill messenger guys. He's just tellin us, what he's coming across.

If anything, we sic the dogs on the sauce

I smell.. something, my bs meter is picking something up and Yahoo! just lost a lil credibility. And i'm serious. In no way shape or form is Ron Paul mentioned in that poll results that Yahoo! article. In fact, those bogus claims about Ron Paul aren't even close to what those polls and article in the original source really are.

RP Supporters have infiltrated Yahoo! or something else, hmm. Something to watch.. closely.
