That is what I have trying to get through on. Nobody thinks he could do that. Not even Paul. |

Aaron -- that's not exactly a ringing endorsement from Beck, certainly nothing that is going to have any real affect on votes. If Keith Olberman were to say 'I'm not really a big fan of Obama, but I certainly would vote for him over Bush', it's not exactly a game changer. |

I agree, but it is actually a move towards Paul from where he has been in the past...and some dude named "Joe Pags" who was substituting for him said the same thing....both have said in the past that they wouldn't vote for him...a slight change of tune. |

They also said that in an atmosphere where there wasn't even a miniscule chance of him getting the nomination. I guarantee that in 2008 if Paul had been the nominee, they would have voted for him. |

Actually, the President has a great deal of authority to affect foreign policy, much more so than fiscal policy, which is mainly set by Congress. |

Many of the candidates will not allow Iran to build nuclear weapons. |

that makes you feel safer? Do you think Iran is a nuclear threat to the United States? |

you don't seem to be referring to national "defense" rather national "offense". |

The French "prepared" to re-fight WWI by building the Marginot Line, and got their asses kicked in WW2. I believe you and other Paulites are repeating that same mistake now. |

Nice link. What do you think of this one...RCP New Hampshire Poll Average: Romney-38; Paul-18.3;Gingrich-17;Huntsman-10.5 Way to go "newest GOP favorite" you are only down by 27.5 points to Romney, 7.8 to Paul, and 6.5 to Gingrich. Brash words? More like pandering. |

He has been right up there for awhile. It isn't really a surprise. Santorum will get a bump and probably end up in third though he can't really count on the same amount of evangelical support in NH as he had in Iowa. To me, NH isn't really any bigger deal to me than is Iowa. The results may be more indicitave of the general voting public, but NH has so few delegates that really with the fact that over half the states are doing proportional delegates this year NH is just a blip. I mean they have 12 delegates. Even if Romney get 40% of the vote it isn't like he is going to run away with it. To me the contests really start in South Carolina. SC has a bunch of delegates up for grabs and the contest is far enough after NH that the candidates have time to get into the state and campaign. Plus with contests already in the books, some of the pretenders (Huntsman, Bachmann, Perry) will be seperated out. |
