Ron Paul is the only candidate not chomping at the bit for nuclear war in the ME. Does that mean anything to any of you?

CBS only gave Paul 90 seconds last night to speak and answer questions during a 90 minute "debate". Wake up folks. You can choose or let the MSM decide for more of the status quo.

I am not an Obama supporter, and would be happy if the republicans present an inspiring and articulate candidate who wont be burdened by personal problems.

I dont see that yet-----every time a Republican candidate pops to the top he climbs inside the toaster and gets burned.

If Repubs think Newt is the answer-----another toaster candidate.

Its not too late for another candidate to step forward who can inspire----Christie can change his mind or maybe a young guy like Ryan.

The longer this merry go round continues the greater chance Obama has to be reelected. Right now Romney appears to be the only candidate with a chance, but it appears that factions of the Republican Party and the Tea Party are hell bent on denying Romney. The Repbs need to put an end to their circus pretty soon.

So, Ron Paul wins 16 straw polls and those don't count and aren't important, but Ron Paul loses 2 or 3 and it's a clear indication that the voters are rejecting him. Really?

Show me which policy of Ron Pauls hasn't worked. Plenty of examples in the past.

Not you personally. Check the topic you posted. Mainstream Republicans in general

Well if you're picking a candidate based off of straw polls, then Ron Paul's your man. He wins them all of the time.
