If I were him by now I'd be a little indignant and rub their face in the terrible reporting they did and turn the tables on them and ask them, not in so many words, why they lied (now that the truth is coming out and they can't deny it).
Yeah, he was on Cavuto and asked about running as an independent, for the 50th time. They also asked him about gay marriage. He said the problem is govt involvement offering perks and benefits. The federal gov't shouldn't have gotten involved in marriage.
I see it as a diversion from the real issues, to keep us from talking about the economy, gov't spending, and where to cut. Only Ron Paul has a vision of where he wants to take this country, and the plans to get us there.
I've been looking into whether we should still be supporting NATO. Seems to me, they serve no purpose and we should stop funding them. We don't need them to form a coalition, especially when we end up carrying the load anyway. (I'm off topic, just wanted to throw that out there as another expense we could cut)

US troops already joke that Nato's International Security Assistance Force (Isaf) stands for "I Saw Americans Fighting".

Paul supporters taking the delegate count in Romney's Massachusetts, doesn't look good when Tampa rolls around.

I'd have to say "we ain't seen nothin' yet" in terms of SURGING.

Last weekend was the start of the momentum and we still have a ways to go but now the MSM is having to face facts!

Here's the real good news from Ron Paul himself:

Ron Paul Update - YouTube

It's VERY UPBEAT and POSITIVE more than I've ever heard him!

Thank-YOU and everyone for hanging in and keeping the faith and not buying into the mainstream media propaganda!

Isn't it nice to know that at least we'll have a level playing field in Tampa and it will be pretty hard to fudge the delegates votes there.

The GOP wants each state to use the diebold machines to cast their vote on the floor in Tampa.


That's their only hope the way things are trending.
