They never will realize it. I would add, I think we can expect to see lots of ups and downs in the polls for the next few months at least. After Feb the true picture will start to take shape.

When will you and other posters stop lying about "spamming" straw polls? No one's "spamming" anything. You're either misinformed or a liar. In order to participate in this straw poll you had to A)live in Illinois B)be eligible to vote C)pay to vote and D)you could only vote once. There was no "spamming" going on, saying otherwise is flat wrong. YOU. ARE. WRONG.

chickenfriedbananas, Good post. This poll drop is a threat to Mie Huckabee, as if MH does not improve his ratings, HC will be available very soon.

Winning straw polls that mean exactly nothing, just as he did in 2007.

First off, I see nothing of the sort in her post, are you just going off half-cocked again because anyone here hints there might be some hanky panky going on in the Paul cult? How about this, you Paulette’s stop trying to claim it's all a Big Conspiracy that no one is giving poor old Paul the attention he is due and others might stop claiming you guys are a bag of nuts.

How about this, you status quo loving statists learn to investigate something called "context" before you interject yourself in the middle of something not regarding you whatsoever.

So sorry to disappoint ya, no I am not, but I will post when and where I wish, don't like my posts, don't read them and surely do not reply to them. Always like it when I hit a nerve, which I obviously did in my post, hence the personal attack in reply, enjoy
