    Fox just reported on the bottom tier candidates. Paul is doing better than I would have given him credit for doing.

    Huck's at 35% now. Romney 24%.

    Yeah, some nut said "but, but, but I didn't start it to bash Huckabee!" Once you've sold out, it's so easy to continue doing it.

    I love him to death, but Ron White was absolutely correct when he said "You can't fix stupid!"

    Facts are trash talk now hey?

    No bashing would be if I said someone had 'no chance' yet at every turn used information from no named blogs to constantly rip on Huck.

    I don't do that to Huck, you two sure do remind me of those who do it to someone else all the time though :rolleyes:

    grim, you have no facts. You never have. Just like when overwhelming evidence came out that violence in Iraq was down, you had no facts, and still don't today. You spent wasted effort on dozens of pages of posts, trying to prove otherwise.

    Just like when I posted Ron Paul's racist comments and then followed up with an actual interview he made defending them. Not a no name blog, but a news outlet that interviewed him.

    I do admire your stubbornness though. I know where it derives from ;)

    "but, but, but I didn't start it to bash Huckabee!"

    OK, now that *someone* has hopefully finished making themselves the center of attention by coming in and pulling a drama queen stunt:

    Back to reporting with 65% of results in:

    Huckabee: 34%

    Romney: 25%

    Thompson: 14%

    McCain: 13%

    Ron Paul: ?? (too low to register)

    BTW, congrats to Obama. Like him or not, he's made history and a very impressive presence at 37% (so far).

    Of course if the MSM had any proof Ron Paul actually made racist comments they would be all over it and you would have to resort to no-name blogs.

    BTW, I fell this sense of...déjà vu.

    this is what its like when RP suffers the fate that americans who think for themselves knew he would....they can't face the facts (its a CONSPIRACY!!!) that RP is really not the dream candidate (although since most of these people that follow Alex Jones are in la la land all the time, I guess to them he is a dream!).

    I beg to differ. Ron Paul is a bottom tier candidate and tonight's Caucus continues to illustrate this point. The MSM isn't going to waste time doing an investigation on a bottom tier candidate. They may do it, but they are certainly not going to use it when that candidate is polling in single digits. That's just common political sense.

    Ron Paul has not earned the right to media scrutiny yet. Romney, Huckabe (especially), McCain all have. Huckabee's been vetted and scrutinized heavily during his rise in December.

    Think about what you are saying. You and others claim that Ron Paul isn't treated fairly in the media. You haven't seen *anything* yet! If Ron Paul should somehow rise above, to the top three, from the bottom of the list, he'll have his day in the media spotlight. I'd say he's been lucky so far, but the truth is, he's not on the radar.

    I must admit I am quite dissapointed by these results. Paul is pretty much performing on target with the Zogby poll #s which to me is very bad news. I was hoping he would greatly out perform the poll numbers.

    I can't believe that 90% of Republicans would vote for pro-war candidates. I also can't believe that 60% of the Iowa Republicans are evangelicals. I think this spells trouble for the Republicans long term.

    On the other hand I am happy that Barack Obama beat Clinton.

    The irony here, is that a few RP supporters try to distance themselves from the looney/conspiracy/9/11 troofer/stormfront types of supporters that RP has amassed, then Bryant comes along and links to a 9/11 troofer/conspiracy website to make a point.

    /GTech just looks in amazement and shakes his head

    Again with the lying Gtech, I never said it wasn't down. I stated the same as our own men and women over in Iraq stated, but nice try and big shocker YOU lied yet again!
    There were more things than just the few quotes that came from no named blogs Gtech.. Even those quotes did not come off as racist to me, poorly worded yes, racist not even close.
    Oh do you now? The narcissist in you?
    I didn't Gtech, I guess one can not start any factual thread unless it's pro Huckabee otherwise it's to bash him. I dont' mindlessly bash in every thread possible, that would be you ;)
