considering the fact that Paul and Obama are polar opposites, I would say write-in Paul. Paul is the most conservative member in congress and Obama is the most Liberal. How could you consider Obama? Is it because he says change so much?

55 reporting and 2% ahead of McCain.

That is how I see it playing out too.

52 reporting and 0.7% behind McCain.
