I agree with the original poster. It doesn't matter how "right" what someone says might be, if no one can understand it. To understand many of Paul's answers, you need to have done some background research before viewing the debate. The average person is never going to do that research, so...
That's what I'm guessing as well because he is usually very upfront about his support of candidates and if he wasn't going to be allowed to support Ron Paul, Edwards would definitely be his next choice. Last season on his show, he was a big Paul supporter, but this season it's like Paul doesn't...
Bill is very much a Libratarian though. He is with Ron on other issues too. Especially things like the war on drugs.
I remember him being a big Nader supporter as well.
I'm actually a Maher fan, but this has even me going wtf. Maybe he does support Paul's stances, but he obviously hasn't been paying much attention to the details since he said he didn't even know Maine had a caucus.
He clearly supported Ron Paul before, but now the last few shows of his he hasn't mentioned him. He donated to John Edwards, not Ron Paul.
Also, right now he is on Larry King Live and hasn't mentioned him. There was even a question asking "Which candidate will be best for the economy" and...
I don't know about that. I think it's actually closer to the 10%. Or maybe 20% at most. I'm in a political science class right now and hardly anyone even there had heard of him! The few that had heard, only knew his name but knew nothing about his policies.
Another discouraging moment was when...
He's going up. :) Last week he was winning Alaska, Hawaii, ND, SD, Montana, Nebraska, and Wyoming. Now this week, Vermont, West Virginia, and Maine have been added.
