Bloomberg News Poll- Iowa- Cain 20%, Paul 19%, Romney 18%, Gingrich 17%

[Esoteric]

I think PPP has started lying. I've seen too many "no way that's true" numbers out of them very recently. if you're curious, watch PPP's polls regarding Ron Paul and 18-29 and favorability.

PPP is a joke. Just look at their twitter. It looks like it's run by a 15 year old with an open vendetta against Ron Paul.

I thought he actually got 22% in one state's primary election last cycle.

Ok.... This is beyond huge. Ron Paul has neverpolled this high in any state or national poll before. It is by a very respected polling company on top of that, this should be all over the news. But as they will ignore it and just pretend it never happened, we will get little to no air time over it. So lets just hope they pick it up, or we may see Cain 20%, Romney 18%, Gringrich17% for the next week skipping over Ron Paul.

Washington, but it was a closed caucus clusterfuck, which can give results way off of what a poll asking likely GOP voters would predict. In the later-held GOP primary, Paul only took 8%. Paul didn't get a single delegate from the state (but three from WA in '08 were unpledged, so maybe he did). I'm not from WA, but I believe the delegates are split in half, giving all of the first half to the caucus winner, but split up the remaining half of the delegates based on the portion of votes candidates win in the state primary.

Imagine the Dr.'s response this morning when he finds out he's 2nd in Iowa

The campaign needs to have donations available on their website every Friday. The moneybombs are working very well.

Thanks for the tip. I've seen a lot of "pollsters never lie"

Can someone post this on the Hannity forums. Just checked and it hasnt been posted yet. Try to do it with out Being overtly pro Paul. I want to see what their reaction will be

 

[KEEF]

Excellent news!!! I'm geeked. Could someone keep an eye on the news cycle today? I can't wait to hear how MSM is going to report on this as well as our Neo-con talking heads Rush, Hannity, and Levin. Tuesdays are my busy days with teaching classes until 9:00 pm tonight. So I typically don't get news updates, besides for when I get home

Reps for everyone in advance.

They just showed this on Fox News (along with the PPP and CNN/ORC polls ).

Question is. Did they mention Paul? And if so what was said?

 

[FreedomProsperityPeace]

Yes. Gretchen listed off the names. They didn't comment on the results of this poll much (naturally).

This was the last thing I read before falling asleep. Been dreaming about it all night! Woke up and had to check that I wasn't still dreaming!

Cain will continue to drop as peeps find out the man knows nothing about anything, other than pizza. And we all know Obama has a lot more dirt on Cain then we have learned to date.

A vote for Romney or Newt is a vote for further destruction of the economy by declaring yet another expensive war we must borrow to pay for. Romney and Newt have already promised if elected, we are going to war.

Paul has a fabulous opportunity if we can get the message out.

Someone call in to Alex Jones with this info today, it will restore his and his listeners' enthusiasm, which they lost at the end of August. We need Alex pushing Ron now. Any volunteers?

 

[ronpaulfollower999]

Skimmed through the numbers. Didn't notice a 10-14%. "Why the hell did they talk about Ron Paul in the first sentence and not include his poll numbers?" Reread the numbers…actually noticing the names…and then did the Dean scream.

 

[rich34]

We need to be pushing the money bombs and it wouldn't hurt to throw one together quickly in a week or so just based off of this info and keep pushing for the 16th with promo vids. I really hope the campaign spends some money to make some money we really need to advertise that one.

It's up on Drudge under "POLL: Four-Way Dead Heat in Iowa..."

Of course no "RON PAUL SURGING!" like there is for everyone else. Everyone give it clicks to hopefully move it up.

Clicked.

My message I sent to Drudge : "Four way dead heat in Iowa?". Ron Paul is on top for the first time in Iowa. Why not promote that story of him surging like you did with all the others? Thank you (with you since 1996).

 

[bluesc]

Emailed the story in to the writers at infowars, hopefully we get a big headline and they pass the word on to Alex. We can re-energize that base and hopefully draw in the donations. He gets to legitimately call Ron a frontrunner again

a good pick me up for those have doubts about Ron's chances:

One thing that stood out in the article:



Where did the other 31% go?!?

They were probably independents treated like garbage by paranoid Libertarians who can't deal with integrating other people into the movement or fresh bottom up ideas.
