I like Greta's closing statement - "Why not pull up another chair?"
The fact that they talked about Paul's exclusion at all is very likely due to the action we've taken, and I think we should be proud of that. As always, more coverage is good coverage, even if it's not all positive. As usual, they parrot the "he'll never be president" mentality, which makes me roll my eyes (although surprisingly, the second time they chuck out that line, Smith asks, "Well how do we know?" though it goes unaddressed). Aside from that, they say some uncharacteristically supportive things of Paul, which is nice.
"Never be president"... heh. I think they'll be singing a different tune after New Hampshire. I think that all that needs to happen to prove that Paul is one of the "real" candidates is for his primary results to place him at least shoulder to shoulder with the others. In Iowa, Paul was only about two percent away from being in a tie for third place. That minor fluctuation in percentages would mean a lot in terms of perception and media coverage. I think that Paul's support is only going to continue to grow. Iowa produced solid results and it proved that Paul's support is real. This is far, far from over.

Shep Smith - news manipulator!!
Not getting Fox News in the UK, I'm not familiar with Shep Smith, but just watching that video shows that he probably genuflects at the image of Rupert Murdoch every morning. He seems EXACTLY want the American people need to overcome. A slimey, cynical news anchor that is a manipulator extraordinaire!
How on earth Rupert Murdoch was let into the United States in the first place..... Hold on, it was money, wasn't it? This year could prove his undoing!!
