Interesting to see the Fox debate page still has the clip from their last Fox debate. It's the one asking which contender the candidate would pick as a VP.

Ron Paul said that he's currently polling in 3rd and will defer until he's in the top two.

That was just before Cain surged, and now that Cain is out, Ron Paul is back in 3rd nationally:

Since Iraq ended today, I'm sure a big part of the debate will be foreign policy. Ron can and needs to hit it out of the park especially since they will probably attack his foreign policy

We didn't leave anything and nothing ended. They have the world's largest embassy with 17,000 people there. They just replaced the soldiers with contractors that cost the taxpayer even more money.

they sure like to have these debates late, which might be a good thing since i dont think the older folks are going to stay up from 9-11pm in the east.

Ron should label all the others with endorsing a liberal/progressive foreign policy. They seem to continue to ask why Ron has gone with negative ads he should say the ads are not negative it is the truth, if people believe the truth is a negative then maybe they should look at the candidate Im talking about. The time is now to save this country even if I do hurt some feelings with the truth.

If I am going to be totally honest right now, I think we are walking into a massive trap.

They have built us up the last two days and I think Fox is about to drop a bomb on us. They are going to try to bury this campaign tonight. I think they will directly ask him a question on the newsletters, attack him in foreign policy, and Santorum will probably make some 9/11 truther comments. Fox is petrified of us right now, they can't stand us polling so high, and they are going to do everything in their power to bring us down. I thought this debate would be huge because we could win Iowa because of it. Now, I think this debate is huge if we can make it out alive.

God bless you Ron!

I'm so nervous about this. Even if Ron is on his A game, they're just going to shut him out.

Bill O'Reilly just said Ron Paul isn't a factor in New Hampshire. LOL he's at 21% second place! O'Reilly also saying they need to attack Ron Paul. Wow...

I called that out the other day. They should be careful about attacking him too hard though. When Paul get to talk, he tends to please more people than he upsets. If they want to ruin him, they have to find a balance between attacking and ignoring.

Yep. He's "not a factor" ... but "we need to attack him."

*inhales deeply* Ahhhhh. I love the smell of cognitive dissonance in the evening.

Also, Ron is at his best when being attacked.
