how do you see results on wayin.com? I can't find them anywhere

I couldn't agree more. Each debate I watch this thread and listen to the comments, then I watch the debate on You Tube and wonder WTF people were getting so dissilusioned about. They want Dr. Paul to pander to this so called "Conservative Right" that is a dying entity.

He is gaining ground because is different than the rest of them.

This^

anyone remember the sign in the background of the fox news forum in 2007, in a far away house, that paul was excluded from... followed by thugs tackling him?

Campaign needs to create an Ad ASAP on Ron's foreign policy, that it is in America's best interest and follows the US Constitution.

His foreign policy does mirror the traditional Republican foreign policy platforms of the past, Howard Taft etc.

The opponents and the media are going to pound away now on Ron Pauls' foreign policy as being out of touch with the Republican mainstream and not looking out for America's best interest.

It is going to be a real battle royale!!!!

"How would you have Paul respond to these ridiculous provacative allegations about Iran?"

We knew going in this was going to be a tough room given who was running the debate and how much they are influenced by the neocons. Again and again they believe that if you attack RP on foreign policy that he loses support (No doubt Frank Luntz has told them this any number of occasions.) But if this were true we would not be where we are right now in the polls. People know what Paul's views are on this subjects. They've known for the last four years. None of this is new. He doesn't like war. Those who aren't going to support him because of foreign policy will not do so I doubt they ever have. So it seems to me, what we've done is change some minds on this topic and that's the kind of strength in a campaign money can't buy.

Newt is at 43% and leading on that wayin.com poll??? no way.... and the best way for Ron to counter the warhawks on Iran is to quote Abraham Lincoln - "the best way to destroy an enemy is to make him your friend." Mentioning that Iran was one of the first nations to offer condolences officially on 9/11, and point out that the "wipe Israel off the map" line is a MISQUOTE....

Didn't watch tonight, but the impression I get of FOX shutting Paul out for most of the last part of the debate, is that he was doing WELL. They thought if he was finally given generous time he would hang himself, then had to throttle back his time when he gave devastatingly good answers. FOX was also trying to save Newt in the second half of the debate after being clobbered early on by everybody, so they gave him extra opportunities to talk his way out, at the expense of Paul's time.

it will backfire on them imo

Emmmm... I dunno... but I hope those old dudes are grumpy too.

Paul did well except this thing about Iran...He recieved few "boos" . Someone allready wrote that he should mention that China and Russia are allies with Iran just like UAS is ally with Israel....ergo third world war.....he should also mention his usual :donation from troops etc.

P.s.
If people say that he didnt do awesome it doesnt mean that they are not suportinf Ron. It means that they got different view on things and please dont call each other trolls and attack on personal basis. Argue the argument not the person.

A lot of the boos were directed at Bachmann.

Love How hannaty says all names but Paul.

That guy with the HUGE Ron Paul sign behind Newt and Hannity is my hero.

 

[AlexG]

Love How hannaty says all names but Paul.

It's fun to watch him deliberately try and ignore Paul. He has to go out of his way to do it

Ron paul is the only one against instiigatin iran into a war. The american people are sick of these wars. Ron paul will only keep gaining. Especially in iowa.

You are splitting hairs. Paul made his position clearly and truthfully. There is no way to sneak his non-interventionist foreign policy past the neocons. He clearly and completely disagrees. The people will decide.
