The Suffolk guy is on MSNBC saying Huntsman is the only one gaining!?!?!?!? Has he not seen his own poll? What the hell is going on here!

Msnbc is pushing Huntsman hard...I also want to see the interview by Andrea Mitchell with Rand...I just can't believe he said it will be over if Romney wins S.C.
Yikes. Also said Huntsman is doing what santorum did in iowa. After this mornings events, I now project huntsman as the favorite to finish 2nd. The brainwashing the next 48 hours will be too much to overcome

"Huntsman is the only one showing movement." -Suffolk guy
How can he get away with that? Ron is the one surging in their own poll. The pollsters are pushing Huntsman, the media's pushing Huntsman. I feel helpless.

Read my sig.
Just watch a Romney commercial... same distribution of time.
How is Ron Paul handling Mitt Romney with mittens effective for the campaign? He is coming off as Romney's guard dog, taking on minor candidates, and letting that be his media focus, as opposed to reaching upward to Romney and Obama. I would love to see a shift in his campaign, and for him to at least attempt rising above the fray---so long as he remains with the GOP.
I am a long time Paul supporter. I know that most criticism does not play well here, to the extent of attracting censorship, but I think we are failing in our efforts to support Paul's campaign if we do not allows ourselves to openly evaluate the prevailing strategy. Both Paul and the campaign are fallible, as our own views and opinions, and I am certainly not exempt from that statement. I am worried, however, that groupthink here is creating blind spots toward real potential vulnerabilities of Paul and the campaign.

Even if they did it would look like they were attacking down and give huntsman more credit and more reason to be on national news stations as they discuss the attack ads. We have known this would happen. The media will give huntsman a free surge by lying and pushing an agenda. They don't want huntsman to win, they want romney to win. They just want the non romney vote to be even further divided. Even if we had attack ads, people listen to the pundits on these stations that tell them who to vote for. Why do you think Santorum essentially tied with a few days of media praise? People are fickle, and the exit polling showed it when 95% of the people voting for santorum said they made up their mind to vote for him within the past 3 days.
