It's not so much Ron's numbers that are deflating.. It's the fact that a guy like Cain can get bumped to 17% by winning a straw poll and pimped by the media.
 
Don't give too much weight to any one poll. Knock off the outliers(like this one) and look at the trend over a good length of time. You'll have much better accuracy that way. Paul has been around 10% nationally for awhile. He has at least this much support come primary time. He is also ready to break out in Iowa. Things are moving fast here and things are about to start flying. Getting excited.
 
I've said it once and I'll say it again; unless someone who has taken the poll can verify if Quinnipac even asked the question " Who would you vote for if it was Obama vs. Paul", then be under the assumption that they did not even mention Paul's name. That percentage may be from pollsters who stated they would vote for Paul after being asked about all the other candidates. I was called by Quinnipac the day of the last debate for the Virgnia Poll and they did not mention Paul's name, but was added into the "comments" section after I mentioned his name to the caller;).

Lol. Fake polls are fake.
 
oh fooey. polls are polls. Legitimately, I think if the primaries were held today Ron Paul would be getting 15% or more!
