What pops into my head is the massive march into grand central.

If he doesn't get in then we should all crash the party by marching right into the hall waving signs and chanting. I'd like to see them get a few K RP supporters packed in like sardines out to continue the debate.

This is much more than a march and chant.

if we actually want to WIN we have to literally surround this town with people

PULL THE PLUG.

this is the WHOLE ENCHILADA.....Paul must be in the debates RIGHT before the primaries (as this is when people actually pay attention).

Don't ever fail to realize that we are in a WAR folks....this is not just a casual thing at all.

Liberty or Slavery.....you make the call.

My friend in Iowa forwarded me the email. He's a Rudy supporter, and was gloating the Ron Paul isn't going to be in the next debate.

Sounds like hearsay at this point. Until we have confirmation, everyone put away your pitchforks.

TJ, you gotta be careful what you report as fact and what is hearsay. There are a lot of people who could overreact here and damage the campaign by being overzealous.

I have no doubt that it's a fact. But I'll let you guys catch up to me.

Go ahead and give them a call. I've posted the contact info.

Calm down. THe Des Moines Register says Dr. Paul will be there.

The Iowa Republican Party and Fox News Channel announced today plans for a Dec. 4 debate of the GOP presidential campaigns in Des Moines.

The Tuesday evening event is scheduled for Hy-Vee Hall in Des Moines and comes as the race to the Jan. 3 caucuses enters its final month.

It was unclear who would attend, although only those candidates who had support of at least 5 percent of those surveyed in recent national polls or The Des Moines Register’s Iowa Poll are invited, Iowa GOP officials said.

That would include former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Arizona Sen. John McCain, U.S. Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson. It could leave out U.S. Reps. Duncan Hunter of California and Tom Tancredo of Colorado.

i'm thinking you've finally shown your true colors troll. calling on people to massively call the Iowa GOP without even confirming your suspicous email first? I'm calling BS on this. if not, i'll eat crow, but i dont think i am.

They're playing dirty tricks... They want us to be comfortable... I already posted the numbers that they're basing this on.... Here they are again:

Fox News National Poll:

Ron Paul polled at 1%

Iowa Polls:

Ron Paul polled at 4% in the last Des Moines Register poll
Ron Paul polled at 1% in the last ARG Poll

Taco John,

I know. I saw the polls, but the paper thinks he's coming, so hopefully....

I like how the rule is 5%, but they can arbitrarily pick whatever poll they want to look at...

It's dirty tricks... They're purposefully being submersive about this.

Shut up you idiot...

ah yes, you help your cause so much with that retort. like i said, if i'm wrong i'll apologize however you have shown no proof to this point. all your doing is asking us to get up in arms for no reason, and further the perception that we are 'crazy'.

F-Fox News and this debate, less than 2 million people watch these stupid things anyway! Lets just get up enough money to run national ads during the debate, especially in Iowa

Have Ron Paul come on and say I wasn't included because Fox's polls don't seem to rate me high enough. The funny thing is the American people must rate me pretty highly they're the ones that paid for this commercial!

 

[Lord Xar]

well, considering the MSM conduct the polls and have ALWAYS been biased to Bush voters - they will exclude Ron Paul because he is clearly becoming a threat...

but we won't let that happen, will we.
