The Official Ames Straw Poll Thread

[RP Supporter]

I've heard the line at Bachmann's tent is the longest.

The good news is she apparently is making people sign up before they enter the tent, as opposed to most of the other candidates, so that creates quite a line.

looks like a good mixed demographic standing down in front of the stage.

He does much better at rally speeches and debates than in this type of setting.

They have to vote for her before entering is what I heard.

I mentioned over and over again that we needed to raise more money if we wanted to win Ames.

We still may win it, but if we don't then at least I can say I spoke up (even if I was banned for it).

MSNBC airs all of the first speech and 2 minutes of Ron Paul and then cuts back to commericals and past video from earlier in the day..............FML

Then the announcer goes on to say that Ron Paul is "off the reservation." No respect at all; makes me sick, and made me sick 4 years ago.

This is easily the most impressed I have ever been with Ron Paul.

RP sounds like he has a fire in his belly today! Has he been getting coached on speaking?

 

[febo]

Yes!

 

[COpatriot]

There's Rand!

Okay, hit his stride with foreign policy. As he usually does, of course.

 

[Havax]

That slow cadence was incredible. He needs to do that more often!

 

[flightlesskiwi]

yep.... loved it!!!!

Bachmann may have a large presence at her tent, but I think we have the whole room in the Colosseum. That will probably switch as Bachmann comes out.

Its part of him. Truth always is.
