Top of Drudge: POLL: Ron Paul Tied with Obama; In Two-Man Race with Romney...

So does anyone else cringe reading the comments from RP supporters with simple words spelled wrong and poor grammar? I sure do. We have to REPRESENT here, folks. Dont be lazy. Take your time. Don't let your emotions type for you. Make sure what you are writing makes sense, is spelled accurately and is grammatically correct. If unsure, run it by the board. Maybe it's just the frustrated English teacher in me, but man, some of the comments make us "Paulbots" look downright ignorant.

Don't forget the apostrophe in "don't".
 
I don't really understand the significance of drudge? Everyone here always talks about it but it's a site with very little css/style and organization of information. Can someone please help me 'get it'?

so. with gingrich hopefully near the final putts of his self-inflicted demise (oh, we knew you would do yourself in), and more and more people learning that not only is Ron Paul socially acceptable to support now, but he's neck and neck with Obama and Romney... we could very well see Ron Paul start pulling ahead.

PUSH!
 
The thing about Drudge, unfortunate as it is, is that he shapes the narrative for the majority of the base. Everyone starts doing stories or covering stories after Drudge has linked it, because the cat is out of the bag basically. I am glad Drudge is trying to shape the narrative of it being a two-man race.

You are on the internet. You need to learn to accept things.

people love how drudge "spins" the news. the attraction is Drudge's wit, not flashiness.

I think the site is ugly as hell, but it gets huge traffic.
 
Drudge is by far the fairest news source in the business. Even in 2008 he was fair to Ron Paul--covering the bombs and, at times, his blackout by other sources.
 
The campaign needs to post something about this on the Facebook and Twitter accounts.
 
Drudge made his name by scooping all the big networks on the Clinton scandals. The big media could not get over how a two bit political blog could get inside information they couldn't get. That is why it has a higher republican readership.
