Turn onto CNN. They just mentioned Ron Paul and the Iowa forum!

Unfortunately it looks like it won't be in our favor.

They said how we posted the home phone number and the calls were 60 percent friendly and 40 percent harrassing. But that was just a preview...

 

[pazzo83]

Were they negative?

 

[AlexAmore]

Yes. It looked bad. But the story is coming up.

On Anderson Cooper?

On Anderson Cooper?

Yes
and they think we were negative on the phones, at least those who called.

RP Supporters Just Mentioned on CNN

Just saw a segment on CNN (Anderson Cooper 360 Raw Politics with Candy Crawley?) talking about Ron Paul supporters swamping the phone lines (both home and business) for one of the people who excluded him from the Iowa taxation group event. They quoted him saying something to the effect of "60 percent of the calls are courteous, 40 percent of the calls are nasty".

I apologize for not having all the specifics, but I just caught it on CNN and no DVR access where I am at.

60% friendly and 40% harassing? what kind of BS is that?

 

[LibertyCzar]

Well, I just hope this will reach Jack Cafferty for tomorrow's questions. At least we know that CNN is aware of this situation. Even if CNN tries to spin it in a negative way, it would be interesting to see what the viewers think.

Did I miss it, or have they not shown it yet?

They didn't show anything yet

Calling a person's home, whose family has nothing to do with the ordeal was unwarranted and not needed. Those that did, remind yourself not to do it in future ordeals that may arise.

 

[Therion]

Watch them mostly ignore that RP was deliberately excluded and concentrate on bashing RP's supporters (even if some of them deserve it).

 

[AlexAmore]

Perhaps it was just a quick mention of this ordeal and they won't have a real story about it. It looked to me like a preview of what's coming up, but I may be wrong.

I'll continue to watch.

Sounds like Ron's Campaign manager should follow up with an offer to explain!

 

[LibertyCzar]

I just posted this on a Digg submission:

This is the trouble with posting the guy's phone number on the internet. Now all of us Ron Paul supporters are left to prove a negative. There's no proof an actual supporter harassed the guy. But it cannot be conclusively said that a Ron Paul supporter was not harassing the guy either. Regardless, Ron Paul's campaign only posted the office phone numbers, so any calls to the guy's home were independently done. Any attempt to blame the campaign is misplaced.

Did I just here Anderson Cooper say that Barack Obama is the ONLY presidential candidate to release his earmark requests?

Im certain I read Ron Pauls requests earlier this week.

Anderson Cooper is a liar.

Aparently Savage listners also leave hate mail

[JoshLowry]

it hasn't come on, must of just been a blurb?
