I'm not suggesting that candidates like Paul or Newt have increased support based on the polling, it's more a reflection of the lack of a dominant front runner this early in the campaign. Santorum, Bachmann, and Huntsman are likely going to run out of money after the initial primaries unless they do well. Perry, Gingrich, Cain and Romney may have a bit more leeway in their finances.

This is the first time that I've ever had to question your reading skills. I explained WHY in the OP.

It amazes me that this crowd, like Larry, is so heavily propagandized to vote for The Corporate State faction, that they miss who their truly revolutionary candidate is. Gingrich is simply a continuation of Bush and his failures, but I bet the nuts back him in droves now that the real nuts like Perry and Bachmann and Cain have shown their feet of clay. If Gingrich gets in, he will simply continue the Deal Makers Congress and the entire rotten system that runs this country, as he feeds his suckers trite slogans, right wing hate and hoax emails. Paul, on the other hand, represents a revolutionary break from business as usual, which is why the Right Wing Fascists hate him. For that reason, he might even get my vote if I think the positives of ending the military-industrial complex's stranglehold on this nation could be broken, and that outweighs the negatives of unfettered capitalism, the thing he truly represents.

There is one interesting tidbit in this barely legible rambling. It kind if implies that the Repubs are the only ones into deal making. That's one of the funniest things I've read on here in quite awhile.

Also, I'm missing the connection between GW and Newt. Neither one of them was in DC at the same time as the other.

In the midst of Solyndra, GM, the Wall Street and other connections to the Whitehouse, this is quite a hypocritical laugh.

I'd certainly consider Paul if he is still in the race when I get a chance to vote. Unlike many of my conservative friends, I think Paul represents a more correct view of foreign policy.

How exactly is a guy who spends his time on the side being the chairman of the Reagan Presidential Library, how can he somehow be a "lefty" at the same time? Are you saying he is a spy of some sort? That the GOP lets a spy run the Reagan Library, a shadow Democrat of some sorts? I don't think so. What I think, is that when you identify "Politico" with "lefties", you are simply making it all up. Politico is a news outlet run by a top member of the Republican Establishment wing, so it is pretty easy to make the case that Politico is probably in the bag for Romney, given who actually runs the place, a Reagan guy, then it is to claim it is some "lefty" information outlet. The real truth is you are so brainwashed, it is impossible for you to see the truth, and that anyone who attacks your guy must be a "lefty". So the real truth is, you are so far to the right, even the Reaganites have become "lefties" to you.

Why are you making things up about "lefties" when it is obvious that you folks on the right are eating each other alive in your quest for power?
Red= Well there you go.
Blue= Never implied.

I don't see Politico leaning any which way but loose, ever since their endorsement of President Bush years ago. I enjoy reading you tell Larry he's brainwashed and basically implying ignorance to the 'truth', when you yourself take the stance of every lefty I have the so 'gracious opportunity' to converse with in Connecticut.

Don't worry Larry, we're just too simple and ignorant to see that the left wing knows whats best for us common folk. Maybe I should emulate our current President and play a round of golf in between classes and conferences. Or lend money to companies that go belly up all over the place. Or force emissions regulations that no one wants to adhere to except So Cal. Buy out an awful auto union to produce more cars no one 'wants'.

As to our ravenous appetite for power, I don't recall President Bush entering a conflict without Congressional approval or throwing fliff around like a sultan. I also only recall the slaying of one dictator under Bush's regime, and two down thus far in the Obama Presidency.
So... who's the war monger?

I don't get why anyone follows the leader boards regarding who's on top in the public vote for the Republicans. While Romney isn't the furthest right candidate we've got, he's well moderate enough to succeed appealing to ALL constituents. Plus, it's the RNCs final decision anyways. Cain is obviously a no go-- he has less foreign policy education than Obama. Gingrich is an easy kill skeleton wise, but I would thoroughly enjoy watching him mop the floor with Obama in a debate. I can hear him stutter like Dubya now.

No, you're not making any sense. On the one hand you are a self professed right wing nutjob but on the other hand you want to trash Newt. I mean if you didn't want to trash Newt you wouldn't have started this thread. Is there a closeted pinko leftist deep down inside you yearning to get out? Whats your deal?

He was beating whichever person who was going to post the thread to the chase? Pretty simple reading comprehension. Unless you're playing coy.

I voted for Ron Paul in 2008. This next time I will not vote for him because of his party membership.

And you're questioning the reading skills of others?

I like Cain and Paul. Thanks for the info JR. I'm starting to wonder if the better presidents are womanizers.

Truman was as true to Bess as they come. I believe history is coming to regard him as a pretty decent Prez.

I also hear no womanizing rumors about Nixon, Carter, Reagan, GHWB, GWB and Obama.

I will leave it to you which are good prez's and which are not.

Personally I prefer a man who is true blue but his political actions interest me a lot more than his personal actions.

Why can't you libs get your head screwed on straight! Obama is the worst President in American history. Corrupt as they come. You believe everything that the liberal media spews on a daily basis. They'll tell you that's is OK to play in the middle of the Interstate and you will probably the first one on the road playing. Get real!
