Title: Ron Paul wins Ohio Republican straw poll with 53%
Post by: Bindare_Dundat on October 23, 2011, 12:31:49 AM: Texas Republican congressman Ron Paul has won the latest Republican presidential straw poll.

The Texas Republican, who continues to trail former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney in national polls, captured the support of 53 percent of Ohio Republicans. Former businessman Herman Cain won the support of 26 percent of Republicans voting in the poll. Mr. Romney captured 8 percent in the poll, while the rest of the Republican field captured less than 5 percent.

The event requires participants to pay $25 to participate giving Ohio Republicans a chance to have their voices heard in the early stage of the presidential primary nominating process.

Mr. Paul’s victory in Ohio comes as his campaign announced they would launch a series of ads aimed at criticizing his Republican opponents. The campaign will also run radio versions of these spots, and complement the broadcast push with substantial voter outreach on the same topics.

What RP needs is an event that will gather a crowd of 50,000 people. Something of that magnitude could not be kept off the news.

If anything Anderson Cooper went out of his way to do a segment saying that RP gets just as much air time as all the other candidates at the debates. Somehow I dont think there's going to be much coverage, a la Cain unless it's news that he drops out.

Oh fucking please!

The 20% of things you claim to agree with him on are not the main things that are needed to fix the nation.
