Ron Paul Is Now the Republican Frontrunner.
Posted on December 19, 2011 by WashingtonsBlog Ron Paul Pulls Into the Lead The Atlantic notes: A new poll from Public Policy Polling shows that Ron Paul has taken the lead in the Iowa caucus race, while Newt Gingrich’s support is fading fast. A different Gallup poll shows Gringrich still holding the lead, but slipping, while The New York Times has Paul in the lead as well. Gingrich has seen his numbers in the PPP poll drop from 27 percent to 14 percent in just three weeks, while his favorability rating is now split at 46 percent for to 47 percent against, the worst of any candidate not named Jon Huntsman. *** Perhaps the most telling secondary question was, “Do you think Newt Gingrich has strong principles?” Only 36 percent say that he does, but for Paul that number was 73 percent. Why is Mr. Paul so popular? As I pointed out in September, Americans overwhelmingly want: ■The Federal Reserve to be reined in if not abolished ■The never-ending, open-ended, goalpost-moving wars to stop and the troops to be brought home ■Our liberties to be restored, and the martial law indefinite detention idiocy to be reversed Paul has consistently championed these three American wishes for three decades. None of the other Republican (or Democratic) candidates are on the right side of history on any of these issues. http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2011/...ontrunner.html |

Paul is so popular in Iowa because Romney is a Mormon and Gingrich has had multiple marriages. If people cared about the Fed and liberty, he'd be doing much better in other states. It would be fascinating, however, to see how the media would spin a Ron Paul victory in Iowa. Are they going to conclude that the Iowa caucus is really irrelevant?
