Election 2012: Barack Obama 42%, Ron Paul 41% - Rasmussen Reports

Pit maverick Republican Congressman Ron Paul against President Obama in a hypothetical 2012 election match-up, and the race is – virtually dead even.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of likely voters finds Obama with 42% support and Paul with 41% of the vote. Eleven percent (11%) prefer some other candidate, and six percent (6%) are undecided.

It would be awesome for Obama's re-election bid if Paul is on the November 2012 ballot.

Does anyone really think that Paul has a chance to win the GOP primary?

I don't.

I'd vote for Paul in a heartbeat, but there's no chance in hell he wins the GOP nomination.

Besides, Paul always does well in the informal polls anyways.

The Obama team would use the White Supremacist movement's endorsement of Paul, and his subsequent refusal to disavow the endorsement of loons like David Duke, against him. I wouldn't blame them, either. I like Paul's economic message, but I won't support him with my vote.

Plently of people would vote for the piece of crap over Obama.

Without a doubt the poop would do a vastly better job.

What in particular don't you like about what Paul has to say??

Can he get the nomination? The majority of republicans polled said they identify with the tea party more than they do with the Republican National Comittee.

His son is holding a double digit lead for a senate seat in Kentucky.

Ron Paul: Barack Obama is Not a Socialist - Washington Wire - WSJ

“In the technical sense, in the economic definition, he (obama) is not a socialist,” the Texas Republican said to a smattering of applause at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference.

“He’s a corporatist,” Paul quickly added, meaning the president takes “care of corporations and corporations take over and run the country.”

You can lay a sure bet that LSM media will portray him as a nutcase as they always have but OTOH the majority of Americans are sick to death of the LSM.

Based on the last campaign and what I saw on the front lines down in the trenches campaign for Paul; the Republicans will do everything in their power to disavow him. This will disenfranchise/discourage a lot of voters. My guess this will drive votes to the Libertarians, we might even see some grab seats in the Congress.

I won't vote for Obama and I won't vote for someone just because they have an R next to their name, unless they have to have an economic message that has substance, none of the mainstream Republocrats do right now.

If the R's think they can win back the house on the same tired old stale message, I disagree, if they go this route, I think you'll see D's retain or L's take some.

The only thing I'll say about Paul is he is probably the only politician in America that would be willing to kill government programs.

If Bush got re-elected, I think Obama will, too. Especially because I'm not sure who the GOP will have up against him.

The issue isn't what an individual voter thinks about what Paul has to say; it's what the GOP corporate establishment thinks about what Paul has to say.

The $$ is not going to get behind him.
