Ron Paul Can't Win

[GAVol]

I'm a little skeptical of this poll. Santorum's numbers are ridiculous. No way anybody's numbers can do that and be valid.

Paul is up, Gingrich is up, Romney is down. The ads critical of Romney for Bain and being a moderate flip flopper are taking their toll.

Probably too little, too late.

I don't think so. Big picture, I think Newt hurt himself big time. Especially with Ron Paul defending Romney about Bain.

Point taken?

Still, it bodes well for Paul that the conservative vote is a state of upheaval. It also proves that no one should ever spend more than $5 campaigning in Iowa.

The vermin won't report the endorsement the man got, but they will report this....
Sad on so many levels.

Wow, 31 flights to and from his home district since 2009. Stop the waste, Ron. Haven't you heard of Skype?

Sigh... and what is missing here? A frame of reference. How does Ron Paul's travel expenses match up to the Congressional average. Is 31 trips too many, average or below average? Is $52,000 above average or below average compared with other members of Congress?

And of course, he gets no credit for actually opening up the books and showing all of his expenses, while Bachman seemed to be given a pass.

I swear... what will be the next story? Ron Paul kills puppies? :crazy:

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Paul paid $51,972 for his government-rate flights between Washington and Houston between May 2009 and March 2011, or more than twice the $24,351 average airfare on Continental for travel between Washington and Houston.

49 flights over 22 months = Just over 2.2 flights per month

$51,972 - $24,351 = $27,621 of "waste and abuse"

$27,621/22 months = $1255.50 per month of "waste and abuse"

$1255.50/30 days = $41.85 of "waste and abuse" per day for Ron Paul

Yeah, Ron Paul is really shafting the taxpayers. :crazy:

I challenge you to find another Congressman that can "waste" less than $42 a day. Really???

Now that Huntsman is out. I'm on the Paul train.

He's not the best speaker, but he has the right ideas. That's all that matters to me.

These debate really are not his thing. I just hope people look at facts compared to if a person can speak well, you see what that got us.

I agree 100%

I swear, i wish i could just hand people his books and say read these, then decide who you want to vote for.

I think Paul had a good night

Agree, that is my hope as well. You have people so hooked on this whole warmongering mentality, and its killing this country at its very core.

He really sounded like ranting old guy a few times.
