1. Considering that perhaps hundreds of those votes are from DU...
it should probably be considered a little suspect. :)

2. i know, but it's fun. Makes Republicans think Paul is hacking the website
lol during the first debate they scratched their head trying to figure out why Paul got so many votes, and concluded that Paul instructed his followers to flood the website with votes or something.

3. Agreed. If nothing else, it makes the other candidates think Paul's support
is stronger than it is.

If they think that, maybe they'll waste time, money, and effort on fighting him.

Good point.

5. Why is he being discredited?
That would be a hoot.....there might be some strange bedfellows in this election. The corp. controlled media is working overtime to discredit him, even though he says things that make more sense than many Presidential candidates.

11. He does just fine discrediting himself and his
history in the House is testament to that.

6. Web voting page doesn't work
Does the media not want anyone to vote?

7. According to this CNBC pulled the poll
Apparently the moneyed corporate types at CNBC didn't want Ron Paul seen as winning.
