If the voting age were lowered to 12 , Paul would have a real chance.

If 2004 and the ‘Dean-iacs’ teach us anything, it is that Iowans do not appreciate an irritating invasion from outside their state. Howard Dean’s supporters were an absolute pest back in 2004, and the whole thing backfired, with the favorite Dean (and his ‘incredible’ ground game - laughably known as ‘The Perfect Storm’) slumping to 3rd place, behind both John Kerry and John Edwards.

This could easily backfire for Ron Paul, too.

Gee, I wonder if there were any Freepers among them?

I won't refer to anyone's screen name who posts here and supports this certifiable loon, but there are some who for whatever reason (beats me, as I thought we were Conservative here?) have fallen for his "Populist/Isolationist/Libertarian" BS, while ignoring his "Truther/Anti-Israel/Islamic Jihadist-appeasing" philosophy.

Oops, sorry, I thought it was Ru Paul, but this (he/she/whatever) "person" does look like someone who would support a Ron Paul or other Liberal candidate. lol

“Members of the group confirmed that they were told by the campaign they would have to sign agreements that would bar them from talking to reporters....” So what is the campaign trying to hide?

They all appear to be related as they all carry the Looney-Tunes gene.

Nice to see younger voters supporting someone other than Obama, this time around.

But only as long as Cut and Run keeps them in dope. If he runs out so will they.

I imagine you’re wrong. (Notice the improved spelling vs. your kind post.)

LOL... so true! Ron Paul doesn't need young kids to say stuff; they might actually make more sense than the candidate in defending the Paulista campaign.

In fairness to Ron Paul, however, this isn't that unusual. I routinely deal with paid staff members of elected officials or candidates who are not authorized to speak on the record to reporters. In small towns where most people in public life know each other, that turns into, “OK, Darrell, here's the answer to your question and here's the phone number of the person in Washington (or the district office) who can tell you that officially.” An out-of-town reporter who isn't known to honor off-the-record commitments would get a “Sorry, I can't talk to you, here's the number of the media coordinator” and the same would be expected from a new staffer who doesn't know the local media.
