Correct, Ron Paul has less chance of winning in general election than I have of beating Tiger Woods in a golf match.

But there are lots of bots around. There are Hoffmanbots,
Sharronbots, Christinebots, etc. Obviously some people care
more about nominating their sure to lose choice over someone
who can actually win against a democrat.

He has no chance of winning.

Interesting comment...The political groupies and insiders are saying the exact same thing about Palin.

All I needed to see was the people at CPAC boo Dick Cheney to know what kind of people those attending CPAC really are. This poll is meaningless because CPAC is meaningless

You should report this to Drudge, as he's running this as his top story.

This is the political dynamics of a meltdown of CPAC. I hope people learned something.

Agree, Sarah. Seems to me a number of CPAC attendees are little more than very far right zealots.

Boy this straw poll scam by Ron Paul and these leftists that sneak into every Conservative event by using this old fool Paul to cause havoc has gotten old
At every GOP event , Ron Paul pays these left wing college students to stuff these straw poll ballots and come to this event to disrupt it .

Now we know why Palin avoids this pathetic poorly run event.

Heaven Gate. Marshall Applewhite, had undergone voluntary castrations in the months leading up to the mass suicide.His nickname was Do. His significant other was Ti. The comet was Hale Bopp. Thank G*d for the fresh DNA from Col. Allen West and the Tea Party

What specifically would that be?

I don't follow PAC's much.
