It seems to beg the question:
Why if other candidates could be voted for, and were on the agenda, why did they fail to vote?
They didnt care enough to stay and vote,
Why, if they were Paul, Palin, or supporters of someone else? Did they know the outcome prior to the vote?
Whatever the reason such a small % voted
We know that, why?
Are you a Paul supporter
I'm not the issue here...lol
Ron Paul is at least one thing, IMO:
UNELECTABLE...
Things may look larger in your mirror.
The people who vote at CPAC are usally organized in advance by people who have an interest in nabbing the “CPAC winner” headline. Either people who are almost cult like in devotion or people who are paid. Ron was the first and Romney is the second reason. Everyone else who participates follows their own conscience.
Most people who attend CPAC skip the poll though.
Palin didn’t organize supporters toward this poll and unlike Paul’s supporters I don’t think hers took it upon themselves to rcae down to CPAC to win this poll. It is fairly interesting she came in third without any campaign here.
CPAC website says 2395 voted in 2010 straw poll with more than 10,000 in attendance.
