Creepy News Network

Writes David Schatz:

"CNN just interviewed a 28 yr old solider about to go on his 3rd tour of duty...a Ron Paul supporter...that Dana Bash pointed out how some people think Paul's ideas on military are dangerous...solider started complaining about picking fights with other countries and noted that Israel is capable of defending itself...then TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES!!!"

Writes Eli Cryderman:

"Excellent way to watch poll results. Paul in lead!"

Ron Paul Has 4,000 Babies

And they all love him. Writes a friend:

"When I used to have a table at gun shows handing out Ron Paul lit, I can't tell you how many people came up to me and proudly told me that he was the Dr. who cared for them and delivered their children.  Yes, and he was wonderful, competent, caring and kind.  The best was when a guy came up wearing a t-shirt that said 'I'm a Ron Paul Baby'.  Apparently he's got quite a loyal following among them.  That t-shirt is a badge of honor."

The Media Are Somber

Because of the early news of Ron's support. In heroic Indianola county, Ron has 40%. In the ecompleted ntrance polls, it's Ron 24%, Romney 23%, reports a downcast CNN.

3rd Party Pot Still Boiling

According to the Boston Globe:

"With independent activists already doing the heavy labor of securing November ballot slots for a third party, and Paul's name prominently among those who could become its standard-bearer, Republicans are reluctant to condemn him too strongly, lest he decide to jump."

"Condemn him too strongly"? You have to go back to the 19th century to find a presidential candidate more viciously attacked by the GOP and its media and think-tank shills than the Good Doctor.

Of course, the GOP is more than worried. It is terrified at the specter of a Ron Paul revolution.
