I was very disappointed in the showing in Iowa. It was abetted by the apparent early signs of victory on some of the cable shows. I could see that Paul was falling behind both Romney and Santorum (who repeated the lie that RP says the US invited the 9/11 attacks in a debate) and I […]

Iowa state senator Kent Sorenson, the former chair of the Iowa campaign for MN Rep. Michele Bachmann has defected to RON PAUL! Talk about fairweather friends. Iowa state Sen. Kent Sorenson (R), who was Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann’s state campaign chairman, endorsed Texas Rep. Ron Paul Wednesday night. At a rally in Des Moines, Sorenson […]

Usually the NYTimes is not a friend of conservatives. But this article shows the surge for Ron Paul in Iowa. Homeschoolers, small business, and older voters have been reached by the RP message. Steve and Cindy Anders belong to one of Iowa’s most politically savvy movements — Christian home-schoolers, whose organizing on behalf of Mike […]

The money primary for the third quarter is about to happen. My background reading tells me that money will be critical. Romney has it; many others do not. Paul has some money but a strong end of the quarter showing will give renewed strength to a campaign that took something of a surprise hit in […]

The world now knows that Rep. Michele Bachmann won the Ames Straw Poll by less than 200 votes over Rep. Ron Paul (4823 to 4671 – it was less than one percent) and it is awful to lose. I hope this does not affect momentum (I was disappointed that former Senator Santorum was gloating over […]

Many know but others do not know that Cong. Paul actually won one county in the Iowa caucuses: Jefferson County. Here’s a great article from the Daily Paul in regard to how his people did it. Many good ideas. How can Paul win Virginia? Through grass roots efforts; I’d get the 10,000 signatures at the […]

There is a report on Ron Paul Forums that the RP campaign has hired former Presidential adviser and historian Doug Wead as an adviser. If true, (I could not confirm it anywhere else) this would be a huge staff pickup for the Paul campaign. Wead called for the 2012 campaign to concentrate on the Ames […]

While we are at the just at the beginning of what is sure to be a heated GOP primary, a new poll released yesterday gives Herman Cain double digit lead, favored by 24%, over other potential GOP candidates. Coming in second is Mike Huckabee with 12%. The Iowa poll is important because, since 1972 the […]

John Ellis at Real Clear Politics makes a wise assessment that I had not considered before: That Sarah Palin is really the front runner for the GOP nomination in 2012: Sarah Palin cranked up her 2012 presidential campaign another notch last week, with the release of a campaign video aimed directly at women. The basic math […]

Justin Raimondo is a strong anti-war libertarian. His site, www.anti-war.com, is useful although I am not sure I entirely agree with him (If I agreed totally with anyone I might have to find somethingto disagree with about that person!) he says interesting and thought-provoking items. Here is Raimondo’s latest column about Cong. Paul. He says […]
