I kind of disagree with the gold standard personally, there are more problems with it than any supporter will admit, but it's certainly better than just running the money presses at will.

i'd love to get involved, but i have to focus on my own campaign for 2008.

though it'd be awesome to get his endorsement ... maybe i should try to get involved.

Ron Paul Wins MSNBC Debate Poll
Ron Paul steps into national spotlight

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
May 4, 2007

ARLINGTON, VA – Congressman Ron Paul finished first in the MSNBC poll following the GOP primary debate last night held at the Reagan Library in Simi Valley, California. Dr. Paul received 43 percent, beating the second-place finisher by five points, and crushing the rest of the field.

"Last night, Americans met Ron Paul and loved what they heard," said Ron Paul 2008 campaign chairman Kent Snyder. "Dr. Paul's message of freedom and limited government resonates with Republicans hungry for a return to their party’s core values."

"Ron Paul is the only true conservative in the GOP race. Americans saw that last night," continued Snyder. "The campaign looks forward to further debates and opportunities so even more Americans will discover Dr. Paul's message of freedom, peace and prosperity."

I thought Romney was great. I would call it 1) Paul 2) Romney 3) the rest with McCain near last.

They were saying mostly bad things about them though, even though they were getting press on MSNBC the after-show was all bad press for them. So that might actually help Paul right now.

it is just fucking annoying. They keep allowing McCain, Guilliani, and Romney to follow up EVERY question.

Not even that it slighted paul, it slighted all the other candidates.
