    Lieberman needs to go


    Maybe the Libertarians will put him on their ticket again.

    Right on, Go Ron! Did anyone see him on the Daily Show last night? My bet is he plays the GOP throughout the prelims so he can get in all the debates, then at the 11th hour runs as a third party candidate in the general election.

    I did. Well, it was tronight for me.

    He seemed quite intelligent, and to have some principles, many of which made sense.

    I infer from this that he has no chance at all?

    Right. In all actuality the most we can reasonably hope for is that he gains enough traction to effect the race by influencing the other candidates. Although my dream is of a vast public outcry and a sweeping Ron Paul acclamation by the masses in November.. chances of happening? I dunno, his odds were recently improved to 100 to 1.

    Well, at the moment he's got my vote. If I had one. I guess the UK national resident in the UK demographic isn't top of his hit list, but it's something.

    Ron Paul Really 3% Higher in the Polls Says Analyst

    Tue Jun 5, 3:01 AM ET

    Based on the demographic information of the typical Ron Paul supporter, analyst claims that Ron Paul's support could be 3% higher than actually polled.
    ADVERTISEMENT

    Washington DC (PRWEB) June 5, 2007 -- The latest polls show that Ron Paul is barely registering any kind of support but an analyst from USAElectionPolls.com offers a different perspective. Proloy explains that because Ron Paul's base is younger; they may not be correctly represented in the polls.

    The web site did not find a big disparity between the percentages of the youth that are likely to vote and those that are polled but as Proloy says "It is not sufficient enough to match up percentages. There is a large number of students away from home in college, many youth do not use a landline, and many voters that were previously disenfranchised with the political process that are likely to flock to Ron Paul."

    The web site suggest that as interest in the 2008 election grows and voters go to the Internet, Ron Paul will hold the advantage because of his large amount of Internet support.

    USAElectionPolls.com is a centralized location for all of the latest national and state polls and is one of the most visited websites of its kind according to Quantcast Internet ratings.

    Not sure I understand what you are saying. He was the 1988 Libertarian candidate, got 430K votes.
    What has he to do with Ron Paul or the current Libertarian party? I though you mistook the names , you know Liber this and Liber that.

    Now I understand what your talking about. I thought you meant maybe they would put Lieberman on their ticket.

    If Ron Paul were to run as a Libertarian I would Imagine he would draw a decent number of votes. But which party would he hurt worse?

    Theres an awful lot of disgusted conservatives out there, and anything is better than Hillary.

    I think if Paul played his ads right, he could draw on a large number of Democrat AND Republican votes. Play the great uniter and all that.

    He'll do better this time then he did as the Libertatian candidate.

    Money is his problem

    His 650k warchest isnt going to get him much air time.
    There are few things more annoying than some idiot who has never done anything trying to say definitively how something should be done.
