Liberty MavenMore proof Ron Paul can win, if given the chance

A Rasmussen Poll released today shows everyone’s favorite libertarian-leaning Republican Congressman, Ron Paul, in a statistical dead head with Barack Obama for POTUS in 2012. This is already being dismissed by some as more a story about disapproval of Obama than one about Paul’s actual support.
There is certainly truth to that argument, but looking at the half-full glass this should give Paul supporters hope and yet further proof Paul is as viable as any Republican (perhaps more so) in a general election against Obama. The problem for Paul, of course, is the anti-Ron Paul wing of the Republican Party which makes the road difficult, if not impossible, for Paul to get the GOP nomination. Those quixotic, anti-American, extremist gadflies should drop their dislike of the man and embrace the message. It’s a winning message.
These anti-Paul people that are publicly dismissing the poll results are likely seething with worry in private. If the GOP decides to suddenly “get their Ron Paul on”, imagine the potential for liberty.

Looks like you may need to learn more about what isolationism is: http://libertymaven.com/2010/04/14/un-attacking-ron-paul/9416/
Also, did you even read the article? I stated that it was nearly impossible for Paul to get the GOP nomination regardless of what he may do in the General.

On the other hand, he has to get through the Republican Primary. Hmmm, how do you think his isolationist policies will play with the neocon crowd? The Pres is to Paul's right in terms of international affairs, yet Republicans are criticizing him. Please Paul may have vocal support, but realistically has less of a chance than Sarah Palin of getting out of the primary

More about disapproval of Obama? There WAS a category for 'other candidate' they could choose. So if they didn't, they didn't.
Sour grapes everywhere, as far as the eye can see…..

You do realize that it's Republicans saying this, right? go to:

The above was not written by a Liberal.

I didn't see the word "isolationist" on that page anywhere, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least to hear a Republican say it… There are many Republicans who are not conservative, namely interventionist neocons.
