DES MOINES, Iowa, Aug. 5 A new poll of those likely to vote in the Iowa presidential caucus show Democrats are more satisfied with their choices than Republicans.

The ABC/Washington Post poll released Sunday showed 53 percent of Democrats polled said they were "very satisfied" with their choices versus 19 percent of Republicans polled saying they were "very satisfied."

In the poll, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney led his GOP rivals in overall support and ratings of personal attributes, but those polled said they wanted more Republican choices in January's caucus.

Of those polled, 26 percent backed Romney, 14 percent backed former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and 13 percent backed former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson, who has yet to announce.

Sen. John McCain of Arizona and Mike Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas, each had 8 percent support.

Ron Paul is the Only Valid Candidate
By: Israeli Mossad Agent , Sun, 19 Aug 2007 08:51:27 GMT

When you live in a Brave New World you can expect the media to rewrite the news and substitute the truth for lies.
Its well known that the CIA employs journalists on every major media outlet. They are just doing they're jobs and mass producing slanted propaganda and half truths to feed to the unwitting and unsuspecting masses.
For people who don't read books, magazines or the newspaper, the visual media of television is the only source for information. Look what happened when we voted the repugnanticans out of their offices. Nothing. The media has been manufacturing propaganda since they shot JFK and got embroiled in Vietnam due to an event that never happened,namely The Gulf of Tonkin event. The same bastards are in power now that were in power then, the Texas Oil Nazis.


Ron Paul Won

ABC is lying... Ron Paul won the debate. ABC is scum.


Ron Paul wins ABC debate
By: Bill O. Rights , Mon, 06 Aug 2007 17:55:34 GMT

Ron Paul won the debate according to ABC’s own poll and Drudge Report’s poll.

Ron Paul places 1st or 2nd in every straw poll, debate, and active participation survey. Including this ABC debate!

Ron Paul is 1st on YouTube, Meetup, MySpace, Technorati, Alexa, Clickz, Google, etc. The old media is just too slow to realize what is happening.

Dr. Ron Paul has the most contributions from U.S. military personnel and veterans above all other candidates. So support the troops and vote Ron Paul!

A big problem with our electoral processes is that the media generally supports the candidates with the most money. Those are the worst candidates because they are owned by special interest and lobbyists.

Ron Paul is the only major candidate not owned by military-industrial-complex, corporations, special interest, lobbyists, etc. Fix the system and vote Ron Paul. And tell everyone you know. Now is the time to set ourselves free.

Dr. Ron Paul is the man of integrity and courage that America needs at this time.

Where do you people get these polls? In the ABC poll about who won the debate Ron Paul had 58% of the votes, with the rest divided amongst the rest of the 7 candidates, 2 who weren't there, and a line that said I'm voting democratic. Your poll is apparently way off from reality.
