  1. Power should always go to someone who don't want it.

  2. Where speech is controlled, the talk is all Romney.

    Where speech is free, the talk is Ron Paul.

    This is a very good thing.

  3. Ron Paul even has the most media mentions this week. Of course most of those mentions are negative but the people are seeing through it.

  4. A Ron Paul win in Iowa will discredit Iowa, or will it discredit the mainstream media? I think the latter.

  6. Funny how the candidate that the media has constantly discounted and despised is the one who is about to win Iowa in a landslide. The twitter/facebook phenomenon is a strong indicator of excitement and nobody has created as much excitement as Ron Paul. Nobody cares what the Mainstream Media has to say anymore.
