6. In one poll in November, Ron Paul ties the president in Iowa.

Your link doesn't work, but here's a link from Ron Paul's own website: http://www.ronpaul.com/2011-12-04/only-ron-paul-can-beat-obama-in-iowa/

Your headline is misleading. In one poll, Ron Paul is actually tied with the president in Iowa, in another unnamed poll it is a statistical dead heat (+1 Obama). In neither poll mentioned is Ron Paul leading the president in Iowa. I realize you are a big Ron Paul supporter, but you're exaggerating his gravitas.
