26. Well after covering the Ron Paul Rally

May 2012

last friday for the Magazine... come November, and this was the consensus among the media gaggle after plenty of interviews, they are either staying home... or writing Ron in...

No serious. I am as serious as a heart attack.

And I have rarely seen so many reporters reach the same conclusion after two hours of interviews. Nor have I rarely seen so many reporters actually shaking heads as we all realized the same thing.

They had ONE real gripe though... I will give them that one. Media has done a pretty poor job of covering Ron, especially early on when he did well in polls. But hey, media does not bother with trouble makers, regardless of who they are. Yeah that includes Dean, Edwards and Occupy.
