WTF??? Herman Cain wins GOP Florida straw poll; Rick Perry in second place, RON PAUL 5th????
“Tonight’s winner is Herman Cain,” Florida Gov. Rick Scott announced. “It shows you something, the road to the White House come through Florida, and it pays to spend time here.”

He received 37 percent of the more than 2,600 votes cast.

The two national frontrunners — Mr. Perry and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney — placed second and third. Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, meanwhile, landed in fourth place; Rep. Ron Paul of Texas landed in fifth place; and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, sixth. Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann finished last.

poll results:

Herman Cain, 37.1%
Rick Perry, 15.4%
Mitt Romney, 14.0%
Rick Santorum, 10.9%
Ron Paul, 10.4%
Newt Gingrich, 8.4%
Jon Huntsman, 2.3%
Michele Bachmann, 1.5%

I'm a huge Ron Paul supporter, but unfortunately most people don't understand him. All the retirees in FL probably think he's going to cut off their SS, which he isn't.

Of course, you say this but ignore that Ron Paul won the California Straw Poll just last week. Again, you are just another sheep who gets his opinions from the media.

And this raises the point that the media will believe straw polls are important as long as Ron Paul does not win them.

Cain won because he invested heavily into this event. So did Perry and he lost in a big way....that's the real story here.

The Paul campaign put zero money and effort in and still got 10%.

That was 833 ballots, this one in Florida was 2600. The higher the number of votes, the closer the results will be to national poll figures. Only way to skew those is with massive organization like they had in Ames. Ron Paul supporters don't do fucking shit but spend their time online. Tring to get one to make cold calls or go door to door with fliers is pointless because they're just too fucking lazy to really get involved with the political system (which most of them despise anyway).

well that's the thing isn't it

people arent ready for the radical conservative policies ron paul is proposing.

sure he'll win a straw poll in a place like california, since the people there are much more open to that kind of policy, but come florida.. forget it. and seems like they'll go for the black man, again.

Re: WTF??? Herman Cain wins GOP Florida straw poll; Rick Perry in second place, RON PAUL 5th????
Yes, I really believe that the retired white Republicans voted en masse for the only black candidate. America is truly turning into a nationwide reality show. Maybe we can have what the idiocracy really wants- two black men squaring off against each other in the ultimate "choice" for president.

No way does this inarticulate buffoon get that kind of support. I do not believe it, Sam I Am. What an attractive guy this is; ebonics-tinged voice, Federal Reserve affiliation, pizza background. How can we not vote for him? Ron Paul's support dwarfs this clown's. Any "poll" that claims otherwise is establishemnt hogwash.

Bad enough that they had to register and pay months ago, but
800 of those paid attendees were not allowed to vote.

He isn't too old. How old someone actually is has to do with their overall health, if they exercise and have through out life, if they have a career and interests, new challenges, lots of family and friends that are in their lives, and many more other factors.

Ron Paul would come in at about 50 on that scale.

He exercises an hour a day, swims, bikes 20 miles at a time in Houston heat, and would probably run circles around you, physically and mentally. He led a two mile march to the Fed, and led it two miles back to the start point.

Smart people don't find him old at all. We find him to be energetic, brilliant, experienced, and the only man for the job.

See, the problem here is that you are making up what your saying. You don't know anything about his policies, and haven't listened to the debates.

For those currently on Soc. Sec., and those who have been paying into it, their Soc. Sec. is safe. As Ron Paul said, they paid into it and it belongs to them.
Those just entering the work force will have the ability to Opt Out of the system if they choose to do so.

You aren't going to pull the wool over anyone's eyes who supports Ron Paul. Might as well give it up.

I am not making up anything.
I can count and do math
really well.

Social Security only works
if there are people contributing
from all ages in the work force.
take out the young from contributing
and Social Security goes bankrupt
within 2 years. that's just math.
or maybe that Ron Paul math from
PA is different than mine.

letting the young opt out will
only kill it much faster and leave
seniors SOL down the line in 2 years.
