The changes Paul is pushing for would end the fascist gravy train for the big banks, and they all do hold places on the boards of these news networks. What better explanation is there?

Hell, Reagan didn't have the free media of today (youtube, internet, blogs, etc.), but Paul has them at his disposal. Is he waiting for something first?

This is one reason some people don't take him as a serious candidate. He won't get out in front and get his face on TV everyday, like Cain is doing. I think Paul could be as popular as Herman Cain is becoming, but he needs to get with his program before the clock strikes midnight. Maybe he should hire yourself and O-Trap to be his media-reps. Y'all seem to be quite capable at carrying his water.

Latest 10/26 in the center seat on Fox News Special Report for 45 minutes. He did well.

He has more important things to do than sit there and listen to O' Reilly scream that we need to go to war with Iran and Pakistan and Syria over everything he says. The issue isn't so much that he doesn't get interviews. It's that when they aren't interviewing anyone and just discussing the race it's just 9-9-9 or Cain won a straw poll or Romney is everyone's choice or Perry's tax plan will get him back in the hunt. Never a mention of Paul unless they are misrepresenting his positions in some way.

Cain has surged in the polls because average voters are watching and hearing him in his own words at the debates. Perry fell off the map because of his debate performance. If there is any argument I think Paul does not always get good time to make his points its at the debates. Its hard to slice the steak up in a few seconds.

Pretty much saying, Oreilly is an idiot and waste of time to go on his show.

majorspark;956932 wrote:I listened to Cain on Hannity today. Cain pretty much set the record straight to this point. He made some very bold statements as too his character. He would be more than happy if the National Restaurant Association black out the names and released the agreement. Cain is not a signatory to the agreement and by law is ignorant to the details of it. As long as Cain is not found to be a liar most primary voters see this for what it is. Cain is leading in the latest Rasmussen poll. Conducted 3 days after this crap came out.

Cain 26%, Romney 23%, Gingrich 14%

As for the Perry campaign being involved I don't know. If I were Cain unless I had concrete proof I would probably back off. You don't want to be falsely accusing someone at the same time you are claiming false accusations are being levied against you. Perry blaming Romney? On what evidence? You'll have a hard time finding it with Romney. He knows how to cover his tracks.
