There's another poll up at drudgereport.com about who won the debates last night. Ron Paul is in the lead, with Mittens nipping at his heels. You only get one vote so it may be a fairly accurate. Vote for Freedom!
NOT MY WORK BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS INFORMATIVE:
No matter what the media wants you to believe, It's already a two-man race.
Of the 2,286 total Republican delegates, 1,144 are needed to win nomination.
In five (5) States: Virginia, Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee and Illinois, Gingrich and Santorum are not even on the ballot. That's 564 delegates that they cannot get.
After South Carolina, only 59 delegates have been allocated to the 4 candidates. Mitt Romney has 39 of those. This means Santorum or Gingrich has to pick up 1,144 delegates from the remaining 1,683.
Let's say that Paul only picks up 20% of the total number of delegates--I happen to believe he will do much better--but let's pick 20%. That's 457 delegates for Paul. Add that to the 564 that Newt and Santorum won't have a shot at and now there are 1,021 delegates that Santorum and Gingrich have no chance of getting. Subtract that 1,021 from the total 2,286 and you're left with 1,265 delegates. That means that Gingrich and Santorum, one or the other, have to pick up over 90% of the available delegates to get the nomination. So, essentially, we're down to Paul and Romney.
A vote for Gingrich and Santorum is a wasted vote!
A vote for Paul is not a wasted vote and may well mean that the next President of the United States will be a man that, for the last 30 years, has never broken a promise, compromised his principles or waffled his position on an issue. A man that still believes that the Constitution of the United States is THE law of the land and that the protection of our individual liberties is the primary reason for the Federal government.

It was 220,000 votes so it is invalid....They will promote one with 54 votes that says Romney or Stinkybitch won.

Without a doubt, they always promote the polls they want, but at the same time readers who take the poll can see the results as they come in. Dr Paul nearly always wins the polls I see online, so it clearly shows at least heavy support for him amongst those who use the Internet, where information and opinions are more free than MSM.
Santorum and Gingrich, if they were honest, would drop out of the race.

the "controllers" wouldnt allow that as it would give Paul a significantly better chance than he has now and it would force the debate to be a legitimate forum for discussion of policy beliefs...

Yup, they are spoilers for Paul.
CNN actually gave Paul a decent amount of time this time. I was pleased. He was even able to have a couple of back and forths with the other candidates. He was really able to get his CONSERVATIVE non-interventionist philosophy across. The other Neo-Con Progressives regurgitated their typical narrative.
Good debate in all. I'm curious to see how Paul does in FL. I reckon this is going to go on for a while which is great.

It is the Establisment hard at work. Inside the prison-house we only see the shadows on the walls.
Plato, The Allegory of the Cave

[Socrates] This entire allegory, I said, you may now append, dear Glaucon, to the previous argument; the prison-house is the world of sight, the light of the fire is the sun, and you will not misapprehend me if you interpret the journey upwards to be the ascent of the soul into the intellectual world according to my poor belief, which, at your desire, I have expressed whether rightly or wrongly God knows. But, whether true or false, my opinion is that in the world of knowledge the idea of good appears last of all, and is seen only with an effort; and, when seen, is also inferred to be the universal author of all things beautiful and right, parent of light and of the lord of light in this visible world, and the immediate source of reason and truth in the intellectual; and that this is the power upon which he who would act rationally, either in public or private life must have his eye fixed.

*** NBC/WSJ poll… All three Republicans negative: The most important item in the NBC/WSJ poll was that all three Republican candidates are a net-negative when it comes to favorability. Romney was exposed in two ways in the poll – (1) he has a conservative problem staring him right in the face. That hasn’t changed. Any time base conservatives -- very conservative voters, Tea Partiers, Southerners, feels there’s a viable alternative to Romney, they rally around that person; we’ve seen this phenomenon for months. And (2) The primary has done damage to Romney. He cannot afford a long primary. If this thing goes to June, that would be very problematic. He’s already in a bad position. George W. Bush, John McCain, and Bob Dole were all in primary fights and ALL were a net-POSITIVE at this time in the election cycle. In the past 20 years in the poll, no one who went on to be the major party nominee of either party with a net-negative at this point – except John Kerry, and we all know how that turned out. Clearly, Romney is looking like he’s getting his momentum back, but he has fundamental problems for the general. The primary has done him no good. (Here’s our story on the poll, how the candidate match up with Obama, and the GOP brand problem.)
from one major network that refuses to acknowledge Dr. Paul...
unfuckingbelievable.

Five black helicopters conduct special ops in LA

Video was captured last night of five military helicopters buzzing over downtown LA, conducting what the LAPD has described as a special ops urban warfare drill.
The footage, captured by CBS Los Angeles, shows a huge Black Hawk helicopter hovering over the US bank building along with four other OH-6 choppers, known as “Little Birds”.
CBS reporters noted seeing the Black Hawk conduct a drop off in a nearby park before taking to the sky above LA again.
The helicopters, staged at Dodger Stadium throughout the exercise, were later spotted flying low over the Staples Center as the LA Lakers played inside.
Watch the footage below:
