    I see what you did there....trying to refer that Paul is the same age Lincoln would be today....that's a good joke coming from a 70 year old...

    The difference is that I KNOW it would hurt to be hit by a speeding car, without actually getting hit. Unlike immature youth, one can draw on experience, and when people post ridiculous idealistic nonsense, I can see it as that. I'm all for the idealism, IF you apply some rational thought with it.

    Politically AWARE people know Paul's record of failed bills sponsored. I doubt that 1% of the nation knew who Lincoln or what his record was. IPhone's were coal powered in those days. And no one knew his opponents either.

    Today, clear thinking people know that Paul is 5th in a 4 man race. INCLUDING in Nevada.

    Another "illogical post"...you say you doubt that the nation knew who he was or who his opponents were. Do you realize that there will still other forms of communication back in those days? Things like telegraphs and newspapers? I'm sure word of mouth played a bigger part of getting information spread. Or do you believe people just did an "eenie meenie minie moe" when picking their candidates??

    Also, if Paul is "5th in a 4 man race including Nevada" then you better inform the people taking the polls cause as it stands Paul is 3rd and rising. Romney and Paul have the best chance at winning due to the strong organization in the caucuses...

    I discount the Paulobot family poll. In all the major polls, Paul is 4th, or 5th if you count b.o.

    Logic against Idealism. I realize logic is ugly compared to Idealism. But logic gets the job done.

    Umm...yeaaah.

    The fact remains that you are stating - matter-of-factly - that you are personally aware of the sanity level of numerous people that you have never even met and who you know virtually nothing about.

    That is an illogical position.

    And the continued statement as fact of an illogical position lowers your level of credibility on this particular subject - IMO.

    Just sayin'...

    Are these the same polls that show the Iowa delegates...you know...the ones that haven't been released yet...added to the results? Yeah...the data on those sites can't be trusted.

    And your hopes and DREAMS that Paul will get IOWA delegates are simply that, hopes and dreams. Paul HAS 3 delegates. AKA, LAST!

    Is predictwise a POLL or a gypsy fortune teller?

    Try an actual poll that intelligent people have heard of,
    http://www.realclearpolitics.com/ep.../republican_presidential_nomination-1452.html

    There you will find numerous "RESPECTED" polls and the composite average of those polls.

    But continue to use a crystal ball and a Ouija board if it makes you feel good. I'm imagining that Marvel Comics is your reference library.

    The site I linked gives poll results from 3 different polling groups. Betfair and Intrade ARE popular polls. Your site...realclearpolitics...is one of the ones that shows the fraudulent Iowa Caucus delegates added...when they HAVE NOT BEEN RELEASED YET....therefore their results cannot be accurate. That's not an opinion or a statement...that's a fact. You cannot add presumed data that has yet to be released!

    You gave him someones website...and a uncompleted one at that. He gave you a viable statistical polling website. Let's measure this on the fair meter here....hang on......

    Your facts are lame, inaccurate, and riddled with opinion. RCP is one of the polling standards for this nation. You wont win the debate with that sort of attitude.

    All that Predict site is, is a wordpress operation, with someone posting graphs into it. Who knows where he's getting the data from. Amnesty hour...is it your site?

    The desperation and self delusions of Paulobots is boundless.

    4th in a 4 man race and has no Iowa delegates. IF they had not been released yet, then intelligence, not wistful desperation, says Paul does not have any Iowa delegates either.

    I'm betting that RCP knows terabytes more about it than you do.

    Its like argueing over who won the football game 5 mintues into the game.

    Only 6% of the delegates have been up for grabs so far. There is a fact for you without the need of a stupid poll.

    Just because you say something is inaccurate, doesn't mean it's actually inaccurate. I think we're going to have to cross that bridge somewhere...and I think nows a great time.

    RCP is a standard, that site you are pushing is a wordpress operation by who knows who. Explain to me you side of this so that I may face palm at you once again. I'm still wondering if it's YOUR site, you evaded that part quite nicely didn't you.

    Oh you know, your entire argument based on a nobody site with no credibility. :bored:

    Ok...so you are saying a site that shows a prediction of data...that has yet to be released and can in no way know what the actual results are going to be...does not mean it's actually inaccurate??

    Talk about a facepalm...

    And to claify...no it's not my site...

    WOW. You can evade people so well. Are you a career politician? Your like a professional evader. If I ever want to add BS in my debate, man I'm coming to you for advice.

    Don't facepalm, figure it out. Your the one pushing a site that isn't credible against a site that is a standard. Not accurrate? Boo hoo, go tell that to the Pollsters. Maybe the reason it hasn't been released on your sham of a poll site is because RCP and other credible pollsters haven't released the data to arm chair politicians like yourself.

    If you can actually reply, please do. If your going to keep up you pathetic "but, but, but" routine I'm leaving and allowing someone else to have their kicks with you.

    I saw that edit, just to clarify. You still evaded it twice originally.

    What exactly am I evading? lol. I answered your questions.

    So you admit...you have no response other than a baseless attack to defend your position that you don't know why it reports false data.

    Peace bro. Enjoy evading someone else. You haven't answered (*)(*)(*)(*), in fact you've been running around in circles the entire debate. You still haven't clarified why your comparing RCP with a nobody site and declaring RCP to be false....like your some expert. Save it though I'm done with your spam.

    Baseless? Sir....you are as deluded as your are dumb. Take that as a compliment because you wont get anything else from me. Someone else can deal with you and your "expert knowledge" of the topic ROFLMAO

    My question...
    "Ok...so you are saying a site that shows a prediction of data...that has yet to be released and can in no way know what the actual results are going to be...does not mean it's actually inaccurate??"

    not as delusional as the ones who think replacing Obama with Romney or Gingrich will change something.

    I know, I know, ......this time it's different.
    Talk about insanity. An old, experienced man should have learned that lesson by now.

    Its like a battered spouse, the longer they stay with that abuseive person, the more they convince themselves that they get beaten cause they truely love them. It takes the abusive spouse almost killing them before they realize how bad it really has become.
