    You cant really win either way. Give it to Cali and people would say that it would influence the voters to much.

    I'm curious is this a long standing issue people have with Iowa being first or is this all due to Paul possibly winning the state?

    I first heard the criticism of the Iowa Caucus on Chris Matthews Hardball, and thought it was rather strange, kind of like out of left field so to speak. Guess since Herman Cain dropped out, and Newt Gingrich is laying low in Iowa, the only candidate is Mitt Romney., which means nothing interesting happening.

    So rather than discuss anything that might shine any light on Ron Paul, or discuss something like the NDAA striping 4th amendment, the media apparently needed to flash a red herring controversy, which they knew somebody like a SkullKrusher would probably unwittingly pass along.

    The recent hate is due to the fact that Ron Paul is doing so well there. As much as I dislike the guy, the media's treatment of him is hilariously biased. It just ignores him and plays down any success.

    Or we could just do the primaries at the same time. That would be the only fair way. It's not fair that certain states get to front load.

    Where IS Iowa, anyway.....lol.

    Funny, with it looking like Ron Paul was/is gonna take Iowa since a few days ago....now Iowa is irrelevent. And even funnier, Ron Paul...never heard him bashed - ever - in the mainstream media...until he started getting some real support this time around. Ron Paul has always been consistent in his constitutional principles. Now allofasudden he's a BAD guy.

    Yes, Virginia, there IS a Republican establishment and it doesn't like being challenged within the party. What a bunch of moochers... they went right along with the dems porking things up, and THEY got us in this broke-ass mess too.
    The only thing they have going for them is they're not socialists and Marxists like most of the Dem establishment IS.

    ROFL....ya can't make this stuff up, folks.
