I was wondering how many fox debates have now had Ron Paul as a top 3 winner?
How many times have the announcers NO said "this cant be true", "this must be some kind of scam or fraud"?

All of them so far.
And Hannity's whining about a fixed poll is such BS. When you text who you think won the debate, Fox News sends a text back thanking you for the vote.
Thus Fox knows who has voted (by their phone number) and who has voted more than once and could eliminate the additional votes from the same # from their poll.
Obviously the case with Ron Paul is that more young people (who know how to text) are voting for him and the old fogeys who can barely operate a TV remote, much less figure out a complex cell phone are supporting Giuliani, Romney, and Thompson.

1)you say he got booed, yeah he didn't have as many seats in the debate thru ticket sales as compared to Guiliani and romney. But the supporters still came out louder than the nay-sayers.
2) The text debate shows him winning, yeah young people use text but most everybody does today more so than landlines which is how the other polls are conducted. I know not one person who owns a landline but not one without a cell.
So who are we to believe the Cells or the landlines?
How about the straw polls which also show Ron Paul winning? Are they innaccurate too?
How about this
Ron Paul wins straw polls (1) and text polls (2)
Others win traditional lanline polls (1)
2 to 1 Ron Paul wins, young people the future of America want Ron Paul. The text polls and straw polls are harder to manipulate because one text=1 vote and you cannot make sure your polling participants come from a certain group of people by searching demographics before you poll.
Text polling is probably the most accurate polling done today especially compared to the polls conducted on landlines...who has a landlines anymore???

Here is a list of real live actual Presidential candidate supporters:

The Numbers Don't Lie!!!
Ron Paul may be behind in fund raising, but in sheer numbers of avid supporters, this list clearly shows he is "WAY" ahead of the pack!
I would say at this point each person, on the above list, would represent much more than one vote because these meet-up members are actively spreading the word's about their own candidates by personal contact.
Here are some other poll results:

No Scam, No Fraud, Ron Paul Is Winning!!!
Thank you.

The results from professional pollsters found Romney the winner. Fox has a less scientific poll, and is considered to be a straw poll. MR

Since the numbers are skewed and most people don't vote, we will never know. There is no chance that Paul won that last debate! BTW, no other candidate was booed!
Paul's supporters are typically very young and use cell phones/text messaging. The average vote doesn't. That's the reason Paul had the highest numbers.

People who are brainwashed into thinking that the other candidates are real Conservatives will boo.
Anybody who knows their politics knows that the Republican party of today is far from the party of the past.
Ron Paul is the true conservative, and even though he may not win because the sheep are too busy bah-ing to know the truth, that doesn't mean that he isn't the best candidate for the job.

You can rest assured that "media matters" & "the dailyKos" are on the text message bandwagon for r.paul. You liberals will find out the truth when the votes really count , and r. paul is not even on the ballot !

I believe every time he has finished in top 5, and that sounds like Fox news they can't believe the truth, because they don't know the difference between the truth and a lie.

I don't know, and I don't know, but I do know that Sean Hannity looks like a fool. You can't vote twice, unless you have different cell phones... I don't think every RP supporter has access to more than 1.5 phones on average. Even halving his wins, he comes up very respectably, unlike the treatment he receives.

That is like a fifth-string, senior high-school receiver catching four passes in a Tuesday afternoon scrub scrimmage with the 9th Grade team. It means absolutely nothing.
