They also did a funny segment comparing Perry to George W. Bush. It is kinda scary how similar they are... |
Honestly, I think the media - both left wing and right wing media (CNN, FOX, MSNBC) are so scared of Ron Paul that they won't give him air time. He's won many polls, but never makes headlines because of it.
My opinion is that they don't give Ron airtime, because he is one of a rare breed that would bring down typical bi-polar talking points between both parties, as he has actively denounced areas that both parties deal in to create bigger government. He is popular with both liberals and conservatives in a way that would make him a huge threat to the status quo....Thus he gets ignored.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
