You make it sound like Mittens didn't go to any Straw Polls and that's why Ron Paul wins all the time.
Which is total BS. Because Mittens did/does go to Straw Polls, I've seen him myself (I go to all these Straw Poll 2-3 day events) and he still can't beat Ron Paul.

You lead a rather sheltered life! :) LOL
It is what comes from being focused only on Ron Paul. You do realize that he has absolutely no chance of becoming president? I actually like the guy - he is honest and straightforward even if I don't agree with some of his views.
Here you go - the Quinnipiac poll which you thought was an online poll:
"Quinnipiac's Polling Institute receives national recognition for its independent surveys of residents throughout the United States. It conducts public opinion polls on politics and public policy as a public service as well as for academic research.[9] The poll has been cited by major news outlets throughout North America and Europe, including The Washington Post,[10] Fox News,[11] USA Today,[12] The New York Times,[13] CNN,[14] and Reuters.[15]
The polling operation began informally in 1988 in conjunction with a marketing class.[9] It became serious in 1994 when the university hired a CBS News analyst to assess the data being gained.[9] It subsequently focused on the Northeastern states, gradually expanding during presidential elections to cover swing states as well.[9] The institute receives funding from the university,

Really, well that's a real well rounded poll. They don't come any more Liberal than the northeast.
Why don't we just poll redneck states. And spit out those poll numbers. LOL

"gradually expanding during presidential elections to cover swing states as well"
Slight problem seeing an entire sentence, ninja? It was clearly stated and since they are doing polls on the 2012 presidential election it seems logical that their polls are focusing on more than the Northeast.

Whateva ... Ron Paul absolutely has a chance.

It clearly doesn't mention southern states, and the whole thing is a rather vague statement.
Why don't you tell us when gradually kicks in.
Why would they leave out half the country. Doesn't sound very fair to me.
Maybe they want to influence the outcome.
If that is all Obama is leading by in a poll taken in the Northeast, he's in big trouble.
