There is nothing really bigger today in politics, election 2008. Ron Paul must have enjoyed this weekend immensely winning two straw polls. Ron Paul received 208 votes (73%) during the Strafford County, New Hampshire straw poll. During the Alabama straw poll conducted by the West Alabama Republican Assembly Ron Paul received 216 votes (81.2%) While Ron Paul is clearly not ahead in national polls; his supporters are obviously the most loyal. We will certainly be watching Ron Paul closely in the coming months.
