Ron Paul 1st in straw polls

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.
