Iowa Poll: Newt Sinking, Paul Out Front In First Caucus State
• TPMA new poll out from Public Policy Polling (D) on Sunday night shows Newt Gingrich’s bubble deflating quickly in Iowa, and in his place at the front of the pack? Ron Paul.
The numbers from PPP: Ron Paul 23%, Mitt Romney 20%, Newt Gingrich 14%, 10% each for Rick Santorum, Michele Bachmann, and Rick Perry, 4 % for Jon Huntsman and 2% for Gary Johnson.
The numbers show a precipitous drop in Gingrich’s favorability numbers, with only 36% of Iowa voters now believing he has “strong principles”, suggesting the relentless negative attacks of his rivals — chiefly Ron Paul — are taking a real toll.

It doesn't matter. To the GOP votes for Ron Paul DOES NOT COUNT. Better get this sooner than later.
I imagine TPM is not too happy about this.
Four years ago they were not too polite to Dr. Paul. I could not at first figure out why since he wasn't going to win the GOP nomination and would not be challenging the anointed Hillary or Obama. Then I realized after trashing Gravel and Kucinich, TPM was furious that the antiwar progressives were flocking to the only other outspoken antiwar candidate left: Paul. Didn't those people realize that those were soon to be our military?! To do OUR bidding.
Something like 6.5 million "viewers" watched the last debate. Don't those Iowans pay attention to the post debate TV spin meisters? Ron Paul was the big loser in these debates. His "hard to understand" crazy ideas on bribe free foreign policy and non-intervention have no place in the USA's Imperial plans for 21st Century World Domination. If Paul wins it won't be reported and it won't count! We'll Buchanan his ass!
;-D keep tipping their sacred cows Paul
