Quote from AK Forty Seven:
Newt cant properly get this message out due to lack of finances and he has no media on his side.While newt has to pay to get the message out the media will do it for free with Obama by inviting every person who lost their to do TV interviews telling the world how Romney ruined their life
Thats hundreds of millions of dollars in free advertising for Obama to get this message out that Newt cant afford to df course the interviewers will be highly biased against Romney while conducting the interviews .Day after day of the media making Romney look like Lucifer himself....I love it

So you admit that the media is in the bag for Obama? LOL. Hey, at least your honest. Look, Fox news ran hit pieces on Obama 24/7 in 2008. He still won. People do watch these ads but it has little effect on who they vote for.

I think you need to consider the end game, either intended or otherwise. Bottom line, I don't think Paul will get the nomination. Just my opinion, but we'll see how it plays out. However, Gingrich's efforts, along with the efforts of others between now and the general election, will almost certainly fry Romney enough to taste like chicken to those who know a reptile when they see one. And this piece admirably portrayed the ex-governor as a member of that species. I don't think Romney's record in the private sector will appeal to all that many Independents and middle-of-the-road Republicans, let alone Democrats. And he's already not all that much of a favorite among the farther Right.Quote from Epic:
Nope, you missed the same point that Newt is missing. Romney already doesn't get the younger vote. Paul captures an amazing amount of them, but they are already Romney's worst block.
He does very well with better educated voters, but the better educated voters in the GOP are exactly the ones who are sympathetic to all things capitalistic. It is easy for Romney to convince them that Newt is the bad guy here.
In order to have the intended effect this message must reach the blue collar working 35-65 year olds. Their main source of media is prime-time TV. They don't watch late night infomercials or political viral videos that are 30 minutes long. They are greatly influenced by 1 minute commercials during their favorite shows from 6-9pm.

The there is only a certain portion of the population that can be swayed, and it is a relatively small portion. Most people don't understand or even care what private equity companies do.
Quote from AK Forty Seven:
A large portion of the population can be swayed by the media.The media told the people that it was no big deal that Obama had associations with Bill Ayers,Tony Rezko etc
Most people don't understand what private equity companies do but in 2012 the media will tell them and it wont be favorable
Quote from Maverick74:
You don't support private equity but you like Ron Paul? LOL. What are you doing on this website. Private equity is the epitome of free markets. We just had a big liberal come on CNBC and defend Bain Capital and commented that they are probably one of the most respected and highly regard private equity firm in the country. And he is an Obama supporter!!!!!
Quote from Maverick74:
Even Ron Paul is defending Romney on these attacks. RCG, you obviously don't know how capitalism works. You'll get your first look at the "price action" next week on the SC primary. If he doesn't lose ground there, you'll have your answer.
