I noticed you haven't said anything yet, so I figured I would go ahead and pipe up.

You said several times about how Chris Peden was knocking them dead, and how he was 10% ahead of Paul.

Well the results are in:

Ron Paul 70.2%
All others 29.8%

um, yeah....Peden with little funding or organization got 30% of the vote against an incumbent congressmen who brings home the PORK and also an incumbent who in the mother of hypocritical ironies, REFUSED TO DEBATE HIM.

30%, imagine what he or someone else could do in 2 years with actual organization and fund raising, if they target him.

also from this district, their choice for GOP president:

from his own district.


this Peden guy did better with little money or orginization than Paul could do with tons of money on the presidential side....but keep pimping your racist and conspiratorial cult leader. its amusing.

btw, your "All Others", is just one person.

have a fruitcake to celebrate:

Well...at least we still have at least 1 voice of reason in the House and a someone to continue to school Bernake in economics...I bet he sent Peden a donation

Peden raised over $1,000,000 and you call that hardly funded?

You're just bitter that the neocon exterminator was re-elected by a landslide.

2 lies in 2 sentences, par for the course for a Paul supporter.

Peden Raised $223K and only spent $116k

Paul raised more than double that and spent over $500K, around 5 times more than Peden, according to the latest data.....and Paul had to refuse to debate him, which is hilarious.

darn facts.

also, Paul is no "neocon" exterminator, can't think of a single thing he's accomplished in that arena other than hurl slurs and look like an old fool.

Ron who?

The "neocon exterminator" is Tom Delay, who does own a exterminating business in Fort Bend County. But he wasn't on the ballot.
