Re: Fox News Ignores and Pulls Post Debate Poll That Ron Paul Wins

I agree that Fox is largely a bunch of crackpots, but name-calling does not serve much. Their shenanigans -- along with the Republican Establishment -- have been going on for years. Apparently NOTHING is worse than a Politician that actually follows-through with the campaign rhetoric the party has espoused for decades.

Fox News Ignores and Pulls Post Debate Poll That Ron Paul Wins

Posted by Wake Up 1776 at 12:18 AM

The Fox News commentator tells everyone who just got done watching the Republican Presidential debate in Iowa to go on FoxNews.com and vote.  So then Hannity comes on and brings his hired propagandist Frank Luntz and then interviews several candidates except Ron Paul.  I don't even remember Hannity showing a video clip of Ron Paul during the entire show.

The announcement of the poll results was supposed to be done during the hour long Hannity post-debate show.  The entire show was a propaganda piece saying nice things about everyone but Ron Paul.

Well, it turns out Ron Paul won the FoxNews.com poll handily.  He won it by several thousand votes.  Here is a screenshot and a breakdown of the poll results shortly after 12 am ET (after Hannity's show concluded).

1st Place: Paul with 7,796 votes

2nd Place:  Gingrich with 4,751 votes

3rd Place:  Cain with 2,425 votes

4th Place:  Romney (the supposed front-runner) with 1,870 votes

5th Place:  Bachmann (the other so-called front-runner) with 1,818 votes

6th Place:  Santorum with 835 votes

7th Place:  Huntsman with 303 votes

Last Place:  Pawlenty with 250 votes

Here is a state breakdown of the poll.  Ron Paul takes almost every state in the union except Utah, Wyoming, Arizona, Georgia, and Mississippi.

Shortly after Hannity's show, Fox News pulled the poll off their website:

It was somewhere in the yellow area before it was pulled down.

So what does this mean?  This means that Ron Paul got over 7,000 votes in less than an hour from all 50 states from an audience that is mostly conservative that watched Fox News.  It also shows that he almost doubled the 2nd place contender's votes.  It also shows he won Iowa -- the main purpose for the Iowa debate and an early primary state.  It shows that Fox News is scared and that Frank Luntz is a liar.  It shows that Ron Paul has a real good shot at winning this election.
