It occures to me that this could be a contributing factor to the discrepency between "national polls" and everything else.

I know a large number of people my age, 27, and younger don't have home phones any more, we just use our cell phones for everything. Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

Good question... I don't have a cell phone but still voted over the Internet with text messaging. Can cell phones be put on the Do not call list within states?

No they do not. That has been the main point the entire time. This is why RP is low in the polls.

i thought they did, but didn't call anyone that didn't vote in the last election, that wasn't a registered republican before the last 6 months, and some other stuff. probably depends who is doing the survey whether they have cells on their call list.

definately real world support is higher for paul than these polls indicate.
