It was an end of the year round up thing. They said Fred Thompson had the worst, and Ron Paul had the best because of the grassroots and fund raising aspects. Hopefully somebody got it.

sweet... kind of unexpected
Yeah, saw that Live! Quite surprising, actually. Thought they would say Clinton or something (or maybe it was just among the Republicans..can't remember.)
Hopefully they'll replay it again.

Thompson the worst? He was half asleep at the wheel and got in too late, but clearly the Ghoul ran the worst campaign in political history.

Ghouliani absolutely ran the Worst campaign, especially with all the attorney money into the campaign.
then again, how long can you run on 9/11 and attack everyone in the world because we're the Freedom country. FOOL
I guess this is a little restitution for CNN's CIA operative Anderson Cooper's hideous sabotage moderation at the Reagan Library GOP debate.

So they say he had the best campaign in spite of completely ignoring him.

As a matter of fact, the only 2 that came out for Rp even vaguely (Tucker Carlson, Glen Beck)are now cancelled.

It's not a conspiracy... Tucker was canceled because he had low ratings while Glenn Beck chose to leave because of an offer from Fox News.

Actually news organizations are only conspiracy. Talking points in memos from the ownership, keeping their ad customers happy. blah blah. It's a made to sway your opinion on events that lead you to purchase. Channel 9 News here in Baton Rouge is a segmented infomercial.

He had the best campaign because he made it so durn hard to ignore him. They had to try really really hard.

If Ron Paul had the best campaign of 2008 then why did they have their bitch Anderson Cooper pull that shit during the last debate? This is just propaganda, plain and simple. Like FAUX News, CNN's being nice to Paul to try and gain back all the credibility they lost. Fuck them though. The only trustworthy thing produced by the MSM are weather reports, and even those are suspect. lol
CNN was better to Paul than MSNBC and FOX

Actually MSNBC you could argue was the worst of those three. The only shows he got on there were Tucker and Morning Joe. Morning Joe usually bashed him too, you guys remember them bringing up Lincoln and some douche bag says "didn't you say he was a crackpot".

I disagree with this only because I saw the piece. It was such a short piece that I think the producers kind of let the staff do whatever they wanted to. They all probably agreed that Ron Paul had a much more successful campaign than expected so they decided to give him honors in the 45 second long piece.
Basically, it was way too short to have any of the strategy behind it that you're suggesting.
As far as the youtube goes, I still have it on my DVR, but I don't have the hardware to record it on my computer, if anybody near Boone, NC wants to let me borrow their capture card or camera I could do something. Otherwise, if no one puts up a tube in a week, I can at least get you guys the audio.

Yeah, what a shame somebody didn't do their job to make the campign even more successful (getting Dr. Paul the nomination at least). Cough, cough, CNN and company I'm talking to you.

Has Lou Dobbs (Mr. Independent) ever mention Ron Paul's name? I can't remember one piece.
Then you have that Legal Council/Analyst Jeff Toobin... that called Ron Paul after the SC debate: " The Crazy Uncle that lives up in your attic that you don't want anyone to meet" plus the " This whole North American Super Highway/TTC is a farce.
Of course we know what the $4 Million man AC360 did to Ron...
Restitution time by CNN? Those at Colluding News Network should just stick with their Masters memo agenda.
CNN, FAUX, MSNBC... great job @ SABOTAGE!

something we all knew then and now. funny how cnn never mentioned or got behind this statement when it was actually happening. if he had the best according to them, then why didnt they cover him more? jus so hypocritical of a statement from them.

gave him a total of about 6-7 minutes, cut him off on one of his answers to the point you could tell ron was just shocked and then pissed (ron did a double take and then looked like he had just been shot), cooper lied about getting back to him on one issue, most all questions went to romney and mccain, romney and mccain at one point talked for 15 minutes plus straight, while paul, and huck to some extend, was rush when he finally did get to speak, and something else i noticed was from the production side of thigs in the fact that paul wasnt even shown in most of the debate as the camera men made sure not to show him in a very obvious way. even in wide shots that showed the whole panel, the camera angle was almost always in a way that had hucks head covering up pauls face and or entire body.

happen to agree with you on that. If he had the best campaign, and the most grassroots, which he did, he would have won. The problem is that the media jacked this one, with the help of diebold, in the early states. Nationally Ron Paul was probably the strongest despite the media, we could only tell by the online excitement, all else is fabrication and lies, nobody, and nothing will change my mind on this.

i think i know what you mean. i myself after looking back at how things played out, from the msm, i really think paul won super tuesday in most places. there were to many stories of vote fraud, and the numbers just didnt add up no matter how much the media tried.
also this was the first election ive ever saw where (and this happened on every station) the percentage of votes for each candidate barely even changed from 1-2% reporting to the final 90+% totals, and this was from every state.
i really believe paul won, but was cheated.

If you can get it on a DVD disk, it can be isolated to a mpeg file, so upload that file to mediafire or rapidshare and share the url with somebody who can convert it.

I.E. The best and worst of 2008.
I think they were more impressed with the grassroots campaign.

http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0812/31/se.01.html
FOREMAN: Best campaign by a non-winning Republican, Ron Paul.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: He's a ninja and I think he's going to sneak on in. He's got (INAUDIBLE) the skills like that. He's going to ...
FOREMAN (on camera): Really?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: ... run across the street.
FOREMAN: Have you seen him do that?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: All the time.
CILLIZZA: He was raising millions of dollars over the Internet for a campaign that by and large seemed quixotic.
VELSHI: Whenever he'd come on CNN, our phones and our e-mails would light up.
HILTON: I think people were excited about Ron Paul this year not necessarily because of him but because of what he stood for, which was an alternative, something different. America is tired of a two-party system. I know I am.

Well I don't know about anybody else, but the biggest loser this year was the media itself. They did worse than Sam Brownback. CNN, MSN, Fox, they're all a bunch of fucking lying losers. And my life has improved dramatically from cutting them off. I can't stand to watch any of them. The catalyst for me was how they treated Ron, but also incorporates the way they sensationalize non-political stories and peddle mind control.
They lost me for life. I think the fact that there is no youtube is a good sign. Maybe less people give a shit about tuning in to their bullshit.
