Hmm, there's a disconnect: he won 72% at the NJ State Straw Poll, yet 1% in the fake media poll.

DO NOT trust the straw poll!

Straw polls are not accurate reflections of the electorate, just like polls are not, so please don't brush this aside it is an indicator we have much work to do!

True, but at the same time Ron Paul does have support and the local meetup groups have been very active. I know our group has been out EVERY weekend for the past few months doing on-the-streets activities.
