Now that Ron Paul has reported having $5.3 million cash on hand, I have noticed a lot more positive press. It almost seems like they are pandering to him so that they might line up at the feeding trough when it comes time to spend the money on advertising. Am I being too cyncical about this or do you notice it too?

Now he has the funds to be a contender, has demonstrated support and worthy of their coverage. Just a happy coincidence.

Old axiom: money talks and bullshit walks. You notice they're ignoring Huckabee, right? It's just because he HAS money. They're shocked (and awed). :D
