The corrupt powers that be will try to entrap Ron Paul on his position on the war on (some) drugs and tout him as a nutnag who wants to legalize drugs for our children to use.

But it will backfire.

Many of the candidates will get stuck on economic technical jargon and lose half the audience. Ron Paul will connect emotionally to the viewers and be able to discuss economics in a meaningful way to the average voter or CNBC viewer.

Imagine the blank-faced stare on Julie Annie's face if someone asks him to name an economist.

"ERrrrrr.... The Yankees won last night, right? <crickets> 9/11! <applause>"

well out of most of the msm NBC MSNBC/CNBC seem to be the most supportive of Paul. it wont be another Fox Debate, but I hope it sticks to economics. That is one of the major things that won me over on Paul. I just dont think most people understand economics. I just worry he can explain enough in 30-60seconds. I feel he will do alright.

You guys will have to tell me how it went.

I am going to see Australian Pink Floyd tonight with my son.

For the third time.

They'll focus on Fred Thompson, the new guy.

It will be Fred, Fred, and more Fred. Ron will hardly get any speaking time and more than likely be placed in the back way out of view. Oh and don't forget Huck who gets more pub than anybody and its allways he's so good and he's this and he's that.

I agree, it will probably be the Fred Show. But that could be ok -- from what I read, Fred is a terrible instantaneous speaker. Do you think they will give him the questions before hand so he can learn his lines............?

What does Fred know about economics?

He amassed enough serious coin to land a hot young wifey?
