This straw poll will be a close race between Bachmann & Ron Paul.

I wonder if this was because of the debate, or if these numbers are from before it occurred?

I'm concerned about one particular comment made which I've already seen media on, but I'll see how it goes.

What? Paul's admission that he believes marriage should be between a man and a woman?

This one?

Apart from the title, the article seems mostly accurate and positive for Dr. Paul, although it misses Dr. Paul's rebuttal to Santorum that we've been involved in Iran's internal affairs since 1953.

I read that article too. Didn't seem to impressed.
