RON PAUL to be on MEET THE PRESS this sunday

[Aratus]

the BTO moneybomb is ongoing, Libya is in the headlines again,
and the Ohio http://www.swingstatestrawpoll.com/ is on SATURDAY!
his trillion dollar budget cuts may be talked about, let alone the debates!

[pauliticalfan]

For real? I hope it's in the studio, and not over Skype or something LOL. MTP is usually pretty tough, so I hope Ron's ready.

[bb_dg]

Ahh yes, that is some good news. Has he been on meet the press since the last election? Before Tim Russert died?

[Aratus]

i trust it is not a repeat
i went to the website
after seeing a tv commercial

[sailingaway]

good

[Fermli]

yes, he will be on.

YaHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

I'm sick of seeing Cain on all over the place. It's about time.

[Lucille]

This money bomb had better be HUGE then! Dig deep, peeps!

[Sola_Fide]

Meet The Press used to he important but I don't think anybody really watches it anymore, do they?

[Aratus]

do not ignor the swingstate straw poll at OSU this saturday! if he's top three or better
he can EASILY bring up LA + VVS again! this interview could 100% shatter the blackout!

[Cowlesy]

Ron's been on Meet the Press before. Him and Russert got into the 19th century and I recall Ron name-dropping Lysander Spooner. Certainly not a POTUS candidate interview. My guess is David Gregory will try and beat him up like Russert did.

It is one of the few show my hub watches, Sometimes i watch it with him i listened to Cain with him last Sunday we both got mad and turned off the set

[pacelli]

How much you wanna donate to the campaign that they bring up the bullshit newsletters again?

Maxed out, but I'll bet another 500 to RevPAC

[Napolitanic Wars]

I think you're on to something. I think we should have a traditional pre-interview mini-bomb ready and waiting...IF they treat him unfairly. That way, it'll be a win-win no matter what happens! It would certainly make me feel better about him going on these shows.

[CavortingChicken]

oh yea and they used such a great photo of Ron on their website.....

No kidding. No way in the world should Ron go on that show. They are the worst of the worst.

[bunklocoempire]

From the MTP site:
Our Meet The Candidates series continues with Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul. Can the Texas congressman break out of the pack? Where does he stand on the important issues facing our country?


Lol!

I clicked on their link to the MTP and a "MTP Take Two" Gingrich auto vid starts playing. A sign of things to come?

After the Paul episode airs, I wonder if Paul will get a "MTP Take Two" auto vid.

My guess is David Gregory will try and beat him up like Russert did.Yeah, I expect him to get the same treatment Cain got.

[low preference guy]

My guess is David Gregory will try and beat him up like Russert did.

Gregory's problem might be that he is nowhere near as capable as Tim.

[freejack]

No worries people. Ron is at the top of his game. He will own them with his power of consistency.

All of the non-cable people watch it.

Guys, you wanna be POTUS, this is one of the rites of passage. It is an extremely influential program, and will, for good or ill, generate all types of free media for the campaign next week.

So, Dr. Paul, make sure you eat your Wheaties, sir...

Eat your Wheaties and go kick ass like you did in Vegas. Do nothing but push your new plan and bring up how everyone else supported TARP, how 999 sucks, how Romney is a moron, and Perry just looks like an engorged penis.

It's going to be tough. But a great opportunity at the same time to reach huge viewers.
Do some prep! Keep composure no matter what.

[JohnGalt1225]

It'll be tough but he'll do great.

No doubt!

Definitely he's got it, he's been playing this game longer than most of us have been alive! My "It's a Trap" message is for the rest of us. Don't expect a game of pitch-and-toss - expect a duel. It won't be friendly, but truth will out!

[wgadget]

Always remember that the one-on-one format is where Ron is most formidable.

Piece-a-cake.

[musicmax]

I've gotten a secret advance copy of MTP's questions:

1. Congressman, if you're really a doctor, why did you start chanting "LET HIM DIE" at a recent debate?

2. Congressman, now that Osama Bin Laden is dead, who provides your marching orders?

3. Congressman, can you please explain how you will protect America from Iran's 500 nuclear weapons with your fake eyebrows?

4. Congressman, please rank the following by the amount of hatred you harbor for each: women, children, Jews, Blacks.

5. Congressman, you're 76 years old - isn't it time for you to just die?

Then why didn't he go on Bill O's show to knock it out of park?
Prep is the key.

[realtonygoodwin]

I am glad to see this. Can't avoid the tough ones. That would be Palin's style.

Well, in the case of BillO, there is no chance for the interviewee to get a word in edge-wise. Why even bother?

[TroySmith]

This is good as it will hit the 45+ age range that are currently swaying between Paul/Romney/Cain/Perry.

[AdamT]

Please call out Cain's stupid nein nein nein as idiotic and unworkable, like it is. Gotta break the spell this thing has on the public.

[FreedomProsperityPeace]

Well, in the case of BillO, there is no chance for the interviewee to get a word in edge-wise. Why even bother?Exactly. Tough questions and bias are one thing, being constantly cut off and having your good points blown off and and not addressed is another. O'Reilly gives a guest 5 minutes and he does most of the talking, where MTP devotes a lot more time to their guests.

this scares me.......

lol - that was pretty funny

Because Bill O'Reilly is rude. Such rudeness should not be rewarded.

MTP will be tough, even advesarial, but will afford Dr. Paul every courtesy and every opportunity to explain his answers. Far more than he could expect of O'Reilly.

If O'Reilly wants him, give him the same courtesy he gives Obama... an hour sit down, outside the studio. Bill can have the final edit, but the campaign gets the raw footage.

[Kords21]

Dr. Paul is going to shoot down every "gotcha question" from David Gregory with ease. This will only help Dr. Paul, it'll be a nice contrast to that disaster of an appearance that Cain had on that show.

[Aratus]

they have to talk about his recent 53% ohio swingstate straw poll win if they dare mention newt G. and herman C. taking over half of nevada!

[FreedomProsperityPeace]

If O'Reilly wants him, give him the same courtesy he gives Obama... an hour sit down, outside the studio.He was even doing it to Obama, cutting him off and not letting him get a full answer out.

[runamuck]

I hope Ron has done a lot of prep. Their goal will be to turn it into a hit piece to "expose his crazy outlandish" ideas. He needs to be on his game! A show stopping performance on MTP could really help our growing momentum!

[smithtg]

i hope they bring up the ohio straw poll win but who knows

[KramerDSP]

Just found out Hillary Clinton will also be on Meet the Press. This is going to be a ratings bonzanza for CBS Sunday morning with half of the show being with the Secretary of State and the other half being with Ron friggin Paul.

now back to mitt romneys grass http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nzcErqri6k

keep off the grass!

[ItsTime]

^Did they really go back to talking about Mitts grass after Ron Paul called the media out on it?

[Diashi]

Stellar interview! Paul does so much better with 1-on-1 than with large gatherings because he gives very personable answers. Paul kung-fu'ed that interviewer.
