"Objective political analyst" Stuart Rothenberg writes a column today entitled "Republican Campaign Still Includes Many Possible Storylines" -- without once mentioning Ron Paul.

In August, Rothenberg showed his true statist colors by claiming Ron Paul should be excluded from future debates (emphasis added):
"In other words, it's time for them - Ron Paul, Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter, Dennis Kucinch and Mike Gravel - to go. Go to Iowa. Go to New Hampshire. Go somewhere. But get them off the stage with the credible candidates...You could give Ron Paul and Mike Gravel an hour of free TV time from now until Christmas and they still wouldn't have a snowball's chance in Hell of being nominated by their respective parties."

Now it's November, and Ron Paul is polling 6% nationally and rising (Kerry was polling 4% nationally in mid-December 2003). Paul also has more cash on hand than any other Republican candidate after his stunning $4.3 million day Nov. 5th.
So here's big-government Stu shilling again, just another propagandist faking objectivity, paid to news-lie to his readers in print.
Note the heading on his blog: "A Nonpartisan Analysis of American Politics and Elections."
