Same here. As if saying "Paul supporters" is that difficult.

Paulheads is alright anything to get more info out. I don't find it insulting. What other group of people did you know that followed there favorite around the country for free. Deadheads.

Paulheads sounds kinda cool "new age" if you will. It isn't an insult anyway.

Why should Paulheads be offensive in any way? It's just stupid and sounds dumb.

Would you want to "become a paul head" if you had not heard of Ron Paul?

It makes getting new voters harder. The way you frame the term is crucial, for example think of "pro-life" versus "anti-abortion"

I wonder what the Romney heads and Ghouliani heads think of this. I bet the McCain heads are worried too...

Ya putting "heads" in there sounds dumb.

I would insist on one of either two terms:

Ron Paul Supporters

or

Ron Paul Republicans

I don't like labels and the "head" reference can be potentially harmful....for example, SKINHEADS? :mad:

Skinheads, deadheads, potheads, crackheads, dittoheads. I cannot think of a single positive use of the "head" suffix. It is a derogatory term, plain and simple. It implies a mindless cult-like group.

Why does everyone need to find something negative about every MSM piece.

They used to call Fred Thompson supporters Fredheads and we all know Fox news loves taht guy with a passion.

This interview was so perfect and the interviewee came off flawlessly. He was completely composed and answered the questions directly and intelligently.

Some randomn reported called us Paul-heads... not worth crying about.

This is a war of words my friend, words affect public opinion

They probably already focus group tested that word as the worst and started using it accordingly...ala Frank Luntz

Lighten up you sensitive ones. That was a great piece. Hardly any of you have commented on how great Curtis did. We couldn't have asked for a better grassroots moment than that.

its like a gradeschool playground, Butthead, PAULHEAD wtf is that, they cant come up with anything better. Oh and i guess they forgot that 50% of the people in NH are independents...

At least "Fredheads" rhymed. Now they're just being lazy. Oh wait, they've always been lazy.

I don't associate anything negative with the word "head". You guys are crazy. Head is actually a good word, since that's where your brain is at. They called Dean supporters Deaniacs, implying hat they were maniacs. When I saw "Paul Head" I wasn't offended in the least. It's better than Paulite which really doesn't mean anything.

looks like we stole the label fredhead without even trying.l haha

The problem with the -heads suffix is that it relegates our campaign and thus our candidate to second-tier status. Would you hear any of Giuliani's or Romney's supporters referred to in such a diminutive fashion? It's rather infantilizing.
