They are adding up all the #s from all the polls taking. They are reporting Ron has having low #s, but some of these polls don't even include him.

Look at "CBS News/NY Times". It was taken a few days ago and it didn't even include Ron Paul, but they still counted the other candidates in to total #s.

if he is not in a poll, they do not average in a zero.

It lists him at 4% in that poll, so what do you mean?
