"Look at Ron Paul. Here is a guy who has beaten Rudy Guliani I think in every Primary, Guliani comes in 6th, Ron Paul comes in 4th, and literally when the Media talks about him on air - they just laugh. So why do they laugh? I actually heard Ari Fleischer in the News say, and I cant remember which primary it was: "Great News for Rudy Guliani again that he came in 6th". What? I mean I dont understand? ..... And who decides who's viable and who's not? Because going by Poll Numbers it seems out of whack."

It's a long video so I'll mention that the Ron Paul comment came four minutes in.

It was a question posed to the Newsweek guy (sorry can't remember his name). Newsweek guy sort of agrees and then says "Paul aside..." and uses Huckabee as an example. I thought it was weird and while I gave Jon kudos for bringing it up, I was disappointed he didn't follow through.
