Its been a tough couple of days for Ron Paul. With a bump in the polls has come an onslaught of blistering criticism and a closer scrutiny of his record.
Indeed Paul has moved to frontrunner status in Iowa, where a growing consensus that he could win the Republican Party caucus has his GOP rivals taking shots at his record.
Paul's poll numbers have slowly inched upwards. In the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, Paul is in third place nationally with 15 percent of the vote.
According to the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, just 37 percent of Republican and Republican leaning independents nationally think Paul has the kind of personality and temperament to serve effectively as president and just 42 percent of Republicans think he would pursue policies that most Americans would find acceptable.
While ABC News has reported on Paul's outreach effort via a "phone from home" program, commercial advertising in the state, and Paul's numerous visits, some political observers say that Paul's support is built in large part with the support of non-Republicans. And ABC News has found many uncommitted Iowans at heavily attended Paul events.....snip~
ABC is the first with MSDNC following. Now it is Paul's turn to be taken down by the Media. Not to many questioning Obama over whats going down In Egypt. Anyone got Pauls Issues and Policies out there? He is tearing Gingrich up in Iowa with all his TV ads. looks Like Independants in Iowa are coming out for him.
