Important Truckers Forum Notice!

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

The Final Push

RACE SNAPSHOT
We enter the final week before the Iowa Caucus in a position of strength. Nearly every poll finds Edwards enjoying momentum that places us in a statistical tie with Senators Clinton and Obama for first place. CNN's Opinion Research poll captured Edwards at 26 percent; Strategic Vision found Edwards at 27 percent. Edwards has been drawing enthusiastic crowds - larger than those our rivals. Last Saturday night in Mason City, Edwards drew 600 people while nearby Obama's event had roughly 300 attendees. Last Monday in Des Moines: Edwards drew 400 caucus goers while later that afternoon Clinton drew about 100 people. We expected to draw 125 people for our last event before the Christmas break in Coralville - over 300 showed up.
But increased energy around our campaign is not limited to Iowa. In New Hampshire, we have climbed to 18 percent support in Gallup and other polls. Last Thursday in Manchester we drew over 600 people while Obama's close by crowd was roughly 500. In Nevada, had our best precinct recruitment week ever since we started recruiting precinct captains in the summer. In South Carolina, two recent polls have us jumping 6 percentage points while both of our opponents slide.

There has to more success from Ron Paul than the media is saying. There polls are bias. Especailly after that bhotto chick got killed. Today he made the statement that it was just another reason fto stop supporting pakistan and the middle east. $5 billion to pakistan, and it hasn't stopped. People I Iowa, are more worried about the gas prices, dead soldiers, taxes, farm subsidies because of CAFTA, and things that reflect their lives.
The other candidates are jumping on the "we gotta help pakistan" And the people in Iowa are saying, To heck with them, we gotta help us.
Besides. Alot of Iowans are tired of the same ole same ole that both sides have lied about. So the caucus and primary will be low.
But the Ron Paul supporters will turn out in droves.

Now that is class. Seems like I might have heard that name a time or 100 in the last few years. Oh , that's right. She just has or had about 40% of the Pakistani voters supporting her candidacy. Almost had her confused with that Dixie Chick.
