right? now, does that mean that born denies care about more than just the single issue that the media says they do? i think possibly. does it also mean that ron paul is getting a second look here because of his views on life, because of his views as a principled conservative. he s been so idea logically consistent, right, matt? isn t that the appeal of ron paul? because at the end of the day, if you as a christian conservative, i don t think of ron paul as being a great champion of christian conservative ideals. but he is, and in terms of the pro-life movement which is a defining issue, the defining is issue, paul has been very solid on that. i also think you can t discount the whole war thing. the fact is that there are a lot of conservatives out there who are grown war weary. i think, by the way, i think if you were to to do this poll this week instead of last week the numbers wouldn t be quite as good for paul now that people know about some of those newsletters.
