| Ron Paul Wins CPAC Straw Poll, Sarah Palin is Third With 7 Percent02/20/10 Politics daily Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) ran away with the presidential straw poll at the Conservative Political Action Conference Saturday, with 31 percent of the vote. Paul's libertarian conservative message has made him a hero to small- government Republicans for years, but this is the first CPAC straw poll he has ever won. Paul's victory came as a surprise to supporters of Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, who has won the straw poll at this event for the last four years. Romney was second this year, with 22 percent. Another surprise came with Sarah Palin's third-place finish, with 7 percent of the vote. Palin is a favorite of the conservative base, but was one of the few Republicans included in the straw poll ballot who did not attend or speak to the conference. CPAC's straw poll is an unscientific, voluntary poll, but it has served as a barometer of support for possible Republican presidential candidates among their all-important conservative base. Here are the full results: Rep. Ron Paul- 31 percent Mitt Romney- 22 percent Sarah Palin- 7 percent. Gov. Tim Pawlenty - 6 percent Rep. Mike Pence- 5 percent Mike Huckabee- 4 percent Newt Gingrich- 4 percent Gov. Mitch Daniels- 2 percent Rick Santorum- 2 percent Sen. John Thune- 2 percent Gov. Haley Barbour- 1 percent.

| Either party could easily come up with candidates that would make most people happy. They just don't. | |

| I thought that the last two loosers (Al Gore, John Kerry) blew their own chances and pretty much threw the election, too... one would almost be tempted to guess that the leaders of the two parties get together and decide which loser is going to win, in advance... but naw that would never happen here... | |

| The focus was on Palin from the start. The press was on her like Princess Di. She didn't stand a chance. And that Katie Couric (little troll) interview killed her. WTF was she talking about? | |
