A lot of people like Ron Paul....

Republican Candidates

Fred Thompson 2084 34.9%
Ron Paul 1731 29.0%
Rudy Giuliani 757 12.7%
Newt Gingrich 398 6.7%
Mitt Romney 390 6.5%
Tom Tancredo 223 3.7%
Duncan Hunter 129 2.2%
Tommy Thompson 108 1.8%
John McCain 94 1.6%
Sam Brownback 44 0.7%
George Pataki 14 0.2%

Not the folks at Pajamas Media, of course....they went so far as to take his name off the list of Republican candidates in order to hide his popularity. Having put him back on the list he now trails only one fellow who hasn't even declared his candidacy.

Of course Paul still doesn't stand a chance. He's the epitome of the unelectable candidate (ie, he's not an lying, conniving advocate of unchecked centralized power). Still, it's fun to see.

cheers
