New Hampshire is Ron Paul's only legitimate avenue to build momentum and make it a realistic race in 2012, and considering his announcement last week that he will NOT be seeking Congressional reelection in Texas in 2012, he's apparently going all in, although his immense popularity in Texas' 14th district would likely allow him to re-enter that race if his presidential ambitions are foiled.

Iowa is a non-starter for Dr. Paul, who refuses to bend for social conservatives, and that makes NH extremely important in his bid for the White House. Wall Street Romney did not fare well (he was annihilated), as you will see inside. And I do mean annihilated. Chopped up and spit out like month-old road kill by the freedom-loving voters of New Hampshire.

DERRY, N.H. — Texas Congressman Ron Paul topped a straw poll of declared Republican candidates in this first-in-the-nation presidential primary state.

Conducted last weekend by the Coalition of New Hampshire Taxpayers, the poll included Mitt Romney, the former governor of neighboring Massachusetts and the winner of the 2008 GOP primary here.

Paul garnered 39 percent of the straw poll vote, followed by Rick Santorum with 12 per cent and Michele Bachman and Herman Cain with 11 percent.

Romney got 9 percent of the vote, Tim Pawlenty, 8 percent, and Gary Johnson, 7 percent.
