On October 29, presidential candidate Ron Paul won the National Federation of Republican Assemblies’ (NFRA) Iowa Straw Poll, twice!  Yet they endorsed Rick Santorum!

What’s the point of holding an election if the winner (twice) is the loser?  I wonder how many Iowa republicans are thinking of jumping ship?

Was Paul ignored by the NFRA because of his praise of government whistleblowers?  He said whistleblowers are necessary so that we can get to the bottom of why things don’t go the way we were told they would, but more so because it could prevent war: “But the area that neither the Democrat nor the Republican leadership seems to welcome any whistle blowing is when there is an exposure on our foreign policy, the fallacies of why we go to war and what we do.”
