New York Times reports on Ron Paul supporter’s plans to catch Romney’s bus

In the story here, the New York Times political blog reports on the plans of some Ron Paul supporters to take advantage of Mitt Romney’s offer of a bus to Ames and a free “voting ticket” for the straw poll. Although it does get him more publicity, the story seems to be an attempt to discredit the honesty and intergrity of Ron Paul supporters.

I’m amazed that the Times considers a plan like this news, especially when it isn’t part of Ron Paul’s campaign, but just something some of his supporters are planning on doing independently. In my opinion, this shows that the mainstream media is getting a little scared of the affect Ron Paul might have on the election. People of Iowa, please don’t let Mitt Romney and Big Media buy the Iowa straw poll… buy your own ticket, make your own trip to Ames, and vote for Ron Paul!
