Ron Paul wins CPAC straw poll

The Conservative Political Action Committee took its straw poll for who they'd prefer to run for President in 2012.

1. Ron Paul - 31%
2. Mitt Romney - 22%
3. Sarah Palin - 7%
4. Tim Pawlenty - 6%
5. Mike Pence - 5%
6. Newt Gingrich - 4%
7. Mike Huckabee - 4%
8. Other/Undecided - 11%

Also in the poll were Mitch Daniels, Rick Santorum, John Thune and Haley Barbour.

I think this shows the Libertarian tide is rising in the Republican party.

On the other hand, Ron Paul is even older than John McCain.
