Thanks to Max Raskin for phoning in the news that Ron won the important NJ Straw Poll with 72%.
Adds Garry Cobb: "This vote was in North Jersey, which is supposedly Rudy's territory given its proximity to New York. I believe he received only a few votes.
"On a side note, Rudy's speaker (Bill Spadea, who is a great speaker, by the way), in an attempt to sell his candidate, brought up the fact that Rudy had people in NYC arrested for jaywalking.... and then defended the policy! Interestingly enough, Mr. Spadea admitted that he admires Ron Paul and that his own father will probably be voting for the Dr. Paul."
