Paul Ryan is loathed by the majority of people in his own state of Wisconsin (a small majority, but there nonetheless). I have also read numerous news articles about Rayan being radioactive to Mitt's campaign because of his radical stance on everything. I find their numbers very hard to believe, but lying is trendy these days.

The once-great NPR has turned into a non-stop fountain of political diarrhea.

There is no way the scrawny-assed, zombie-eyed granny-starver is more popular than Smokin' Joe.

No freakin' way!

"Ryan is not a smart man, he just plays one in Congress."

Methinks most of Lyin' Ryan's vaunted wonkiness is much like the rest OF HIS ACT: El Toro Poopoo. It is clear the fool's golden boy does not like to be called on his bullshit. Too freakin' bad.

Talk about jumpin' the shark: Lyin' Ryan's already a caricature of himself. Eddie Munster meets Eddie Haskell.

So many outlets for information as of late that the liars and cheats (manipulative billionaire moguls) can't even keep up with it anymore.

Looks like it was a good choice. If it wasn't for Saturday programming and non-political reporting I wouldn't be able to support them. Then I'd have to depend on DU exclusively for news

A lot of uninformed voters don't even know who he is, I saw in one poll a few days ago that 5% of likely voters do not know who he is and a much larger percentage has yet to form an opinion. I am sure people will see what an arrogant SOB he is tonight and that will begin to solidify negatively.
