Selections From Ron Paul's Newsletters  —  The Newsletters: Since at least 1978, Ron Paul has attached his name to a series of newsletters—Ron Paul's Freedom Report, Ron Paul Political Report, The Ron Paul Survival Report, and The Ron Paul Investment Letter—that frequently made outrageous statements:
Daniel Koffler / Pajamas Media:
RON PAUL BIGOTRY REVOLUTION  —  A damning New Republic expose on Ron Paul shows the “libertarian” Republican candidate to be a racist, a homophobe and an anti-Semite.  Will his diehard supporters continue to defend a man who called Martin Luther King a gay pedophile?

Andrew Sullivan / The Daily Dish:
The Return Of The Bradley Effect?  —  It's one explanation for the big gap between the final polls and the result: … Tonight is the first primary - not a caucus.  People get to vote in a secret ballot - not in front of their largely liberal peers, as in Iowa.

J-Walking:
Race, Polls, Obama  —  It now seems pretty clear that virtually all of the late polling on the Democratic side was wrong... very wrong.  The last Rasmussen Report had Obama +7 over Clinton.  CBS had him +7.  USA Today had Obama +13 and CNN +10.  —  With more than 25% of New Hampshire now reporting Obama is -5.
Kevin Drum / Washington Monthly:
HILLARY'S WIN....I have several reasons for being pleased with the results of tonight's Democratic primary:  — I've made three electoral predictions so far: that the eventual candidates would be Mitt Romney and Hillary Clinton and that Iowa would turn out not to be as important as everyone thought.

How Wrong Were The Polls?  —  Commenter Brian makes an observation “No one is talking about how the polls actually nailed Obama's number.  Obama didn't lose this election.  He stayed steady and Hillary surged ahead."  That seems to be true.  Here's a chart comparing the actual results …
Mike Potemra / The Corner:
Let's Call It a Comeback—and a Black Eye for the MSM  —  Look, Barack Obama's an impressive guy; I don't know anybody who dislikes him.  But I think we should be encouraged that voters can stand up against an emotional 24/7 media Valentine for one candidate, and vote instead for a person …
