Ron Paul has not been invited to Fox News' Republican debate that will be on Sunday, just two days before the New Hampshire primary.
It is my belief that Paul should be in this debate, seeing that he is one of the top money raisers in either party. Also, Paul's exclusion from this debate will hurt Fox News' "fair and balance" slogan as it is already evident that Fox News host Sean Hannity does not like Paul.
Ron Paul should be included in Sunday's debate.

Paul: Huckabee May Be A Fascist
Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul says that Mike Huckabee's Christmas ad in which Huckabee mentions Christ reminds him "of what Sinclair Lewis once said. He says, 'When fascism comes to this country, it will be wrapped in the flag, carrying a cross.'"
Paul did go onto say that: "Now I don't know whether that's a fair assessment or not, but you wonder about using a cross, like he is the only Christian or implying that subtly."
Columnist James P. Pinkerton pointed out this quoteabout the Bible from President Franklin Roosevelt, who fought fascism: "It is a fountain of strength ... a comprehensive study of the Bible is a liberal education for anyone."

Fineman: GOP Must Unite Members
Howard Fineman of MSNBC says that if the Republicans can't unite libertarians, evangelicals and hawks in 2008 they will lose the presidential election.
Fineman says: Mike Huckabee "is fast becoming the semi-official candidate of the evangelicals," Ron Paul is the "baptized hero" among libertarians, and for the hawks "Giuliani is the Man, going George W. Bush and Dick Cheney one better in confrontational, I-love-Armageddon fervor."
"The nomination is very much worth having. But to grab it, someone is going to have to step forward on the stage to play Ronald Reagan with a script by Karl Rove," he ads.

Kucinich Would Like Ron Paul VP
Long shot liberal Democratic candidate Dennis Kucinich says that Ron Paul would be a good choice for Vice President.
The Cleavland Plain Dealer reports:
Paul communications director Jesse Benton said: "They have worked, and will continue to work, together on ending the war and protecting civil liberties. However, Ron wants to substantially cut the size and scope of the federal government. There are too many differences on issues such as taxes and spending to think a joint ticket would be possible."
The Cleavland Plain Dealer reports:
"I'm thinking about Ron Paul" as a running mate, Kucinich told a crowd of about 70 supporters at a house party here, one of numerous stops throughout New Hampshire over the Thanksgiving weekend. A Kucinich-Paul administration could bring people together "to balance the energies in this country," Kucinich said.

Paul Gets Support of Nevada Prostotute Business
It looks like Ron Paul could face some trouble in his already long shot bid for President, which has been building some momentum.
Dennis Hof, a Nevada brothel owner, is collecting funds for Congressman Paul at Moonlite BunnyRanch near Carson City. "I'll get all the (working girls) together, and we can raise him some money. I'll put up a collection box outside the door. They can drop in $1, $5 contributions," he said.
Paul spokesman Jeff Greenspan had this to say: "On a personal basis, he [Paul] doesn't condone those things. At the same time, from his campaign perspective, it's not the role of federal government and it's not in the constitution for federal government to regulate these things. The Nevada votrs and Legislature have decided it is legal activity in this state."

USA Daily: Paul May Become Front Runner
USA Daily reports that Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul "may quickly go from cellar dweller to Republican front runner after the New Hampshire primary."
The article says that there are signs appearing in private resident homes in New Hampshire which means that its not the campaigns putting the signs up, its the people who live in the homes and that his message is catching on with primary voters.

Politics1: Tancredo, Paul Both Likely to Go Third Party
Politics1 reports today that: "The Paul and Tancredo comments -- probably intentionally -- kicked the doors wide open to Paul seeking the Libertarian nomination and Tancredo seeking the Constitution nomination for President in the general election."
I believe that if Paul were to become the Libertarian nominee that the Constitution Party leadership would push for an endorsement of him on that ticket. Earlier in the year Constitution Party chairman Jim Clymer said that if Paul some how managed to win the Republican nomination that the CP convention delegates would most likely endorse him and I would expect the same would hold true if Paul were the Libertarian candidate. However, the problem the CPers may have is if they would be willing to endorse the Libertarian vice presidential nominee.
