Ron Paul Beats Obama For First Time Nationally

[Silver Surfer]

According to Rasmussen, in their most recently released daily presidential tracking poll Ron Paul has bested Barack Obama 43% to 41%. This is the first time that Ron Paul has beaten Obama since the beginning of the election cycle.

In other related news, Romney also bested Obama for the first time since December 45% to 41%.

With Ron Paul gaining some momentum recently, maybe it's a Paul/Romney ticket as opposed to a Romney/Paul ticket. Or maybe not...

CONGRATS DR. PAUL!

I think Romney and Paul winning is more of a function of Obama's ratings going so low at this point. You have to remember that Obama is seeing his lowest approval ratings in quite some time, if I remember correctly. Most people are starting to see through Obama, which is propelling anyone who isn't Obama at this point.

I'm not so sure about that. This is Ron Paul's high in the Rasmussen, but it is not Obama's low in the Rasmussen. If you look at the past polling data from this link it looks like more of a Ron Paul push than an Obama pullback. Just my opinion though.
