Ron Paul's campaign manager says that rumors of his canddate's demise are greatly exaggerated:

Peden is NOT leading Dr. Paul in this race. In fact, most voters still don't even know who Peden is. How do I know this? Because I am Ron Paul's campaign manager and I have personally overseen 4 different political surveys in district 14 in recent weeks. All 4 surveys have shown the same results: Ron Paul has a high favorable rating and high marks on his job approval. And if the election were held today, 60+ percent of the GOP voters say they would vote to reelect Ron Paul, while only 18-20% chose Peden. The remaining 20% or so say they are undecided or refuse to give an answer to these scientific and statistically accurate surveys.

I heard Sean Hannity brag that Ron Paul was down in polls to his primary challenger.yesterday afternoon. I've posted about it here. I guess we'' just have to wait until March 4th, the day of the Texas primary, to know the truth.
