McAllister: Ron Paul as Robin Hood of What?

Catch the latest version of the “Getting Ready to Get Right with Lenny McAllister” podcast:

1. The latest on the GOP field and the SC primary race for January 21
2. The book “The Obamas” and what the criticism of First Lady Obama may signify about race relations in America
3. The GOP, the MLK Holiday Celebration, and the Challenge Ahead for Republicans and Minorities in the United States

“We have people dropping out – Jon Huntsman endorsing Mitt Romney which is a little strange.  We have people who should drop out, like Rick Perry.  There will be Ron Paul – who is like Robin Hood of … the Libertarian Party.  You’ll have Santorum and Gingrich going back and forth,” says McAllister.

“As someone who lived in the Carolinas for more than a decade, I think I know what’s going on there. I don’t believe in any of the polls. If it’s going to be Romney, yet again, I don’t think the grassroots is going to be fired up.”
