Ron Paul has polled third in a new Rasmussen Iowa GOP caucus poll released this week, while Rick Perry came in a distant sixth with 7% of the vote.

The Congressman pulled in 10% of the vote tally, while Romney totaled 21% and Herman Cain received 28% of the vote.

The poll of 800 likely Iowa Republican caucus participants was undertaken after the CNN debate in Las Vegas.

The survey dovetails with a recent Public Policy Polling poll of likely Iowa voters that also found Paul in third place with 10%.

Rasmussen notes, however, that "Only one-third of the caucus-goers (32%) are certain of their vote and don't expect to change their mind. Among these voters, 30% prefer Cain, 22% Romney, and 17% Paul."

Given Cain's lackluster performance in the most recent debate, the subsequent focus on the flaws in his 9-9-9 plan, and Ron Paul's announcement of his "Restore America" economic blueprint, the only plan to balance the budget from any candidate, it will be interesting to see how the poll numbers change in the days and weeks to come.

The Paul campaign yesterday announced the release of two new broadcast ads, part of the multi million dollar promotional buy that the campaign has undertaken.

Paul's website notes that the ads "capitalize on the aggressive posture Dr. Paul displayed during his Las Vegas, Nevada "Plan to Restore America" launch."

The first ad is a 30 second spot entitled simply "Plan", that summarizes the Congressman's "Plan to Restore America".

"The absolutely positive reception of Ron Paul's 'Plan to Restore America' means we're obligated to meet an even higher standard of outreach and discussion," said Ron Paul 2012 Presidential Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton, a "Plan to Restore America" co-author.

"No other Republican candidate's economic plan matches that of Dr. Paul's, so in turn we thought it only right to follow with a worthy campaign advertising effort," said Mr. Benton.

Meanwhile, Paul's Senior Adviser Bruce Fein writes in an editorial today:

"Ron Paul is the sole 2012 presidential candidate who doesn't sound an uncertain trumpet when it comes to balancing the budget and shrinking the federal Leviathan. All the others hedge their promises with weasel words or abstractions."

The second ad is a 60-second spot titled "Consistent". The ad compares Paul's flawless constitutional voting record with the records of his establishment opponents Herman Cain, Mitt Romney and Rick Perry, who have all flip flopped on a number of issues and supported big government legislation such as the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP.

"I've been talking about these issues for a long, long time -- we are bankrupt and we must decide which way we are going to go," Paul says in the ad.

Ron Paul is not plastic and it shows.

He is the man with the best plan!

All the other candidates are much of the same type of politicians we have seen in the past that try to predict which way the tide is going and change there stand to be in front of that tide.

One man stands out as different.

Ron Paul

It is like our forefathers sent him to stimulate the Liberty message our country

and our hearts!

THE LAND OF THE FREE that must ring a bell.

That is the constitution that is AMERICA!!!!

@wood9670 Ron Paul is a positive candidate so there is no need for him to create negative ads. The other candidates do back-biting because they aren't as confident as Dr. Paul. Did you notice at the end of the last GOP debate how the other candidates chose to lash out at one another, but not one said anything directed at or about Dr. Paul. It seems they all know he tells it like it is and he doesn't try to put bad frosting on that cake that Bachmann seems to always say is baked!.He's a leader!
