Obama leads Santorum by the tally of 46 to 43 percent. He leads Romney by the tally of 48 to 42 percent. The 3-day poll was taken from Tuesday (the day of the Michigan primary) through yesterday.

If much of America is the NEW Sodom...
Little wonder “they” want Zerodamus for another term..

-OR- the west coast is Sodom and east coast is Gomorrah..
middle america being the farmland that feeds them both..

Amazing that republican america WANTS Ted Kennedys and Barney Fwanks good friend to be republican candidate..

You know who I mean.... YES YOU DO.. don’t deny it..

I guess Newt and Paul have dropped out. Wow. Talk about being insignificant. I feel sorry for the Newt fans. I am 100 percent for Santorum but would vote for Newt in the General but I don't think that is needed. I think not being involved in a primary for six weeks totally was a bad call.

This thread was meant to be humorous! I made the mistake of responding to it with some posts.

Oops- That was a response to the wrong thread. I thought I was responding to the one that said we must all coalesce around Newt.

“Rick Santorum, who is essentially the new kid on the block, has a favorable image with a plurality of the electorate (39% favorable to 36% unfavorable), but the other three Republican candidates are “upside down” with their unfavorable image exceeding their favorable image with the overall electorate. The candidates who have been in the national spotlight longer – Gingrich (26% favorable to 62% unfavorable) and Romney (38% favorable to 51% unfavorable) – have actually reached a majority unfavorable rating while Ron Paul (30% favorable to 46% unfavorable) holds a plurality unfavorable rating. The bottom line being, this is a trend that must be reversed before the general election if Republicans expect to be truly competitive in the fall in the Presidential election.”

Gingrich has 62 unfavorability among the generatl electorate, and performs worse vs Obama than all of the other candidates - Ron Paul included.

The upside-down numbers are no doubt a result of the cat fight that has been the GOP primary. Maybe the small bit of good news is that Obama isn't above 48% against either Roomney or Santorum.
