August 30, 2011 - Raleigh, N.C. – If there was any question that Rick Perry is the new Republican presidential frontrunner before now, PPP’s latest poll of South Carolina confirms it.

If the Republican Presidential race came down to just Rick Perry and Mitt Romney, who would you vote for?

Rick Perry ....................................................... 59%

Mitt Romney.................................................... 28%

Not sure .......................................................... 13%

Apparantly North Carolina is full of RINO’s.

Oh, please, Romney only got to where he is because of his daddy politician.

Something about career politicians, pots, and kettles comes to mind.

Romney is seeking to paint himself as the outsider — even though he’s essentially been running for president since 2006.

You would think he had learned that people really don't want him as president.

What business was/is Romney in?

"Well Mitt, I am really pleased to know you are a solid conservative businessman who knows how to create jobs in the private sector, because as the executive of Massachusetts you were very weak on job creation and quite the liberal. Maybe you need to keep creating those jobs as a businessman."

All that said, what can Mitt say, it's his only angle.

“I am a conservative businessman. I spent most of my life outside of politics, dealing with real problems in the real economy,” Romney said told the Veterans of Foreign Wars annual convention in San Antonio. “Career politicians got us into this mess and they simply don’t know how to get us out.”

Guess he can classify himself as an outsider as the voters denied his bid for the US Senate. And once again the voters denied his campaign bid (2007-2008) for the GOP nomination for President.

And currently Mitt does not seem to be doing well in his current bid (2010-2011) for the GOP nomination for President.

Thus, because the voters denied Mitt his sought after offices can he now state he is not a career politician.

Guess his continuing 'flip-flop' carries over to his logic. ;)

Here is how Obama and his minions have it planned -- Conservatives are extreme radical religious fanatics, hate-filled nuts deeply bent on further tearing the tatted social fabric of the nation -- attacking a president who sought to bring people together (and that Obama's approach to governing - seeking national unity -- has left him weak).

Ass-backwards.

Politics just isn’t his strong suit.

Wanting to be as good as his dad seems to be his motivation.

Romney was a business consultant and venture capitalist. he was a good one, made a lot of $, as its bankrolled his political career.

We need more real-world folks and less career politicians in the mix. Too bad Romney is a limp-noodle RINO, trumps the resume. NO go. Someone with his profile and Cain’s positions would be great. ... oh wait, that’s Cain himself!

Romney of course would have been a career politician if he had been able to win more of his races.

The part time marxists like Romney are far superior! /s/
