The race with Palin not included:

Perry 29
Romney 23
Paul 10
Bachmann 8
Gingrich 6
Cain 4

The race with Palin included:

Perry 27
Romney 22
Palin 14
Paul 8
Bachmann 6
Gingrich 4
Cain 3

It appears that Sara draws very little from Perry when added into the mix.

I had thought that Rick Perry had ALREADY surged ahead of Mitt Romney....

Or is it that Mitt is catching up?

Palin is in the perfect polling position ion this one of it is accurate. Being the front-runner is almost never good this far away from the casting of votes.

How is it that when you take out the Palin supporters, Romney’s numbers go up?

Palin is in the perfect polling position in this one if it is accurate. Being the front-runner is almost never good this far away from the casting of votes.

This time I almost wrote it in English.

until YOUR candidate is shown in the lead, at which point you will be screaming the results from the rooftops!

This poll is a little different than all the other polls I have seen, all the others showed Palin drawing from Bachmann and Romney (in some cutting Romney’s support in half) but this one seems to show her taking a point or two from everyone.

Oh, but you know what they say....

Polls are for strippers and cross country skiers (and of course political advisers who use them for political forecasting, but we won’t mention that part).

Some more interesting data:

Trend where available:

a. best understands the problems of people like you

9/1/11 7/17/11
Sarah Palin 19 23
Rick Perry 17 5
Mitt Romney 13 18
Michele Bachmann 9 11
Ron Paul 8 9
Newt Gingrich 6 4
Herman Cain 3 5

b. is the closest to you on the issues

9/1/11 7/17/11
Rick Perry 21 5
Mitt Romney 15 21
Sarah Palin 14 20
Michele Bachmann 10 10
Ron Paul 10 10
Newt Gingrich 6 5
Herman Cain 3 5

On both of these questions, it shows all of the other main candidates either losing ground or remaining static since the last poll, but shows Perry gaining ground like crazy.

It's also funny how they twist this around and make the claim that Palin is the real leader, (under the radar, wink, wink)

Or even funnier, always try to make all Perry Treads become about Palin, or ani-Perry festivals.

My post has nothing with who I do or do not support. It’s a parody of typical posting on poll thread. I got in first!!! There will be a lot more, but I was first.
