Great quote. Fortunately, the Bible is the Word of God, and it is not written by men or devils. It is clearly written by someone who can see what happens thousands of years before it happens.

Please see http://xwalk.ca/y3nf.html for the details.

The journalist types might as well just make everything up, just like at the National Enquirer.

How’d Cain do in Iowa today?

Cain’s staffer was there at the straw poll, with tickets that Cain bought, that THEY COULD NOT GIVE AWAY.

Here are the results of that straw poll, IN IOWA.

http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/10/29/8539644-paul-wins-yet-another-straw-poll

Paul 82%
Cain 14%

After Paul and Cain, Santorum received 1% of the Iowan-only vote followed by Gingrich with 0.9%, Michele Bachmann and Perry with 0.5%, and Gary Johnson with .2%. Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman finished at 0%.

Todays OTHER Straw Poll.

IOWA Straw Poll Results.

Ron Paul 82%
Herman Cain 14.7%
Rick Santorum 1%
Newt Gingrich 0.9%
Michele Bachmann 0.5%
Rick Perry 0.5%
Gary Johnson 0.2%
Mitt Romney 0%

The total number of votes cast in that tally was 430.

Ron Paul was in Iowa (so was Santorum).

Herman Cain was unable to give away FREE tix in Iowa.

Bingo well said...

Think the opposite is happening... Cain appears to be the front runner. It’s driving the Leftist crazy. They fear Cain and are throwing everything at him.

The anti-Cain propaganda is intensifying. It's going to get brutal.

Santorum exploits the abortion confusion in a vicious new ad.

Waynes World was 20 years ago.

These are straw polls.

People understand that straw polls only measure, if they even do that, the skill and quality of the campaign organization.

And people readily admit that Ron Paul just has the the best organization, primarily, if not exclusively, because he just has so many more very strong supporters than any other campaign does.

People who like Cain now, and I do think the polls are accurate regarding Cain, didn’t particularly like him 2 months ago.

But the TV is talking about him all the time, and most people really aren’t paying attention, so, sure they like Cain.

Fox has a different take on IOWA, From TODAYS Headlines at Fox

“Cain, Romney Finish at Top of Des Moines Register Poll”

Texas Rep. Ron Paul finished third in the poll on 12 percent, while no other contender polled more than 10 percent.

Paulbots are not programed to accept a scientific poll. They are programmed only to accept straw polls and internet polls that can be spammed. The surrender monkey could never win a Republican poll. No Republican would ever vote for somebody who blames America for every problem in the world.

Thanks! That is possibly the funniest thing I have ever seen on youtube. One of the comments says “I bet Herman Cain is laughing his ass off watching this”. I agree.

Well, I’m guessing you don’t realize that we’re talking about 2 different things.

There was a straw poll and there was a phone poll.

Ron Paul got 82% in the straw poll and 12% in the phone poll.

Lots of FReepers are mixing up polls. The straw polls were not even Republican Party, the were by the “National Federation of Republican Assemblies” who held a “2011 NFRA Presidential Preference Convention”

http://www.republicanassemblies.org/nfra-call-to-convention/

They held non-binding straw polls for guest attendees, but the official delegates endorsed Rick Santorum.
