That’s where my money is.
Cain 2012
I want you Perry swooners to consider this carefully: If he can't debate effectively, think of the 'deer in the headlights' look he would have had in front of the cameras if he had but one incident like the several bogus shots Cain has just endured.
Can you say BACKFIRE????
I love this guy more and more that he tells the media to F off
when that bozo kept asking him question over and over after he just finished saying he was not answering... and he told him “what did I just say”
I would have sent him ANOTHER check if he had slapped him on the head
Great news! Cain’s number one even after Perry tried to screw him. Perry as usual is in single digits. Getting pretty close to the bottom of the barrel....no wait, he is there for sure. Some Perry Lovers think that Perry is coming back....ROTFLMAO. Oh best news of the day is that “jla” has been zotted by Jim. Getting rid of them one by one.....HAPPY DAY!!!!!
I wonder how the “polls’ would change if Sarah Palin re-introduced herself to being a candidate for the next election?
The Romney-Rove RINOs can’t derail Cain....and Texas can keep their RINO Perry even if he didn’t have a hand in helping the DNC media scandal-mongering.
Much like what the government does with unemployment statistics, the following chart represents a 4-poll "rolling average" for the latest 20+ polls listed at RealClearPolitics.com (plus recent weekly national polls from YouGov). I also weighted the polls by their size. For example, a poll with a survey size of 1000 was weighted proportionately heavier than an 324 survey size.
Weighted 4-Poll Rolling Averages of the latest 20+ Polls listed at RCP [as of Nov 3rd] |
What a cast of characters:
Flippsy Mittsy
Herman One Note
Tex the Befuddled
Professor Newt
And bit parts still played by:
Bug-eyed Michelle
Rick, the pissy altar boy
Guess I’m leaning toward the professor. But,honestly, this is not looking good.
“The Cain train keeps on rolling!!!!!!!!”
Yes it does. Also Newt continues his slow but steady rise in the polls. Karl Rove’s man Mitt Romney is stuck in the low 20’s.
Sexual harassment? Even if he implodes, it’ll be worth it to bury Romney.
The top 3 contenders actually remind me a little of the top 3 commiecrat contenders for their ‘08 nomination.
There’s an African-American who has very little political experience, but articulates broad ideas that endear him to the party base. For them, Barack Obama, for us, Herman Cain.
There’s a really smart figure best known for their role in the 1990’s, but who carries a lot of political baggage. For them, Hillary Clinton, for us, Newt Gingrich.
There’s a creepy, plastic guy from a state generally associated with the other party, who insists that he’s the most electable but seems extremely untrustworthy. For them, John Edwards, for us, Mitt Romney.
The commiecrats nominated Obama, but I get the feeling that they wish they would’ve nominated Hillary and are very glad they didn’t nominate Edwards. I wonder what we’ll wind up doing?
Not sure why everybody waits for the latest MSM/REP EST polls to come out??
I do not believe any of them no matter what they said, about ANY candidate!
I no more would believe the Thursday unemployment numbers, or the monthly job numbers that this administration releases.
Why would anybody believe anything any MSM/REP EST pollster had to say??
Just boggles my mind.
Pollsters will apparently pick our candidate
Cain chugs ahead!!
And, Newt just might pass Mitt if he keeps this up...
A 2-man race between Cain and Newt would piss off Romney and Perry...
this has to be the most published poll ever in the history of FR...thread after thread after thread of self reassurance
I will go on record predicting Cain falls or plateaus in upcoming polls.
And ya’ll can whup me like a red headed stepchild if I’m wrong in coming weeks
Gingrich/Cain 2012
Continues to lead in Rasmussen despite the smears? He’s got teflon.
Big event coming up this Saturday night, in Texas, I believe. Newt vs. Cain head-to-head, Lincoln/Douglas style. I believe C-Span picked it up...
I KNOW Newt is great with long answers - here’s a chance for Herman to show that he can hold his own against a seasoned and well-respected wonk.
BTW, in the spirit of full disclosure - Newt’s my guy.
From WSJ:
When Abraham Lincoln debated Stephen Douglas in seven counties over three months in 1858, thousands packed town squares to hear the two men face off over three hours. And no one paid a dime for the pleasure.
Fast forward to Nov. 5th, when presidential aspirants Newt Gingrich and Herman Cain plan to meet in Texas for a one-on-one modified version of those famous debatesa chance, both of their camps say, to get beyond the quick punchlines and pointed questioning of the usual televised presidential debate.
The verbiage may be weightier, but so will the entry fee.
Bleacher seating at the Gingrich/Cain debate, hosted by the Texas Tea Party Patriots at the Woodlands Resort in Houston, costs a cool $200. The next step up, the $500 ticket, gets you prime seating and a ticket to the Nite Cap party after the Debate, says the groups website. And for the really high rollers, $1,000 will get you the best seating in the house for the debate and a professional picture taken with the candidates.
The debate will focus on steps to rein in government spending and fix Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. Cash earned from the verbal sparring match will go to support the tea party groups mission to organize, educate and inform our citizens regarding public policy, and to support the election of local, state and federal candidates who share our conservative values.
