Cain wins state poll of Tea Party members
FultonSun ^ | 11/20/2011 | Don Norfleet

Herman Cain was the winner of a statewide presidential straw poll announced Saturday of all Missouri Tea Party members.

With 995 total votes counted statewide, Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich were virtually tied for second at 28 percent of the vote each.

Poll totals were: Herman Cain, 320 (32 percent); Ron Paul, 282 (28 percent); Newt Gingrich, 276 (28 percent); Mitt Romney, 32 (3 percent); Michele Bachmann, 31 (3 percent); Rick Perry, 30 (3 percent); Rick Santorum, 13 (1 percent); Others, 2 percent.

Philip Todd said the one-week poll was conducted between Nov. 10 and Nov. 17 throughout Missouri.

James Holland, a Callaway County Patriot Tea Party leader, said he was not surprised by the results or by the fact that Romney, a consistent front runner in many nationwide presidential polls, had only 3 percent of the vote in the statewide poll of Tea Party members.

Mitt and Rick and Rick can’t even combine into a major candidate

Mitt and Rick and Rick have no TEA Party support -- not in this poll, anyway.

Herman Cain will be quite a refreshment to the people of this Country. The Left and the Right will do everything they can to stop him. My vote is Cain and it stays there. The Establishment can get bent.

Mitt in the single digits. We don’t want him, we really don’t.

Go, Herman!

I like that pic.

So do I. When I first created it the DUmmies at DU questioned its authenticity and made complete fools of themselves in the process. Apparently, they thought I was trying to pass it off as a real pic of Herman Cain having killed a Rhino. lol! Eventually one pointed out what RINO means. What kooks.

Good afternoon Bobby!

“...Doesn’t quite add up, does it...”
-
Herman Cain, 320 (32 percent);
Ron Paul, 282 (28 percent);
Newt Gingrich, 276 (28 percent);
Mitt Romney, 32 (3 percent);
Michele Bachmann, 31 (3 percent);
Rick Perry, 30 (3 percent);
Rick Santorum, 13 (1 percent);
Others, (2 percent)

Sounds like it all adds up to me.

No surprise.

Tea Partiers relegated also-ran Rick Perry to the back of the pack. He managed a meager 30 votes------coming in almost last.

B-U-T shades of the Iowa Straw Poll----Perry's sap-happy handlers are sending out announcements saying "Rick won."

Anita baked him a cow pattie cake---spelling out "congratulations" on top using BBq'ed chicken livers.

‘Well you’ve got to like this part...
Mitt Romney, 32 (3 percent)’

That is what I have been saying. These other polls about Mitt being at 23% are pure BS. I think back to when Pat Buchanan won the first two state primaries that were hand ballots. Somehow the following primary states had electronic ballots which Pat lost. Hmmmmmm!

But South40,
dennisw guarantees that Ricardo will win in November 2012. How will that happen with 3 percent of votes. Some people will STILL be delusional and ignorant and quite frankly, STUPID believing he is the be all end all. What a bunch of trash these folks are.
