This may put Bachman into the first tier with Romney and Perry.
Perry — Bachman 2012?
Romney didn’t make the first tier in Iowa!
This straw poll business is meaningless. Just over 16,000 “voters” many of whom are probably from out of state is not significant except it provides the MSM with step-one in the give-Republicans-a-proven-RINO-loser process. Step two will come early next year, in the dead of an Iowa winter, with the caucuses. In a sane world, this would not even be a blip on the radar of serious candidates.
What we all should realize —especially those who like to threaten to stay at home if their particular brand of kook isn’t nominated — is that we will not survive another Obama term, and we MUST vote for the (R) opponent. Even if it hurts, and it most likely will.
“This may put Bachman into the first tier with Romney and Perry”
By acknowledging the concept of “first tier”, are you not playing their game? And what defines “may”? Surely whether the TV says so
Neither Romney or Perry are in the first tier. The first tier are Palin (until she declares she is not running), Bachmann, Cain and West.
