David Axelrod: Herman Cain not a serious contender

I always thought Axelrod looked like Hitler.

[Graewoulf]

When I read that Davie-Axey said “I don’t think it’s good for most Americans,” I figured that “most Americans” meant that over 50 % of Americans do not now pay personal FIT. Yeah, a mere 9 % tax would be a HUGE tax increase to those who now “do not pay their fair share.”

Davie-Axey in NYC for the Morning Joe show. OBAMAVILLE squatters in a NYC Park. Hmmmmmmm - - - - - ? Maybe Davie-Axey is in NYC to organize the OBAMAVILLE squatters?

BTW, maybe all the squatters with cell phones can organize a flash mob, when Davie-Axey is back in the District of Corruption, of course.

Nice. Would be interesting to see when Perry began his nosedive, after his “heartless” debate?

For Comparison, I added the Zogby result from this weekend (Oct. 11-14) to the bottom of this table...

You COULD say that the four InsiderAdvantage state polls released today represent a reasonably good cross-section of our overall country.

So I gave each poll results equal weighting, and averaged them, as follows:

	Sample	Cain	Romney	Gingrich	Paul	Bachman	Perry	Huntsman	Santorum
U.S. COMPOSITE	1812 RV	28.1	26.4	9.2	7.4	5.9	5.7	2.3	unknown
SC	476 RV	32	16	8	6	6	12	1	NotAsked
FL	505 RV	30.2	32.6	11.7	2.7	1.6	2.9	2	NotAsked
IA	422 RV	26	18	12	10	11	6	1	NotAsked
NH	409 RV	24	39	5	11	5	2	5	NotAsked
	Sample	Cain	Romney	Gingrich	Paul	Bachman	Perry	Huntsman	Santorum
U.S. ZOGBY	1214 RV	45	21	6	8	1	7	3	3

BobL: You're right. The COMPOSITE seems even conservative compared to other polls done recently.

JUST IN: David Axlerod: Herman Cain not serious contender

[Kartographer]

The Perrybots must be proud to have someone of Axlerod’s stature agree with them!

After all we all know that Cain is just Mitt’s stalking horse! Cain-Mitt, Mitt-Cain, it doesn’t matter Mitt has merely sent his errand-boy Cain out to fetch him the nomination. Why even with 51% of the delegates Cain will just turn them over to Mitt. Cain is running just to sell books and get a nice cushy job on Fox don’t you know that? Cain is part of the FED! Cain has horns and a tail! Cain wants your first born in taxes! And that’s just the good things the Perry Supporters have to say about Cain.

[Future Useless Eater]

That sounds about right.

His amnesty-friendly stance on illegal aliens is his Achilles heel.

[South40]

lol! Great graphic!

Could Cain Be the 2nd Coming of Reagan? - Bernard Goldberg, FOX News

[RichInOC]

Dude, you work for Barack Obama. Shut the hell up.

[TheCornerOffice]

Ax should do a little reading before opening his piehole. One of he 9s is a BUSINESS TAX. It'll be a cold day in hell when poor people are paying that....

Oh, Alexrod knows that is the case. He's just parroting a meme that I heard another leftist use soon after Cain won the Florida straw poll. The guy, who is one of the leftists who sometimes appears on Hannity, and who is certainly smart enough to understand 9-9-9, basically said: I don't know about this 9-9-9 plan... 9+9+9=27. That adds up to a lot of tax.

Alexrod's statement reveals how they will try to present this to the less-educated masses by trying to fool them into thinking that Cain is proposing a new 27% tax on them -- knowing that some of them will believe it.

It's shameless for them to lie like this, but they ARE leftists after all.

[Graewoulf]

Thanks for the Zogby Poll. I have found him to be one of the most accurate pollsters.

He just seems to phrase the poll questions more realistically.

Thanks again.

What is scary is the % of people that have never heard of Herman Cain. Do you have any numbers on that?

[Fred]

Wishful thinking by Axelrod.

[Fred]

Politico carrying water for Rinos Myth, will be a mouthpiece for anyone who attacks Cain

[Republican Wildcat]

“I think you’ve got to add the 9-9-9 up, get to 27 percent, and that’s probably what poor and middle-class people will end up paying once the thing is implemented,” Axlerod said.

Is this an admission by Axlerod that consumers pay the corporate taxes?

[CollegeRepublican]

Did you see Bernie on O’Reilly tonight running down Cain's chances? Goldberg is your textbook establishment pundit and is pushing Mitt on us because “conservatives can't win”. We are all purists and our inability to accept Mitt's waffling will hand the election to Obama.

Like Rush says, “Conservatism works every time it is tried.” I say we give it a try and to hell with Romney.

My hope is that Cain can turn these poll numbers into cash to have infrastructure in the battleground states.

[PhilDragoo]

This is an admission by Axelrod that an
Obama-in-the-Bunker youtube is going viral.

[alstewartfan]

So, why is Cain blowing away the competition if he is not a “serious candidate”? The American people are not in a jovial mood right now. Bob

[alstewartfan]

He certainly has a Hitleresque moustache.
