According to the survey, which was released Monday, 28 percent of Republicans and independents who lean towards the GOP say they support Perry as their party's presidential nominee, with Romney at 21 percent. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is at ten percent, with Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, who's making his third bid for the White House, former Godfather's Pizza CEO and radio talk show host Herman Cain, and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, all at seven percent. The poll indicates that Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota is at four percent, with former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania at three percent and former Utah Gov. and ambassador to China Jon Huntsman at one percent.

Perry is finished. He never had a chance from the get go.
I think he is probably working on an excuse to skip the next debate right about now.
Heartless.

A poll based on 447 GOP or GOP-leaning voters, but they don’t release the questions, question order, internals, full results, etc.?
That’s beyond useless.
To: ilovesarah2012
I was definitely joking on that point. That seems to be the one “certainty” here. Huntsman is a joke candidate.
To: Blackandproud
it appears that Newt is breaking out of the pack. That's because Newt and Cain are both class acts and were able to rise above viciously attacking their fellow republican candidates and still get their message across.
To: jersey117
Agreed. If he does and heeds the “wake up” call, then that’s fine. If Cain stays strong and get’s stronger, than that is fine as well. If not, then someone will replace him. So far, Cain has impressed me and has impressed the immediate people that I have talked to.

The figures for GOP choice are based on responses from those adults who identified themselves as Republicans or Republican-leaning independents. True this is not the same as likely GOP voters but I doubt it is completely off. Let’s see what Ras comes up with this week.

To: Blackandproud
I agree. This has been a surprise story so far, hasn’t it?
I guess it shows that sheer intellectual doggedness counts for something in the GOP primary.
I would NOT have predicted a Newt surge a month ago. Maybe 10’ish is not a surge, but you are right, as compared to where he was when he took his Greek cruise, this is very surprising.
I think it also shows that GOP voters really care about substance. And that is a good thing.
To: TexasFreeper2009
The reports of Perry's death have been greatly exaggerated it seems!
Yeah; getting his butt handed to him in the FL Straw Poll was a fluke. (/s)

Romney is a guaranteed re-election of Obama because the base will not be enthused
I'm no Romney fan but I think all Pubbies will crawl over glass to get B. O. out

Sorry, about that...I was totally joking. I do not seriously think much about Huntsman. He is a clown and he has no chance, at all.
To: chilepup
Perry's poll numbers have hoovered around 29% + or - 2 points or so for a solid month in every poll taken of the race.
Romney's poll numbers have hoovered around 22% + or - 2 points or so over the last month.
You can ignore one poll as a possible outlier, but when every single poll for a solid month from different pollsters using different methods shows the race at a particular point... you can be pretty darn sure that's where the race is at.
To: no dems
The GOP nominee MUST (and I believe will...) defeat obama.
To: no dems
I'm no Romney fan but I think all Pubbies will crawl over glass to get B. O. out I think you're right. Four more years of him and this country is finished.
