Romney Romps Over GOP Rivals: New Zogby Analytics Poll
Forbes ^ | August 19, 2014 | John Zogby

Posted on 08/20/2014 8:54:53 AM PDT by Zakeet

It turns out that there are some good reasons why the former Governor and GOP Presidential nominee is allowing his name to be circulated as a potential candidate in 2016. Some of those good reasons can be found in a new poll by Zogby Analytics showing him outpolling his nearest rivals for the nomination by about two to one. The poll of 315 likely Republican primary voters was conducted online on August 13-15 and has a margin of sampling error of +/-5.6 percentage points.

Romney places first in the 2016 race for the nomination with 20%, followed by New jersey Governor Chris Christie 12%, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul 11%, Texas Senator Ted Cruz 9%, former Arkansas Governor and Fox News host Mike Huckabee 8%, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush 6%, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker 4%, Florida Senator Marco Rubio 4%, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindahl 3%, New Mexico Governor Suzanna Martinez 1%, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley 1%, Ohio Governor John Kasich .3%, and Ohio Senator Rob Portman at 0. Three percent selected the “Other Candidate” category and 17% were not sure.

To me, the results of the meager poll indicate that the raging Rino is not doing very well at all considering his name recognition ... but then again, I'm not a libtard on a mission to try to sell the sap to a bunch of dimwitted establishment Pubs.

Insanity - Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

Good job pre-empting the RomneyBots with that pic.

A second bite at the apple is clearly not warranted.

I laugh at Zogby, but if the establishment tries to foist Romney on us again, it will be because the 2014 midterm disaster emboldened them. They got all their RINO losers in with few exceptions.

News flash - the losing candidate from last election beats a field of also-ran nobodies.

And people get paid for producing this kind of stuff.

I'd rather have a tarantula lay eggs in my ear than vote for Romney, or any other RINO in 2016.

Guess I'll just have to get used to President Elizabeth Warren.

LOL, cute puppy. If Romney is nominated, I’m going to move to Iceland. (Well, after all the volcanoes are done erupting.)

I’d vote for Obama’s third term before I would vote for Romney.

I see Jeb Bush doubled his number in the poll.To 6 percent,big hoot.
I thought he was the establishment’s golden boy.

He didn’t want it the first time around.

Romney sure spent a lot of his own money and time and had his people try and destroy other candidates' reputations for someone who 'didn't want it.' Romney sucked as a candidate, not because he didn't want it but because he sucked as a candidate.

If Romney won the general election as a Democrat (where his political views actually place him), I would say that he won't be as bad as the typical Democrat President but the Republicans can do so, so, so much better than this clown.

Except that Romney’s ‘church’ thinks

- that biting the apple means you get to fall “upward”.
