Fortunately, it's PPP.
And yes, I know that many — if not most — here will not be happy with this!
Does that mean Ron Paul has decided not to run as third party?
Iowa is becoming a mess.
I didn’t see any specifics of the poll. Adults, registered, likely caucus, yada yada...
Hawkeye Cauci is a messy messy affair; polls mostly meaningless.
Would expect Paul to do better there, Perry maybe to surprise a bit.
Sux that the affair affects the race as much as it does.
Who’s Ron Paul?
PPP is a worthless poll...chime me when rasmussen says that.
A staggering figure, given his debate disaster. Is George Soros money behind this?
Romney’s divide and conquer strategy working?
If Paul’s support is the young and new, wonder how that holds up on Jan 3. If it does, and Paul takes Iowa, then that will be a poor reflection on Iowa.
Are people there really that stupid, ignorant, and gullible? What’s occurred there over the last couple of weeks other than millions is negative T.V. ads? What’s it say about an electorate that can be so easily swayed by negative ads?
Well at least not all the support shifted to Paul and Romney. Santorum got a few point uptick.
If E.T. wins, next time we just skip Iowa, eh?
"Blame the Jews..."
This is the second poll I’ve seen with Paul in the lead and Newt slipping close to the rest of the pack. If this trend is accurate, I suspect it wont hold after Paul’s debate disaster last week. The “anti-Romney” vote needs to consolidate quickly around a true conservative candidate. If Newt’s a bridge too far for conservatives, then I hope we settle on one of the two Ricks.
I truly hate to break it to you, but the race is near enough to the margin of error.
Newt, Romney and Paul are all tied for first. It is a matter of turnout. Ron Paul brings younger and more liberal supporters. Romney brings older establishment types. Newt splits this, and brings a little from each group.
Perry, Santorum and Bachmann are also tied and one of them will get 4th place and play in New Hampshire, the other two will be done.
If Paul wins, expect him to raise another 4 million for NH and SC. If he does win, it will be because 10,000 Democrat “Occupiers” showed up. Iowa Caucuses have instant registration. So anyone can show up with an Iowa ID and vote. Even lifelong Democrats, as long as they do have proof they live in the precinct.
This threat is very very very real.
