Frank Luntz Focus Group Picks Winner of First GOP Debate!
Youtube ^ | 5/5/11 | Luntz Focus Group

Posted on 05/06/2011 8:23:41 AM PDT by justsaynomore

Wow, this is interesting. A focus group of SC Republican primary voters came in with only 1 supporting Cain, and left with the majority supporting Cain.

What is interesting is WHY they changed their vote. Also interesting is their feelings about the other potential candidates not showing up.

CAIN/BOLTON

Can you just see it now. A black man and a jewish man on the republican ticket.

I sure hope these folks have food tasters and don’t accept any invitations to picnic in Ft. Marcy Park.

An outsider is truly wanted. Cain will shock many and I hope he picks West as VP.

Cain is not a politician, so he doesn’t speak “poly-speak”.

Any of the Carolina list would be better than what we have now...

I knew doodley about Cain until last night. He impressed me VERY favorably.

He seems to have all of the characteristics that have caused some Freepers to support Trump, with none of the loose-lipped idiocy or liberal baggage.

Hermain Cain is pretty impressive in the short 10 minutes I saw.

As far as the others, I couldn’t be less interested if I tried.

I met Herman Cain a couple months ago. He has my support until such time as he doesn’t want it any more.

Been a Cain supporter since he announced his committee. This guy is the real deal.

Cain must continue to promote himself as a "big-picture
experienced-executive decision maker" and not a person
immersed and lost in the minutia of an issue.

After all that is what we need in the WH.

Frank Luntz was just flabbergasted by his own findings. He said he has never seen such a strong response to any debate or speech that he has focus grouped.

He has never seen anywhere near the actual changing of the minds that he saw last night. Hannity kept trying to cover for his buddy Newt and Huck and others who did not show up, but the focus groups were having none of it. If you didn’t show, you lost, and among those who did show up, Cain routed them.

And actually, the comments showed much more intelligence than the normal Luntz focus groups.

Cain by a country mile. Pawlenty and Santorum came off as very rigid and authoritarian. It wasn’t what they said, it was all in the delivery. That never sells.

Ironic, since the word for the morning on Fox&Friends seemed to be ‘Pawlenty won’.

Several different commentators/newsies called Pawlenty the winner, with Cain making a good showing.
