February 14th, 2012 Poll Shows Rick Santorum Leading GOP Race In Tennessee

Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich has scheduled a trip to Tennessee next week while a poll indicates Rick Santorum is now leading in the state despite his lack of a campaign organization within the state.

The American Research Group Inc. poll, involving 600 "likely" Republican voters contacted by telephone Feb. 8-9, found Santorum favored by 34 percent, followed by Mitt Romney (27 percent), Gingrich (16 percent) and Ron Paul (13 percent).

Where did you get them? I want a yard sign and a bumper sticker. Thanks.

Romney is running the Santorum is for earmarks ad three times an hour on talk radio in Memphis.

You can get bumper stickers now from the store at the Rick Santorum website:

I actually got my bumper sticker off of eBay, because when I bought it (last July, I think) the Santorum website didn't yet have such things.

The store at the Rick Santorum website has rally signs, but I don't think that it has yard signs. I bought my yard signs from a site on the internet:

Their signs seemed to be nicer and cheaper than other places. (Most signs at other places were running $15 to $20 each.) The prices at this place are $9.95 each, 2/$16.00, 5/$35.00, 10/$50.00, 50/$200.00, 100/$375.00.

I started to order ten and put them out around town, but the right of way issues pose a problem. I ordered a couple for my yard. Shipping was $10 (kind of steep, but the total price was better than at other sites).

I bought a couple of signs like this one:



Probably need to hurry. It took about a week for the signs to arrive.

I voted early for Newt here in Tennessee. It seems a majority of the callers on the Nashville talk shows have been leaning his way, but that’s a microfacet of the bigger picture.

I just don’t think Santorum has what it takes to stand toe-to-toe with Obama.
