A new Iowa poll released today by Bloomberg News shows Herman Cain leading the field with 20 percent support, Ron Paul at 19 percent, Mitt Romney at 18 percent and Newt Gingrich at 17 percent among the likely attendees with the caucuses that start the nominating contests seven weeks away.
In an Iowa poll released on Monday, conducted by the Republican firm the Polling Company, businessman Herman Cain leads with 20 percent, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, at 19 percent, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney at 14 percent, and Reps. Michele Bachmann and Ron Paul both at 10 percent. Four other candidates scored at 5 percent or less, and only 13 percent of Iowa Republicans are undecided.
Rove and the other “elites” are so anxious to prevent citizens from usurping the power they think belongs to them (well, they are ‘elite”), they will sell this country down the tubes and allow Obama to be re-elected.
I think Newt would be a good running mate, but I suspect there are much better out there. We just all need to be prepared for a dirty Chicago-style campaign, with the Republican establishment helping the DemonRATS.
Good points!
I have always believed people get the government they deserve. Our government has been run by “seasoned” & “experienced” politicians for ever since I can remember, and I am on Medicare.
If people choose Romney or Newt, we will get another McBush.
Nothing will change much. Just like the Socialist in White House now who promised change, except he failed to state it would be change for the worse.
History is showing us all over the world what happens to countries who have extensive debts. Just look at the PIIGS countries. We need a real change, not debate slickness.
There are only 2 candidates who are likely to make real change. Cain & Perry. Ron Paul should be included except he is not a real candidate because he is unelectable in November 2012 for president.
Thanks!
