They are all pretty weak.
If you ignore melanin and genitals, there's not much difference between them.
Enough read.
CNN? Not a legitimate pollster.
I think Medved is right that it’s another warning against putting Mitt at the top of the ticket, but it’s also a case where the big dog that didn’t bark. That is they either didn’t poll or didn’t publish on the likely strongest candidate’s results: Fred, of course.
The problem with Romney is that he’s a Mormon. The GOP base won’t support a Mormon, and the Dems certainly won’t support one, particularly a Republican one.
Very sad in my view. I don’t think this race should be about religion. But it looks like it will be, and it looks like the determination of the GOP rank and file to vote based on religion is going to hand this to the Democrats.
These head to heads mean nothing more than name recognition at this stage.
What's the difference between losing 48-49, and losing 20-80?
If we have to nominate McCain to get up to 48%, and still lose, then is it worth it?
I don't think so.
Besides, I think O'bama and Clinton will chew each other up between now and July.
This far before the election, this is measuring name ID and little else. Romney polls the weakest, because no one knows who he is. McCain, Giuliani and even Thompson are better known.
That said, I wish we could just pick “none of the above,” and start the process over.
The top 3 or 4 are running to see who gets the privilege of getting whooped in the general election.
Two words, McCain-Feingold. Two more words, McCain-Kennedy.
Some of us have been saying this for a long time. He would be our John Kerry. Too many things to nail him on in his record of flip-flops.![]() |
The whole entire primary is wide open and as you can tell by post on FR everyone has their own guy.
To say the Republican party is fractured is an understatement. Republicans are hard headed enough to doggedly promote their guy and their guy only---but once that gets weeded out people are going to have to make a choice one way or another.
I believe that the fact they have done this poll dead in the middle of the primary makes it utterly useless in determining anything other than propaganda.
Hillary Clinton actually beats Barack Obama right now in the polls.
Oh wait, you say, that’s not fair, because she’s a democrat.
Yep. So McCain polls better in the general election against a left-wing opponent than a conservative does? It makes sense, he gets a lot of independents saying they will vote for him.
I’ll admit that — McCain polls very well in general election matchups. Question is, do we settle for McCain because he wins easily, or do we push a conservative and do the work to win by a percentage point.
Did they even include Thompson on this poll? I know the Survey USA folks have not been doing side-by-sides with Thompson for a month or two now.
I guess this makes Medved happy.
CNN released ......blah, blah, blah. No point in reading any further.
They could report a universally known truth and it wouldn’t matter.
They have absolutely NO credibility, none, zero, zip.
I think I’ll go watch a movie....
When are the Mitt Wit's going to comprehend that fact?
Pure unadulterated bs!
the polsters of course were homosexual nazis in favor of open borders.
