A new poll from Public Policy Polling shows President Obama trailing Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee and Newt Gingrich in support for the 2012 presidential election.
Ex-Massachusetts Gov. Romney leads by 46 to 43 percent, ex-Arkansas Gov. Huckabee by 47 to 45 percent and ex-House Speaker Newt Gingrich by 46 to 45 percent.
Obama is tied with ex-Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin at 46 percent. The only potential Republican candidate he leads is lesser-known Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, 44 to 36 percent.
The president’s numbers are the worst ever in Public Policy Polling’s monthly survey.
But the poll respondents didn’t express much enthusiasm for the potential Republican candidates either. Of the five contenders, only Huckabee has more people who view him favorably than unfavorably -- 37 percent to 28 percent.
Romney received a favorable rating from 32 percent of respondents and an unfavorable rating from 33 percent. For Gingrich, the margin was 32 to 42 percent, for Palin it was 37 to 52 percent and for Brewer 17 to 20 percent.
Still, Republicans enjoy a strong advantage over Obama among independent voters. Those respondents favored Romney over the president by 48 to 35 percent, Gingrich by 50 to 39 percent, Huckabee by 46 to 40 percent, Palin by 47 to 42 percent and even Brewer by 38 to 37 percent.

I have posted it here two timees before and got it from Wilkipedia. However it was edited off recently. I guess someone is afraid of the truth.

” But Goldwater was also deeply worried about the Religious Right’s long-term impact on his beloved GOP. “If they succeed in establishing religion as a basic Republican Party tenet,” he told U.S. News & World Report in 1994, “they could do us in.” In an interview with The Post that same year, Goldwater observed, “When you say ‘radical right’ today, I think of these moneymaking ventures by fellows like Pat Robertson and others who are trying to take the Republican Party and make a religious organization out of it. If that ever happens, kiss politics goodbye.”
Most the people here call Goldwater a RINO. People who do are the real RINO’s.
I worked for Barry Goldwater, I admired Barry Goldwater, I understood Barry Goldwater, but the Barry Goldwater of 1994, under the influence of his baby-killing second wife, having opposed Ronald Reagan’s nomination for president several times, was no Barry Goldwater.

Sorry for the dup.
“I hope you are proud of yourself.”
Hey numbnuts, I don’t know what you are accusing me of, but I live in Indiana. We don’t vote in the primary till May. Long after all the other states get to weed out other viable candidates. I voted for McCain, the only choice there was. I had nothing to do with Romney or Obama. I hope you are proud of yourself.
So they switched from crack to the powder form?
That was what I was going to post so thanks. If they voted for O then they sure are not going to vote for a real conservative.
