Where did they poll? Boston?.......
This is how they described the poll :
The NBC/Wall Street Journal poll was conducted of 1,000 adults (200 reached by cell phone) from June 9-13, and it has an overall margin of error of plus-minus 3.1 percentage points.
...sponsored by the Temple Square Committee.... get real...no votes from evangelicals....
"Romney and Gingrich believe in global warming..."
Doesn't help that many conservative seasoned citizens also don't want Medicare touched - even if the changes won't effect them or anyone over 55. Also doesn't help that Fox News gives Trump the clown almost a daily platform to trash Paul Ryan and the reforms he is proposing.
While I do think it is the right thing to do to actually try to reform these entitlements, politically it may be impossible. Medicare and Social Security may just have to die on the vine. People simply aren't serious about curtailing the social welfare state. Heck, most seem to think the problem can be solved by cutting foreign aid and eliminating "waste, fraud and abuse". Greece, here we come!
This is funny,Only rats would come up with those bogus numbers and expect people to believe them,Note, I said “people” Democommies are not people, they are a form of parasite.
Though not covered in the media (busy playing racist card), I think there are still those who will not vote for a female president.
This is a really dopey analysis by Allahpundit.
And the MAM full court press for “Romney as Savior” keeps on a rollin’. *eye roll*
And I know we all say it, but it bears repeating, polls this far out mean NOTHING... even the ones we like.
This poll isn’t worth the paper I’m not gonna print it on. It’s all too early, nobody should even be RUNNING yet...
This is all just so stupid.
Meaningless at this stage.
So far Michelle Bachmann shines, but if Palin enters the race who knows at this point which one will get my vote?
This poll isnt worth the paper Im not gonna print it on. Its all too early, nobody should even be RUNNING yet...
But they are some running and people have opinions whether you or I like them or not.
(ASK ONLY OF REG VOTERS (F1a:1) WHO SAY THEY WOULD VOTE IN THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY Q11:1) Q12a Let me read you a list of people who might seek the 2012 Republican nomination for president. If you were voting today in the 2012 Republican primary for president, which one of the following candidates would you favor? (READ LIST. RANDOMIZE. IF "NOT SURE," ASK:) Well, which way do you lean? (ACCEPT ONLY ONE ANSWER.)^ THIS TABLE HAS BEEN RANKED 6/11^ Mitt Romney ........ 30 Sarah Palin ........ 14 Herman Cain ........ 12 Rick Perry .......... 8 Ron Paul ............ 7 Newt Gingrich ....... 6 Tim Pawlenty ........ 4 Rick Santorum ....... 4 Michele Bachmann .... 3 Jon Huntsman ........ 1 Other (VOL) ......... 1 None (VOL) .......... 2 Not sure ............ 8 ^ Results shown reflect responses among registered voters who say they would vote in the Republican Primary
Actually it is a very good poll in my view. I read it:
1. Conservatives candidates: 50% [Bachmann, Cain, Gingrich, Palin, Paul, Pawlenty, Santorum]
2. Center right candidates: 39% [Huntsman, Perry, Romney]
Now I am happy to hear if you want me to move Paul to the center right or Perry to the conservative column, but I think the point still holds.
