Anybody in Tx knows Perry would trounce Paul. I am fascinated that a news organization would consider this “news”.
Still, I hope Paul stays in the race. He raises important issues that need to be raised and gets younger people to pay attention to market-based ideas.
Prediction: Perry/Bachman. BTW, Perry is NOT my first choice, and I hope someone more consistently conservative catches fire.
Prediction: not Perry/Bachmann
not a Prediction, but I would like: Palin/Paul
This PPP poll is the same poll from last week that had
Obama vs the candidates.
http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/PPP_Release_TX_629513.pdf
And Paul beat Obama 45/40 and
Obama beat Perry 47/45
What this means is that in Texas, Ron Paul and Rick Perry would each get 45% against Obama. But of the 15% undecided,
7% went to Obama when he was running against Perry, but 0% went to Obama when he was running against Paul.
That segment of the undecideds (7%) are keeping an open mind about Paul, and have ruled out Perry.
Perry has high negatives in Texas. 52%. Perry is a polarizing figure.
Prediction: Perry/Bachman. BTW, Perry is NOT my first choice, and I hope someone more consistently conservative catches fire.
Like Who?
Allen West and Paul Ryan are not running. General Petraus has been sucked into the Obama-big -govt Borg, nobody knows Of Ken Cuchinelli and Chris Christy is a RINO
I like Cain, Bauchman and Palin if she would run.
I voted for Duncan Hunter in ‘08
