"This poll was already debunked on another thread. When both Perry and Palin were included, Romney was in front (and Palin was ahead of Perry)."


How do you debunk a poll with information contained within that very same poll? Yes, Bachmann drops to number 2 behind Romeny if both Palin and Perry get it. That is IF they both get in. The obvious reason why Perry was included in both polls is that there is a lot more indications that his entry is imminent. Every time one of Palin's supporters, or her daughter, has indicated that her entry was imminent, she squashed the rumors. As it stands now, a Palin entry, along with Perry, would appear to throw the nomination to Romney. "When both Perry and Palin were included, Romney was in front..." You say that as if it was a good thing. How is it that some on this site are making the argument that Michele's candidacy is splitting the vote away from Sarah and giving the nomination to Mitt, when the polls are showing the opposite to be the case?

Because many on this site have been following Sarah's progress since 2007 and they have not heard of Michele until a few months ago. They see Michele making establishment republican moves and it is not passing the smell test.

. and giving the nomination to Mitt, when the polls are showing the opposite to be the case?

Tout a poll that does and someone else will come along touting one that shows the opposite.

PRIC Rick? He has not done squat. The biggest indicator to folks here in Texas observing his actions for more than a decade that he was thinking of a run on the WH was when he turned on a dime from his establishment RINO ways and started thumping his chest pretending to be a conservative.
