Unfortunately at this time I tend to agree, but curious who you think does have a chance?

This is laughable, who cares what a bunch of paid political operatives voted?

This is meaningless.

She's very attractive. Still it would be tough to chose between her and Palin.

I'm happy for Bachmann. I think she'll have an easy go of exposing Perry for the RINO that he is and Romney is toast.

I really like Cain. I hope he does well also.

Neither will I in a primary but I’ll be damned if I’ll sit home and not vote if he does win. I blame the sitters that couldn’t hold their nose and vote for McCain for giving us the America hating Marxist Kenyan.

Can someone explain to me about these ‘straw poles’ and what kind of weight they carry as far as credibility? I’ve Been following politics all my adult life but never really understood the significance behind this.

Thanks in advance.

Yeah. She was cryptic today, saying she would “announce” next month. Who knows. As long as it’s not Romney or Paul, I have no problem with the field.

Bachmann 28.55%
Paul 27.65%
Pawlenty 13.57%
Santorum 9.81%
Cain 8.62%
Perry 3.62% (write-in)
Romney 3.36 %
Gingrich 2.28%
Huntsman 0.41%
McCotter 0.21%

Perry, as a write-in candidate beat Romney. Not good news for Mitt.
