The poll shows that Perry is still weak compared to Romney
who is HIDING for the most part.

Perry might consider finally getting some traction
against Romney.

Perhaps he cannot, because they are both RINOs?

Update II: PPP says they have a national survey coming out tomorrow that shows Rick Perry with a double-digit lead over Romney for the Republican nomination. According to their Twitter feed:

11:34 (CT): Our national GOP poll, out tomorrow, is better for Perry even than the Iowa one. Double digit lead.

11:36: Nationally, if it came down to a 2 person race: Perry 52, Romney 36. Mitt needs to try to wrap it up before it gets to that point.

11:40: More evidence Bachmann has maxed out support- down 9 to Romney, 30 to Perry in national heads to heads

This poll shows he’s weak against Romney? What exactly are you on?

After a week he’s ahead in iowa and double digits nationally.

Oh and for people not wanting to believe a Democrat polster that’s fine..but RASS had Perry with a double digit national lead too. Perry could flame out....but right now his future is in his hands.

While Perry is not my favorite candidate, calling him a Romneyesque RINO is irresponsible. In fact, Perry may be the only one who can take out Mittens. If he does that early, it might result in a realignment of the supporters of other candidates around an even more conservative choice than Perry.

"The poll shows that Perry is still weak compared to Romney" when it shows him in the lead?

And "Perry might consider finally getting some traction against Romney." when Perry is killing Romney in nearly every poll (including Rasmussen by double-digits) despite the fact that he was hardly known by anyone prior to last week?

You're not making any sense whatsoever... go back to posting big pictures of aircraft carriers.

"The poll shows that Perry is still weak compared to Romney"

hmmm...22% for the guy that just announced vs 19% for the guy who's been campaigning for 3 years. Weak? Sure...whatever.

[Romney]who is HIDING for the most part."

Romney says new US Fed stimulus would risk inflation--Aug 22

Mitt Talks Libya and U.S. Job Creation with Neil Cavuto--Aug 23

Romney to roll out jobs plan in Nevada --Aug 23

Romney announces plan to build big ass house--Aug 21 (yeah I made this one up)
Doesn't exactly look like the schedule of somebody who is "hiding" to me.

"Perry might consider finally getting some traction against Romney."

I guess if somebody insist that the grass is purple even though it's obviously green there isn't much you can do. I would say though that Perry is well on his way to tractioning himself right into the White House.

As far as calling Perry a RINO, I guess the only option some people on the losing end of a political campaign have to them is to resort to name calling.

You really need to keep that PDS in check.
