That poll included Palin, perry always does worse when Palin is also in the poll, which she shouldn’t be since she’s not running

50% of SC voters for zero. do they even know what zero means there?
zero jobs for a start.

This poll has to be skewed as this is SC and there is no way they have 50%

[smoothsailing]

I noticed that, she got about 6%, Bachmann about 4%.

50% Disapprove of 0, 40% approve.

"Bachmann Losing Momentum While Cain Slowly Rising"


I think that Cain's performance in the debates is getting noticed. He and Newt are doing a good job of using the debates to articulate a conservative message to the public. Michele started out doing this as well but has got off message after losing support to Perry. She comes off now as desperate.

[HotKat]

I love Herman.

[smoothsailing]

Cain is a pleasure to listen too and Newt slaps the press around. I hope those guys stay in the race, they elevate it.

And Nearly 30% Say Obama’s a Muslim,

---

The person who persuaded them that Obama is a Muslim is Obama.

[Grunthor]

I like that Perry is leading BUT I discount any poll that adds in non-candidates.

And Nearly 30% Say Obama’s a Muslim

The remaining 70% should watch this

Actually, there is nothing to compare this with except for Feb. 2011...and it was Huckabee at the top. Rick Perry was not in their first and only other poll for 2011.

[smoothsailing]

Wow, the ping list post is looking good!

[smoothsailing]

Thanks for posting.

Here's a direct link...

Obama Admits he's a muslim

[shield]

Thanks. This poll isn’t something you can even believe. Besides, it comes out of a university. I looked at the archived poll for Feb. It is about as dumb as this one is.

[smoothsailing]

Oh well, I’m no expert on polling, just figured since it was specific to South Carolina it was noteworthy.
