Texas Gov. Rick Perry has tumbled among GOP primary voters and now trails business executive Herman Cain in the race for the nomination, according to the latest IBOPE Zogby Poll.
Perry, at 18 percent, has tumbled by more than 20 percentage points over the past month, according to IBOPE Zogby numbers and is now second to Herman Cain, who leads the field with 28 percent.

OOooops, I meant
McCain / Palin!
Good idea.;)
That is really a shame :(
It is almost as if much of the black population is suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, and have identified with their captors, the democrat party.
Now doesn’t Mrs. Cain look like the kind of Lady you’d want as a First Lady? What a sweetie.
I wish Cain would clarify his position on gun control. What I’ve seen is an interview where he says he supports the 2nd Amendment and doesn’t believe in onerous legislation that prevents people from exercising their 2nd Amendment right, but in the next breath he says gun control is a states rights issue.
Wow.
I heard other polls still have Perry in front.
Hate to get my hopes up.

(Palin/Cain)
Those words have been inside my brain for a while now. Thanks for articulating them. Palin and Cain are the two I hold in highest regard and would love for them to team up. And we know that a debate between those two would be a whole lot smarter and more civil than the Rino hair club twins.
That sounds right. The federal govt is bound by the 2nd amendment to the constitution and cannot legally ban guns, but the individual states have the rights and the freedoms to enact their own laws. No conflict in Mr. Cain’s views. If one doesn’t like the strict laws that California has, they can head east to Arizona and enjoy mush more firearm freedoms. I’m sure many other adjacent states are in similar situations.
Cain seems like a much smarter man than the effeminate Marxist waif mincing around the golf courses and taking joy rides in air force one while fundamentally ruining our country.
Irrelevant to politics, but have you heard Cain sing? Wonderful voice! Google it and be inspired.

I didn't know that. Lincoln trained himself to think logically by studying Euclid's Elements. Grant's desire was to be a college mathematics professor (before that little war thing came along).
I heard Michael Savage (of all people) all but endorse Cain the other day, although the tape was a few weeks old. He had a great interview with Herman Cain. That picks up a LOT of Conservative/Independent votes right there. Millions of listeners.
OK, everyone, repeat after me:
“This is not a poll; it’s an Internet survey with self-selected participants.”
Zogby asks people to sign up for e-mails, and then e-mails them once or twice a week asking if they want to participate in his latest “poll.” Presumably he only sends this “poll” to those who had indicated that they were Republicans, but that doesn’tmean much, since I’m sure that a lot of Democrats pretend to be Republicans for these surveys (I had some fun with Zogby in 2004 myself, pretending to be a Gore-voting Democrat from New Hampshire who nonetheless preferred Bush over every possible Democrat ).
I’m not sure what it really means, if anything, that Herman Cain “wins” by a plurality in this survey, but I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that Cain also led in Zogby’s interactive survey back in May, and no one conducting real polls showed Cain anywhere near the top at any time in the spring or summer. It would be terrific if Cain really did shoot to the top of the polls, but this Internet survey is certainly not an example of tbat occurring.
Here’s Zogby’s write-up; make sure to notice where he says that it’s a self-selected sample and that he still added some “Zogby sauce” so that his sample supposedly matches the Republican electorate as a whole by geography, race, etc.: http://www.ibopezogby.com/news/2011/09/26/ibope-zogby-poll-perry-plummets-18-trails-cain-lead-among-gop-primary-voters/
I am SO thrilled to see Cain doing well. I have loved him from the beginning. He’s the real deal. I believe the more Americans get to know this man, the more momentum he’s going to build.
I find it funny the media, even Greta, keeps trying, BEGGING, to bring race and his color into it. Cain, laughingly, could care less — he has only one thing on his mind — and that is growing this economy and bringing this country back up to speed on all fronts as a result.
I believe he’s the right man for the times. A real quality individual. And he will graciously, by quiet example, relegate these racist leftist black caucus nincompoops to the trash bin.
He will lift ALL boats.
Of course you did. Those were old polls being drudged up by those who want to keep Perry relevant.
