Rick Perry's led the Republican field in every Southern state that we've polled since he entered the Presidential race...until now. Mitt Romney continues to lead the way in Florida with 30% to 24% for Perry, 10% for Gingrich, 8% for Ron Paul, 7% for Herman Cain, 6% for Michele Bachmann, 3% for Jon Huntsman, 2% for Rick Santorum, and 1% for Gary Johnson.
Perry had a poor debate performance in Florida Thursday night and our results suggest that the negative coverage he received from that did hurt him some in the state. We started this poll on Thursday night before the debate and in those interviews the race was neck and neck with Romney at 33% and Perry at 31%. But in interviews done Friday-Sunday Romney's lead expanded to double digits at 29-19. More telling might be what happened to Perry's favorability numbers after the debate- on Thursday night he was at 63/23 with Florida Republicans. Friday-Sunday he was at 48/36. Perry's poor performance may or may not prove to be a game changer nationally but it definitely appears to have hurt his image in the key state where it occurred.

Cain is still at 7% in Florida. That’s not funny.
The new Fox poll does have Cain in 3rd place at 17%. Just behind Perry in 2nd place at 19%. Romney now leads the pack at 22%. So you can say nationally Cain is moving up. At least according to Fox News.
Really? What a frigging joke Milt is.
Cue in Perrydactyls——foaming at the mouth.
FALSE DICHOTOMY.
I will not praise one loser just to avoid “helping” another.
To hell with both of them. I think Perry is the better one but not by that much. They have much more in common with each other than either has with ‘tea party’ conservatism.
First, I love how polls matter for Perry Fan...right up until his pet candidate starts hurting in them.
Since when? I was laughing my *ss right off onto the floor. What a steaming pile...
My advice to “His Rickness” for the next debate:
Go out wearing only a loincloth and a cowboy hat.
WINNER!!!
Everybody tends to do that.
Poll shows your guy down: “The poll is biased”.
Poll shows your guy ahead: “Yay!!!”
“...wants to bust employers that hire illegals...”
HEY MITT, WHAT ABOUT THE WETBACKS MOWING YOUR LAWN IN BELMONT???
He needs to get over the repeatedly about that!!!
Meant to ping you guys to #64 as well.
You bad!!! LOL... that IS how worthless debates are...
Thank you!
All I know is if I’m giving up one night a month in the “Lady Godiva Nude Room” in Providence, RI to donate that money to “His Rickness”, he better frigging win!!!
Very nice picture..THANKS...
If Perry is having a problem perhaps he should take a look in the mirror? Whining is not a Republican value.
Pray for America
Look Sarah isn’t running and Cain is being used and can’t win...so you’d better make your decision...Perry or Mittens. There is a huge difference between them if you’d care to truly research them both.

you are seriously giving any creedence to a poll like PPP ?
you are unaware of how these liberal garbage “polls” are used as propaganda to dupe and manipulate people ?
please wake up and try to understand how these things work.
Second, to put it in clear and simple terms so Texas folks will understand, when you’re perceived as the top gun, everybody wants to try you. So you better either be the best shot and quick on the draw, get there in a hurry or hang up the guns and get out, before you run into a better shot and a faster draw.
