The fate of the nation is at stake and 40% of NC voters are less likely to vote for Perry, because 20 years ago he made an unkind statement about the taste of NC barbecue?!
God knows there are enough valid reasons NOT to vote for Perry without having to resort to that silly reason.

We are traditionally vinegar based.
Tomato based would be faux barbecue to us, but to each his own.

Romney opposed the two most successful conservative policy efforts of the last 30 years... the Reagan policies of the 1980`s and the Contract With America of the 1990`s.

A Essay on Mitt Romney. Its damning.

This is PPP, a worthless polling group.

I live in NC, and I keep my ear to the ground.

Obama doesn’t have even a slim chance of winning here.

it does point out that in the black community, the color of the skin rules.

and.... the prevailing doldrums in the non-black community.

They didn’t include Herman Cain in the poll or did they forget to mention those figures because Mr. Cain may be favored over the bamster?

I didn’t see Herman Cain in the Poll?

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Bingo. That speaks volumes about their agenda and about their intelligence (often highly correlated).

This poll is worth less than worthless.

The Left, in their fact-free world, substitutes shittily done polls for facts and news.

he won’t win NC, he won’t win VA.. Their internals have him dragging the democrats down in just about every twist and turn. This is why they loosed the dogs this past month.
He’s in line to lead the party to the single worst defeat in electoral history and they need to do whatever they can to suppress the vote, especially the military and divide the opposition using any means necessary. They have the media, they have the guilt riddled idle rich and they have the unwitting assistance of the useful idiots that “won’t vote for this republican because (insert mindless, stupid reason here)...”
They wish to do more damage to our country in the next 14 months than the Soviets, Chinese, Germans, Japanese and all that wished ill on us since our inception combined.

We can’t fall into their trap. We must take them down, now because they’ll make sure we’ll never have the chance again. This is no parlor game people, this is for all the marbles.

Uh, oh. Cancel the election. Obama has turned the corner and is thoroughly trashing the Republican candidates with a statistically insignificant lead in a single poll.

“No, West of Greensboro, they are tomato based, East is vinegar based.”

That is a misconception. A squirt of ketchup into 12 oz of vinegar, pepper flakes and other spices is not a “base”.

“The same North Carolina that went for Obama in ‘08. The good folks of the Tar Heel State have gone absolutely nuts. What is wrong with the people of North Carolina? “

NE and Mid-Atlantic liberals re-locating to NC is what is wrong.

“Overall, 42 percent of North Carolinians say they prefer Eastern-style barbecue to 26 percent who go for Western-style barbecue; another 32 percent said they were not sure. “

Obviously the majority of those polled live in or east of Rawlee.

They probably took the poll someplace like RTP, or Chapel Hill, or Asheville, or some like place that is either 100% black, 100% liberal college town, or 100% filled with invaders from the commie states up north.

Perry is right about Carolina-style BBQ, it does taste pretty bad.

:-P

But then, beef is the only true BBQ meat. Pork is an unholy abomination to all things BBQ.

And chicken is just... meh.
