Perry is cooked. Now we have to get Rodney outta there.

[TADSLOS]

EJECT, EJECT, EJECT!!!

[R0CK3T]

What I think this means is that to the GOP, if we are going to go with a flawed candidate then they would prefer to take their chances with Cain over a proven RINO like Romney ...and Perry is imploding.

[petercooper]

Cain is flawed?

[MestaMachine]

Whoah! Imagine that.

[palmer]

Yes, Cain is flawed and so is every other candidate and non-candidate. The question is whose values do we want? Who is most likely to take on established interests and make real cuts at numerous useless departments? Who is the most pro-business candidate?

[Future Useless Eater]

Thanks, and nice job!

I was wondering how to access their timeline for those polls.

Do you have any idea if Real Clear Politics trusts the Economist/YouGov polling data?

Another poll shows Herman Cain way ahead of the field

I still haven't warmed up to newt, maybe never will. But, he has the best ideas and sets himself apart from the rest with bold thinking.

Saying he will oppose the continuation of Agenda 21 and that we should look into the potential lawbreaking of Chris Dodd and Barney Frank got my attention.

The fact that the media immediately shied away from mentioning those issues makes them even more important and relevant, to me.

[South40]

Thanks.

It's unclear why they don't use the Economist/YouGov polling data. Trust, or lack thereof, could be an issue.

[South40]

I like Newt but he really damaged his credibility with this.

This, precisely. I have my qualms with Cain, but if it's down to a choice between him and a couple professional flim-flam artists, Cain wins. Total no-brainer.

N-i-c-e post-—watching Ricky drop like a lead balloon sure made my day.

[South40]

:-)

I've been watching these graphs for weeks and saving them along the way. The numbers tell a story also. Perry is dropping still and Romney is dead in the water. So much for the Perry supporters' contention that our opposing Perry has helped Romney. :-P

Thanks for posting this. It’s not really necessary to save and post the earlier ones, because their data is contained in the latest one, just the portions of the lines extending left.

[Interesting Times]

That’s just amazing.

I can’t recall a similar reversal in any previous primary.

[going hot]

But, But, But, Cain has no money, Perry raised 17m, Romney is the shoe in. How can this be.

Obviously crooked and cooked numbers, nobody believes this poll anyway.

Only polls that show the candidate in good light should be counted.

Yada yada yada

[Amerikan_Samurai]

If the election were today, the Republican candidates look abysmal.

The key question for whoever the Republican candidate for President turns out to be, will he have enough to beat obama?

I fear that if it were Romney, he would not have enough to beat obama, giving zero four more years to destroy the country.

[R0CK3T]

No your right, Cain is not a flawed candidate.

My point is that he is imperfect in that he has no political experience so that makes him an unknown.

He also doesn’t have the backing/money/organization that Romney has.

I still like him so far as the nominee although so far I am not too crazy about the 9/9/9 plan, but I can overcome that if he continues to impress.

Screw Romney, Cain is the better nominee.
