Shouldn't Romney be at 70% in NH? He has a home in NH. He's been running for 6 years.

great news for obama

Romney will never be elected president of the US

bookamrk this for Nov 2012

Aside from NH, Cain will likely take the rest at his current rate of ascent. He’ll probably rise higher in NH, too, but NH has become fairly irrelevant. Look as far ago as 1964 when Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. won it and he went nowhere.

BTW, I have to add, too, that any poll that simply does "registered voters" can essentially be written off. You've got to poll likely voters to get a better idea of how it is really leaning.

I think with many more debates coming up, the polls will be continuously changing... Apparently the media is even guessing Santorum could have a spike in polls: http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/gop-presidential-primary/189783-will-santorum-be-next-flavor-of-the-month

I agree. I think he’s a WIMP and when Obama goes negative on him Romney won’t fight back because he’s a wimp

“NEW POLLS SHOW ROMNEY AHEAD IN FIRST FOUR STATES”

Polls?

This is ONE poll in with a decided leftest bent several states. The margin of error is almost 5%. It’s meaningless and doesn’t jive with any of the other polls taken during this timeframe which show romney behind almost everywhere except NH.

I have a feeling that the Republican ticket will be Cain/Romney or Romney/Cain. It seems that if one of them become the nominee, the other one would be picked for VP.

Another 405 person BIASES CNN poll.

Who would pay any attention to a Commie/Time poll?

[floridarunner01]

The perception that is out there is that Romney is the only one that can beat Obama. Not sure why that perception is there, but it is, and it’s tough to crack.

[veritas2002]

I’m in SC and Romney will NOT be getting my vote - in the primaries or in the gnerla election.

I refuse any longer to let the leftist media select my Republican candidate. If he’s the candidate, I’ll be relaxing at the beach in November 2012.

[ClearCase_guy]

That perception is fostered by the media, which is counting on the fact that it is a lie. Romney is very vulnerable and Obama’s best shot at a second term is to run against Romney. Therefore, the media pushes the idea that “Romney is the only one that can beat Obama”.

Since it is a cnn/time poll I take it with a grain of sand {no, Ziva, it's salt}, it's like a needle in a needle stack.

If you assume that the poll is correct and Cain comes in 2nd in the first four races, he will be the odds on favorite because there will be several weeks with no primary activity when the losers will drop out and if it comes down to Cain vs mittens, in the remaining 53 states, Cain wins.

Cain is a heavy favorite in the seven states that mittens has never been to and right before he died, the "corpse-man" told Herman how to get to those states.

Even obummer may not be able to find those states again in this election cycle.

[Doc Savage]

Cannot! Will not! Never!

[Rebelbase]

I agree. CNN probably polled 405 democrats.

[wolfcreek]

If? Barry’s gonna go negitive on whoever the nominee happens to be.

That’s his MO.

[upchuck]

Romney leading Cain in our reddest of the red states? I seriously doubt it. I call BS on this "noise" poll.

I do not believe this poll and/or the poll from rinoid weakly standard... but those (party leaders) that THINK that they are our masters... are known to us as liars, cheaters and thieves. IF they nominate romney... you guys will have to elect him without my vote. I would rather slide down a 50 foot razorblade and slip into a cool pool of alcohol before I would ever vote for that socialist arsehole!

DO NOT BLAME ME if obama wins... if you guys in the primary states allow the progressive leaders of both parties to nominate mitt... IT WILL BE THE FAULT OF THOSE OF YOU IN THE PRIMARY STATES WHERE IT HAPPENED!

The drive-by media is trying to tell the people that Romney will be the candidate and that Obama is ahead of Romney in Arizona by 5 points....and that Obama still has complete and strong support from the African-American community.

This is one of the tactics they are using and it will be used even more in the days ahead.
