""PRESIDENCY 5 RESULTS

In a stunning upset Saturday, Herman Cain won Florida’s Presidency 5 straw poll, a vote of 2,657 Republican activists that in past years has predicted the party nominee. Here are the results:

Herman Cain: 37 percent

Rick Perry: 15 percent

Mitt Romney: 14 percent

Rick Santorum: 10.9 percent

Ron Paul: 10.4 percent

Newt Gingrich: 8 percent

Jon Huntsman: 2.3 percent

Michelle Bachmann: 1.5 percent""

Yes, this is equally damning for Romney. the media is once again singling out Perry. Perry stunk it up and beat Romney, who has by traditional standards performed above expectations. This is absolutely a huge setback for both Perry and Romney.

Now, Cain is someone I can vote FOR (not just against Zer0)

The American people do not want Obama lite, no more rinos or leftists.

[CommieCutter]

YES!

Less than one-tenth of one percent of Florida’s voting population. A potential indicator, and I like that the Tea Party candidates are getting ahead... But naming Cain “electable” simply for getting less than 1000 folks to vote for him might be just a bit premature.

First off...straw polls are meaningless...if they were so right then why did Bachmann only received 1.5% when she won the last straw poll?

Now that me straighten out the headline:
Herman Cain wins Florida straw poll in stunning victory; Rick Perry Mitt Romney in deep trouble

Who is Scott Toomey?

 

 

HERMAN: What happens now?

Toomey: Well, now, uh, Ken Mehlman, R. Clarke Cooper, Meghan McCain, Mary Cheney and I wait until nightfall, and then leap out of the log cabin, taking The Party(tm) by surprise -- not only by surprise, but totally unarmed!

HERMAN: Who leaps out?

Toomey: Uh, Ken Mehlman,  R. Clarke Cooper, Meghan McCain, Mary Cheney and I. Uh, leap out of the log cabin, uh and uh....

HERMAN: Oh....

Toomey: Oh.... Um, l-look, if we built this large wooden Rhinocerous -- [twong]

ALL:  Run away!  Run away!  Run away!  Run away!

Cain deserved that win. I heard him speak at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference and he really wowed the crowd. Love him!

[Two Thirds Vote Aye]

Hey. Go Herman! I love Herman, Michele and Rick Santorum. I was just watching this and didn't even finish it. Perry appears extremely uncomfortable by the middle around our Hebrew brothers. What do you think? Perry with Rabbis
