Obama Crushes Perry In New Poll
The Business Insider ^ | 10/12/11 | Zeke Miller

Posted on 10/12/2011 3:35:02 PM PDT by perfect_rovian_storm

A new Rasmussen poll is pouring salt on Texas Gov. Rick Perry's wounds.

The struggling one-time front-runner is now trailing President Barack Obama in a head-to-head matchup 49 percent to 35 percent. Obama was leading Perry six or fewer points in two recent Rasmussen polls — and Perry narrowly polled ahead of Obama in early September.

Perry would fare worse than businessman Herman Cain, who in a poll last week trailed Obama 42 percent to 39 percent. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney polls even with Obama — the best of the Republican presidential candidates.

I support anyone who isn't Romney, Perry, Huntsman or Paul. I support conservatives.

Personal attacks are prohibited.

I haven't made any, n00b. Try being here a little longer before trying to parrot rules.

Please do not be offensive. You trash our Governor, and state and now the citizens.

>>I posted this to you on another thread but Perry just told New Hampshire students that the American Revolution took place during the 16th century.

So what? The typical American high school student today thinks that the American Revolution happened “back in the 50’s” and pitted Lincoln and MLK vs Hitler and “the guy that did something called Watergate” to free the slaves.

Please do not refer to Perry as LaRaza Rick. Polls mean nothing this early.

He has been in the race for a month. He still has to get everything up and running. Polls don’t mean anything this far out.

BTW, I don't need to supply you with anything. When you've been here a bit longer, you can learn to use the site to find your own answers. Just this once, though, I'll spoon-feed you.

Polling in Iowa in a distant 4th, back with Michele Bachmann

Distant third and falling in SC

4th again in NH

First I am a guy and second I do not collect any check from Perry. In fact I am sending him donations. Third what is this Perry fangirls childish name calling? How about you, are you collecting paychecks from Cain? You see it is very easy to make accusations, so grow up.

La Raza Rick was leading the polls a month ago. Now that people have gotten to know him and his dismal record, he's tanked. It didn't help that he called everyone 'heartless' either, but when you're a politician used to using invective to lash out at conservative opposition, old habits must die hard I guess.

Go ahead and accuse away. I like Cain, but I’m not here advocating for him. I’ll defend him from the slimy attacks of La Raza Rick’s paid team of mud throwers though.

I've been a Perry supporter and think he would be the best to take on Obama. I have been less than impressed ...actually disappointed...with his debate performances.

I would never vote for Romney in the primary. I was less and less impressed with Cain... lost me when he played the race card with Nigger head. I think his popularity will fade as more is learned about him.

I wish Newt didn't have so much baggage ...but I'm beginning to overlook it. LOL!

I have this day-dream...Obama debating Newt.

Sounds like you’re the one wailing like a child...lol. Typical of the cult-personality followers...break your bubble and you scream.

>> I get the impression from many Freepers’ posts that they’d rather have Romney as president, or even see Obama re-elected, over Perry.

It seems that way.

I am fully and completely on the Cain Train.

The Cain Train is missing a few cars!

I get the feeling that they want four more years of obama, because that is what a Rommey nomination will get. Either way they will get an obama. One may have light skin, but , they will both be obamas.

>> But why would Perry say that the American Revolution took place during the 16TH CENTURY?

Cuz he mistakenly subtracted instead of adding one to the year hundreds?

It’s like we’re stranded in the middle of the ocean with a few life boats none better than the others. Those that are missing ores, or taking in water, are intentionally being sunk out hysterical frustration instead of methodically preserving the viability of the vessels.
