CNN/ORC Poll (Republican Primary)

Source: CNN

Perry 27%
Romney 14%
Palin 10%
Bachmann 9%
Giuliani 9%
Gingrich 6%
Paul 6%
Cain 2%
Johnson 2% * *
Huntsman 1%
Santorum 1%
McCotter * * *
Someone else (vol.) 3%
None/ No one (vol.) 5%
No opinion 3%

Some observations:

-- Perry with nearly twice as much support as Romney? Mittens is going to need to get nasty and soon.

-- Bachman below 10% Apparently there a finite amount of crazy to go around.

-- Gary Johnson, who nobody's heard of, is polling ahead of Jon Huntsman? Apparently there's a finite amount of sanity to go around.

1. Disturbing. America could be duped by another swaggering cowboy.

In a society dumbed down by 'reality' TV and consistently shown to be increasingly ignorant, it could happen again with some help from the corporate MSM.

9. you can wave goodbye to a whole lot more than that

Hell, under president Perry, humanity gets a nice head start in being fucked over for the rest of the 21st century.

3. yawn...not even a surprise...

since the LAME-stream media has done nothing but promote Gov. Crazy.

And as always with the RushTurd and T.HaterBaggers, the likes of ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, NPR, PBS FAIL, yup, FAIL to ask these RADICALS serious questions.

4. I was wondering why they were polling Orcs

Then I saw it was for the R primary and my confusion was abated.

5. No one has a really good lead. Too many candidates to tell what

8. The sample looks a bit small. But am I reading this poll correctly? The summaries suggest to me

the R-base consists mainly of Southern suburban Teaparty supporters, aged 50 or older

If that holds true and we do our work, 2012 could be a blow-away!

10. Perry is fresh...

as soon as the debates start happening and he makes gaffes, it'll probably change. He's the golden boy for now though. I would rather have him win than Romney, who would have a better chance against Obama.
