[acroso]

YEAAHHHHH!!!!!!! (http://rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/election_20082/2008_presidential_election/illinois/illinois_republican_presidential_primary)


Only 6% behind Suckabee

[Mystile]

I think that's in Illinois.

[dfalken]

That's Illinois not national.

[dblee]

41% of voters were primarily concerned with the economy yet they thought MCCAIN could help them????!????

[Karsten]

He's at 11% nationally in a hypothetical 3rd party run.

No, I think that's RP + Bloomberg.

[hellsingfan]

if so many consider economy the top issue, then why the hell do they not learn about it!!! RP is the only choice if you're concerned about economy, for that matter all the other problems as well!!!

Because most Americans are lazy...pure and simple.

[Vet_from_cali]

we need more than 10% for the nomination.....

[dfalken]

No, I think that's RP + Bloomberg.

No, it's ron Paul alone against Hitlery and McPain...bloomberg pulls in another 4% in that lineup so 15% between Paul and Bloomberg.

[AlexMerced]

if Mccain is the nominee Ron Paul would poll 11%

If romney paul would poll 7%

bloomber poll 6% in both occasions

it is a very interesting report that really raises my optimism for the dent we can make IF we did end up going independent. Again, it's about spreading the message, with those kinda numbers we should definetley continue spreading the message while we can.

no, ron pual is at 11% and bloomberg at 5% in the 3rd party scenario
just imagine, bloomberg garnering 10 % due to his huge finances and further splitting the pro/war ticket......

that would help us tremendosouly

linky?

Yeah, I just saw the source. Actually, it's even better. It's 11% for McCain vs. Obama! They didn't address McCain vs. Hillary. OTOH, it might hurt us in that conservative Republicans might vote McCain just to avoid getting Hitlery in office.


Will Michael Bloomberg, Ron Paul Run Third Party Campaigns in 2008?

rasmussenreports.comWed Jan 30, 12:16 PM ET

Twenty-six percent (26%) of American voters believe New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is at least somewhat likely to make a third-party or independent bid for the White House in 2008. That includes 5% who say he is Very Likely to do so.

Twenty-nine percent (29%) say that Texas Congressman Ron Paul will run as an alternative to the two major parties. Eleven percent (11%) believe he is Very Likely to do so.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that roughly 15% of voters would currently vote for one of these two candidates in general election match-ups.

When the two candidates are mentioned as independent options in match-ups between Mitt Romney and the two Democratic frontrunners, Paul and Bloomberg attract roughly the same level of support. When John McCain is mentioned as the Republican candidate in a match-up with Barack Obama, Ron Paul earns 11% of the vote while Bloomberg attracts 5%.

At this time, the net impact of such third party efforts appears to benefit the Democrats.

In a head-to-head match-up between Romney and Obama, Obama currently leads by nine percentage points. When Bloomberg and Paul are added to the list of possible candidates, Obama's lead grows to twelve points, 42% to 30%. Paul attracts 8% of the vote, Bloomberg 6%.

Hillary Clinton leads Romney by five in a head-to-head match-up, but her lead grows to fourteen points with Bloomberg and Paul in the mix—Clinton 46% Romney 32% Bloomberg 7% Paul 7%.

In a McCain-Obama poll, the Democrat leads by five. That grows to seven points with the third party options—Obama 40% McCain 33% Paul 11% Bloomberg 5%.

The pair of third party candidates attract from 13% to 17% of Republicans in each match-up. They earn only 5% to 10% of the Democratic vote.

Because you're not understanding the poll results. You're called up and asked what's your top issue or read off a list, it doesn't really matter, you'll just pick one. It's not unlike a push poll. With the subjective interpretation you don't know absolute levels of 'care' or what caring about the economy even means. Maybe that means tax hikes and more socialism to some people.

Hey watch the name calling huck supporters are starting to join this forums - I know I hate it when other republicans call RP Dr. Nutz or Dr. Moonbat/Wingbat, crazy or a kook!

+1 Huck supporters tend to at least respect Ron Paul. Notice that Huckabee only rebuts Ron in the debates. He doesn't smirk or laugh.

How do you know that Huckabee supporters are joining this forum? For what purpose.... more spying?

I actually gained some respect for Huck. You are right, he disagrees, but does not mock.

The way in which McCain displays smugness is just sickening. How could anyone vote for someone that acts like this?

Polling 11% in a McCain-Obama-Paul race is huge...I imagine that the number would be higher with Hillery. The worst scenario for our country but the best scenario for an independent run is Hillary-McCain as the nominees. Of course, the only way to really have a viable run is to get in the debates, and I don't see that happening.

Yeah they are staring to join and post - showing solidarity in the cnn blackout in the debates of Huck and Paul
