Progress i guess?

All of a sudden pawlenty nearly triples?

This happens all the time when a candidate gets a big bump in name recognition, but his positions are still fairly unknown. If we hammer him on Cap and Trade support and health care mandate support, his unfavorables will go up....

[The Dark Knight]

2nd place is up for grabs without Palin. Ron is well within the margin of error. Romney is sinking.

[jrskblx125]

Everyones got a shot right now. The dirt needs to come out. The lies need to be addressed. Exposing the fakes for what they are is going to be tough without scandals.

Pawlenty supported the health care mandate?

[trey4sports]

better than i expected after yesterdays news. Within 9% w/ or w/o Palin is good news. We're in the thick of the race boys.

[trey4sports]

Pawlenty supported the health care mandate?

i believe he is on record saying a mandate is whats needed, pre-Obama, of course. GOP <3's mandates except when it's an evil, secular-socialist President proposing it :eek:

[specsaregood]

Pawlenty supported the health care mandate?

He did in Minnesota at least, just like Romney I guess.

I hate Herman Cain

I hate Herman Cain

It's not the candidates. It's the voters who don't spend enough time studying the issues that affect the country.

[SilentBull]

I hate Herman Cain

This is exactly what they needed him for. They needed someone for people to talk about while they wait for other candidates to enter the race. He's just a tool. His numbers will drop later. He's only there now to hurt Ron Paul's chances.

What is with the stupid rapture questions? That is only for the liberal hacks who run PPP to laugh at the supposedly ignorant "Bible-thumpers". I mean, asking GOP voters about Camping's ridiculous prediction just shows their bias, and then releasing who those voters support is just intended to make those candidates look crazy because Campingites support them. The sample was so small of them (2% of 574 is 11-12 voters) that it was not in anyway responsible to release those numbers.

Good, we just need to keep on pointing out the other candidate's weak points.

[James Madison]

Ok. Question. Why does Ron continue to poll so poorly with women?

[ItsTime]

We are where we want to be. Cain and Romney are peaking. We are taking the steady rise approach.

They don't want to sleep with him.
