they certainly needed a poll to counteract the good news that came out only a few days ago. I mean, come on- Rick Santorum? The man was never particularly popular, unless you are a fundamentalist Christian who wants to vote your fellow man out of their rights! He's such a joke- makes me wanna puke.

just behind Romney in the last poll that wasn't that long ago?? How'd it change this much? All because of Santorum winning three states on Tuesday??

Scarey as this is......

Submitted by jetmba on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 14:47.

Santorum has several things going for him.

#1. His radical views have not been properly vetted.
#2. He is young and good looking.
#3. He isn't Mormon.
#4. He appears sincere.
#5. He isn't Baggage-Car-Newt.
#6. People are sick of primaries and want a candidate.

As such, Santorum terrorizes me as he is on the same maniacly dictatorial level as Newt.

If HE beomes our nominee all is completely lost.

# 2?

#2? He does have a butt crack nose. Just sayin.

This is good for us

Submitted by valleyforge on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 14:46.

1. Santorum takes no support from Paul, only from Romney and especially Newt. Ron has been at 10-15% in every national poll except Reuters.

2. There's no reason to expect a Paul surge in this poll. We haven't won a state or made major news for awhile. So staying even is good.

3. About half the electorate is up for grabs. Romney may have a lock on 20%, Ron on 10-15%, and Santorum/Newt on 15-20% combined, but almost all of Santorum's current support is soft. These people said they supported Newt or Romney a week ago. and Newt's 17% will evaporate over the next couple weeks.

4. This is becoming a 3-man race. That makes Ron the alternative for people who don't like Mitt or Rick, and makes it easier to get higher votes in some primaries where 15-20% is required to get delegates.

We need to start winning some

Submitted by RedDot on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 14:23.

We need to start winning some states. Santorum is surging because he's getting positive news coverage from actually winning. I hate to say it, but it is not all that surprising that the one guy that has not won a state yet is polling last. Let's go get some states!!!

Santorum hasn't "won" any states yet

Submitted by GCN3030 on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 15:52.

Ron Paul is "winning" in Iowa, Nevada, Colorado and Minnesota according to Doug Wead who presumably has a better idea how many precinct delegates were Ron Paul supporters than the lame stream media. That being said of course it is media coverage propping up these zombie candidates, Ron Paul is winning battles the ground growing stronger everyday in spite of a maelstorm of blacked out and biased coverage.

It's pointless to put win in

Submitted by RedDot on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 16:52.

It's pointless to put win in quotes. You know exactly what I mean. Straw polls are not worthless. It is what gets reported in the news and is a good indicator of how popular a candidate is. Rick is gaining national momentum because he just won three states. Like it or not, it is important to start winning states, not just collecting a good portion of delegates.

It would be better for us to win some though.

Winning none or very few

Submitted by RedDot on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 16:54.

Winning none or very few states would make it close to impossible for Ron Paul to come out ahead at a brokered convention. He needs to gain some national momentum soon.

Santorum CAN'T "win"

Keep going to your caucuses, primaries, or whatever and do all you can to become a delegate! Forget the media BS and do what needs to be done!

going after Gingrich and Santorum supporters. Santorum is kicking our butt big time. I'm not being pessimistic, just realistic. Santorum is the only one other than Paul who is garnering enthusiasm.

Submitted by k.templar on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 14:11.

respectfully disagreeing. He is getting a lot of votes from people that don't want Romney, that are religious, etc. And he is getting people through media. I still highly doubt he has many delegates and that is where the real game is.

Of course that doesn't mean we can go jump in the lake and enjoy ourselves. Hard work must be done for months to come.

Santorum is not a delegate threat

Submitted by Dixie-Paleocon on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 14:48.

at the moment, but he will be come Super Tuesday and beyond. If Missouri (although I know it doesn't count) is any indicator of his momentum, he could seriously pull ahead in the heartland. I have talked with Gingrich and Santorum supporters and they are VERY open to Dr. Paul, much more so than Romney supporters.

Right

Voters are enthusiastic for Santorum like they are for a hip implant. Better than the alternative.

PPP typically does two nominally within ballpark polls to hook you in give a veneer, a semblance of legitimacy, only to spike it last minute... oh I don't know, say 14 pt spike the day before, followed by an additional 8pt spike EIGHT hrs prior to Iowa, as was the case for Frothy? a statistical impossibility? yeah, okay PPP. Piss Poor Punks.

PPP, the Dem.Party polling co, is as laughable as Rasmussen, their GOP couterpart.

it's getting almost ridiculous how obnoxiously fictitious all of these push polls are.

now we're supposedly being 'told to believe' that Frothy has become a 'conservative populist?'

ironic humor has its limits, but really?

supposedly the RINO idiots want to beat oBomBa, er... with a bigger RINO, whom outside of his little bubble of delusions, NO ONE likes? In fact, can't stand??

oooh the MSM sure wants a sure ringer, an assured loser to be nominated for GOP so oBomBa can be (s)elected winner in a landslide.

the only polling I'm gonna pay attention to is Zogby, and Dr.Paul's internal pollster Fritz Wenzel who used to work with Zogby. And, knowing Dr. Paul, he won't put up with BS: his polls are gonna be honest, good or bad.

so time to stop giving these jokers, especially PPP and Rasmussen, any gravitas or credibility. they deserve neither.
