Ipsos/Reuters NATIONAL Poll: Ron Paul at 16%, second best against Obama

[sailingaway]

The CBS poll had Ron statistically tied with Obama yesterday, one point behind, but had Romney 2 pts ahead of Obama. this one has Romney 5 points down from Obama and Ron 7 points down. The next closest gives Obama a double digit lead.

Romney 30%
Gingrich 20%
Ron Paul 16%
Santorum 13%

considering how little the other states even know Ron, this is encouraging.

Wow. That is awesome!

 

[blazeKing]

This is actually reallly encouraging

 

[cdc482]

Yes! And Gingrich will implode very soon...

 

[Maximus]

Getting closer to a national tipping point

good news

This is amazing. Just think how that number would explode coming out of NH with a 1st/2nd place finish? We could overtake Gingrich in national polls in no time. Effectively making it a two man race before February when Super Tuesday starts. We could really win this.

YAY!

Wow, 16% nationally. What were people saying about 15% being the tipping point? Let's see some movement!

Id like to know where they poll these though. When Ron goes up in National Polls, it doesnt seem like its on the east coast or in the more southeastern states, since he doesn't poll well in those areas. I have a feeling the W and NW areas he is doing hella good, but have seen rarely any of those states to show polls. Seen a South Dakota poll posted here some weeks ago where he was in 1st.

I will be a most happy man if we can hit 20-percent.

Gingrich 17% (-8)
Santorum 12% (+8)
Perry 6% (-6)
Huntsman 4% (+0)

It sucks Gingrich still gets 20% after all that has come out about him. Who is supporting that clown?

Romney has a big lead now, but if we can get this down to a two man race hopefully then we can knock Romney down some, and of course, and more importantly, lift Paul up.

I hope some big donors get behind Paul, the grass-roots can only supply so much since so many of them are barely getting by now.

You watch too much MSM

According to the media, Huntsman is electable @ 4% and Ron Paul unelectable at 17% nationally LOLOLOLO
