Only a one point increase from their poll 12 days ago for Paul. January 13th to 17th they polled...obviously I think the debate stumped growth.

 

[jersdream]

We got a one point increase from 12 days ago...probably would have been more, but I'm sure the debate hurt us in part..

"likely GOP voters"

Anyone know if they included Indies?

 

[Lord Xar]

It is an open primary. Just including repubs only is dishonest.

 

[AngryCanadian]

Well Paul better do well on the CNN Debate.

 

[ronpaulfollower999]

Fox News was pumping a Gingrich surge this afternoon.

 

[AngryCanadian]

Does South Caroline Know Newt was a Draft Dodger?
So why vote for that lying war monger?

they do it to hurt Paul, just like they did in Iowa.

It always does, if the state is Open. ...unless they do stupid crap like CNN did in their second to last poll before the Iowa caucus.

 

[PastaRocket848]

bad, bad, bad. not looking good in SC, and if it isn't looking good there, it doesn't bode well for anywhere else. that debate hurt.

 

[RonPaul101.com]

Paul need to hit at Santorum. Why would SC follow the mistakes of Iowa and vote for this minor-leager who "may" have a couple of weeks left in this election?

We need third as a minimum, 4th would be awful. There will be time to tackle Mitt and Newt after FL, but we must tread above Perry and Santorum at least.

 

[jersdream]

About 25% of those polled were not republicans.

The poll surveyed 1,508 adults, including 472 registered Republicans, by telephone between Jan. 13 and 17 in Florida, and identified 391 likely voters. In South Carolina, a total of 1,525 adults were interviewed over the same time period and 505 likely voters were identified. All respondents were asked about their registration status and basic demographics, and the sample was weighted to reflect statewide Census figures for gender, race, age, education and region of the state. The results carry a sampling error of +/-5 percentage points in Florida and +/-4.5 points in South Carolina.

relax, there's another debate between now and then and still plenty of campaigning to do... the impact of the Romney file is just beginning to be felt, and people will soon remember who Gingrich is
