. . . and Rand at 6 % among men but only 2% among women
(Both listed in item/question 37)
 
Wikipedia says "YouGov specialises in market research through online methods. The company’s methodology involves obtaining responses from an invited group of internet users, and then weighting these responses in line with demographic information"
 
I'm not terribly familiar with this poll, but I'm at a loss as to why Rick Perry has even bothered staying in this race, he's competing for a vote that is already being split 4 ways (evangelicals) and he has virtually no staff and has already committed so many gaffes that he won't be able to live them down. I get why Graham is sticking around as he's there to constantly harp about foreign policy (though they already have Krispy Kreme for that, so he's basically pointless too). I also think it's amusing that they didn't even bother including Jim Gilmore in this poll, why is he running again?

Seriously, can the dead weights just drop out so we can dispense with this 2-tier debate nonsense?
 
Graham was asked to run by the RNC to help Jeb win South Carolina by further splitting the anti-Jeb vote. Attacking Rand on foreign policy was a bonus for the establishment.

Right now it all seems pretty pointless with the way the race is going, but hey; not much point in his dropping out, either.

This pretty much goes the same for Perry and Texas.

Let's be totally honest with ourselves. Carson is only where he is because he is black. A white guy with the exact same qualifications wouldn't get anywhere couldn't even get near the debate stage. Man the Republican party sure is "racist" isn't it?

It is racist. You just explained why it is.
