PPP Poll - Texas GOP Primary

[Diurdi]

These are southern states though.

Texas would go for a northeast moderate over a conservative congressman from their own state? I have a hard time swallowing that one. Maybe it really is that bad, hopefully it's just too early to know.

Perry is not beating Gingrich and Romney in his own state?

 

[floridasun1983]

Winning changes everything. This is why I've been arguing Ron has to actually win something to have a chance for the nomination. He wins a state, and all this goes out the window as people suddenly believe he is "electable" and support swells.

Seriously what the hell is Ron going to do if he can't even win his own deep south state in a two way race against a NE moderate? What is the plan to get around this embarrassment? If Romney lost Massachusetts to us it would end him politically.

Mitt Romney is the greatest salesman in the world.

No....the American media is.

Nothing special about Romney.

 

[Student Of Paulism]

Mitt Romney is the greatest salesman in the world.

No, this guy was:

Told you guys, I live here Texas is F***ed up!

We were all saying SC was a lost cause less than 2 weeks ago. The race can change quickly.

this is very f***ed up...are they still pissed at the ground zero mosque thing over there or what?

Yes, but it will be a two-way race by then.

Neither is Paul.

 

[steph3n]

Perry is the gov, what do you expect? Even if Perry isn't getting the presidential vote here, he's been the tyrant in charge here and has lead to anti-liberty loving being the norm and loved.

 

[libertygrl]

Dammit Texas.

Whose really surprised by these results?? TX has been neo-con country for years now. (except maybe in Austin)

 

[icon124]

Old people ruined this country and they continue to do so today.

I agree...to be brutally honest they should not be allowed to vote anymore based on their horrible track record...at a minimum they need to take an I.Q. test.

 

[mavtek]

At least we beat Romney in one very important category! They are only voting for him based on them thinking he is the candidate, check it out!
Favorability
Ron 31%
Mitt 27%
When it's down to 2 we'll have to work hard to change their minds!

 

[AngryCanadian]

My god...this country is doomed.

The Neocons sure love wars don't they eh? i am sure Karma will happen if a war breaks.

Paul

18-29

0 to 22



We are perhaps only 8 years away from a complete shift in political influence. I hope some day the story line will be, 'how much freedom do we want?' No longer can we put up with 'how much freedom can you live without?'

 

[tennman]

Shit. Thanks for ruining my day.

 

[Forty Twice]

This is bull. I live in Texas and have yet to meet the first person who would vote for Romney. Most of my colleagues are for Paul but we are 25-45 yr old engineers. High school friends on Facebook like the Christian Conservatives like Gingrich, Perry, and Cain. But nobody likes Romney. Are these polls legit? Or do they tamper with them to give the same result as Diebold-altered voting results?

This PPP poll just does not correspond with what I see. And Texas is a pretty anti-Washington state.
