Romney trounces Perry in Michigan GOP straw poll
 
From National Journal -

MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich. - In a rout, Republican presidential candidate
Mitt Romney trounced Rick Perry and the rest of the GOP field to win the
National Journal Hotline/National Association of Home Builders Straw
Poll of GOP activists attending a weekend conference in Michigan.

Romney received 51 percent of the 681 votes cast, a whopping
34-percentage point victory over second-place Perry, who garnered 17
percent. It was the second straight defeat for Perry in a straw poll,
after he finished second in another contest Saturday in Florida. The
twin disappointments, along with weak debate performances, have raised
questions about whether the Texas governor will remain the perceived
front-runner in the GOP nomination fight.

Romney grew up in suburban Detroit and in the Michigan governor's
mansion; his father, George Romney, served as the state's chief
executive from 1963 to 1969. Michigan is likely to hold its presidential
nomination contest on Feb. 28, a week before Super Tuesday. It is also
an important state in the general election contest.

Both Romney and Perry addressed the conference Saturday, and while Perry
took subtle digs at his GOP rival, Romney denounced President Obama's
economic leadership. "I just don't think he's equipped for what's
happening," the former Massachusetts governor said.

Third place in the Hotline straw poll went to former Godfather's Pizza
CEO Herman Cain, who won the Florida poll Saturday. He received 9
percent of the votes among Michigan Republican activists.

Among the other vote-getters:

· Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, 8 percent

· Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, 4 percent.

· Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich of Georgia, 4 percent.

· Former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, 3 percent

· Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, 2 percent.

might be a problem for you Racist Democrats.

Stop the presses!
Home town boy wins beauty contest.
Santorum won Pennsylvania and I imagine Perry would win in Texas.
Mox Nix


Perhaps. The last person I want to see win the GOP nomination is Romney.
He's the only non-crackpot front-runner, and therefore he could win in a
general election. What could be better for us Dems than a Perry, Cain,
Bachmann, Palin nominee? :)

Good. As Harvard/Yale have a **** poor record. Need someone not from
the old boys golden handshake club. Perry is an old boys school puppet.

Too bad liberal fleabagg'in left so much hates women, I still think
Bachmann would make an excellent choice. I prefer honesty and integrity
to pandering any time. As why is really wrong with DC is they have no
integrity and loaded with dishonor.

Bachmann has no integrity or honesty. Romney holds earned degrees from
Harvard graduate schools. You are as dumb as a post.

Yup Romney actually has business experience. What's O/bama's experience?
Rabble rouser?
I wonder how many "I love me" books Romney has had written for him?

What, that fear of women making you smear? We know from your previous
posts about your hate for empowered women that don't need old boys club
hand-ups to make it. So did a woman ride or fire your for incompetence
in the past?

But yes, I keep getting Perry and Romney mixed up, Perry is Texas A&M -
my bad. They almost look like they could be brothers.

Harvard successful types:

Barack Obama - US President, head of the biggest debtor of them all.
Michael Ignatieff - LPC Leader, wants more debt and taxes and lost.
Paul Stern - Former NorTel CEO that started the NorTel screw-up.
Rick Wagoner - Former GM CEO, bankrupt.
Robert Nardelli - Chrysler CEO, bankrupt.
Stephen Feinberg - Cerberus/Chrysler and GMAC, bankrupt.

See the pattern? Enron too.. a long history of Harvard screw ups and
debt corruption, it isn't just corrupt NA auto. Harvard leaders are not
all they are cracked up to be, in fact I consider it a liability.

Harvard sure is no guarantee of success, and for many, just corruption.

They are all taught from the same book. No imagination, no integrity. No
independence.

Are you on drugs? I have no issues with smart, "powerful" women. Palin
and Bachmann do not fall into the "smart" category.
