Who Will You Be Voting For In 2012 - Romney, Obama, or Perry?
 

Who Will You Be Voting For In 2012?

Bachmann.

It will PROBABLY be Obama/Perry.

Maybe Obama/Romney if Perry blows up.

Bachmann and Paul may still be around, but neither one stands a chance.

Voting is for pussies.

If Ron Paul separated himself from the Right, and ran as an Independent, he would have a better chance. In the end, this plan would likely syphon off more Republican voters than Democratic voters, but it would certainly shake things up!

i will never waste my time voting again... :2 cents:




.

who is the bagger candidate?

Rick Perry

I know it's easy to drop-out, and not vote at all, but as long as ANYONE else is going to vote, you should always do your part, or you will have no voice.

People have been willing to die for voting rights the world over, and that basic right is still something many people continue to fight and die for, even today.

Sometimes it is easy to succumb to cynicism... especially these days, but if you don't vote, you really shouldn't be allowed to complain about any elected official.

Perry lol... he'll disappear from that list. Thankfully.

Why not Pawlenty?

Anything is possible... I just reduced it down to the two who are most likely.

Still not behind anyone yet

Ron Paul :thumbsup

dont worry..

fox news will tell you who you are going to vote for soon... :1orglaugh




.

Choosing one of these is like choosing which leg I would rather have cut off.

Why didn't you add Ron Paul to the list?

MSNBC or the men wearing the tin foil hats will do the same for you :1orglaugh

I haven't been watching news lately, I get my info from you

Does it matter who is elected at this point?

Rule # 1-No incumbent will ever get my vote again :321GFY







(that being said Ron Paul FTW)






(but only for 1 term, see rule #1)

Romney vs Obama, I'll vote Romney.
Perry vs Obama, I'll vote Obama.

None of the above...

Ron Paul

Drill Baby Drill!

Definitely NOT Obama.

Not the Yankee

I would likely do the same. Perry is a right wing nutjob and Obama is a disappointment. Maybe something could happen between now and the election that would lead me to want to vote for Obama, but likely I would choose Romney over him.

On a side note, it doesn't matter who I vote for because of out outdated and ineffective electoral college system. I live in a very liberal state that will swing for Obama so I could vote for Ringo Starr and it would have the same effect.

ron paul if by some miracle he is the candidate

2011 Straw Poll Full Results (Votes, %)
1. Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (4823, 28.55%)
2. Congressman Ron Paul (4671, 27.65%)
3. Governor Tim Pawlenty (2293, 13.57%)
4. Senator Rick Santorum (1657, 9.81%)
5. Herman Cain(1456, 8.62%)
6. Governor Rick Perry (718, 3.62%) write-in
7. Governor Mitt Romney (567, 3.36%)
8. Speaker Newt Gingrich (385, 2.28%)
9. Governor Jon Huntsman (69, 0.41%)
10. Congressman Thad McCotter (35, 0.21%)

Means nothing though. Only once has the winner of the straw poll actually gone on to win the white house. This thing is held right in the middle of Batshit America so it is right in Bachmann's wheelhouse.

I won't :pimp

the fact that bachmann & paul combined to capture almost 60% of the votes means nothing?

Yep it means nothing.

In 1987 Pat Robertson and Bob Dole combined for got 58.5% of the vote at the poll. George HW Bush won the nomination

In 2007 Romney and Huckabee won 50.5% of the vote yet McCain won the nomination.

In the past people like Steve Forbes and Phil Gramm have won over 20% of the vote and came nowhere close to winning the nomination.

Only once in the history of the poll has the winner gone on to win the White House. Bachmann is like Huckabee in a sense. Outside the bible belt she has no real support and With Perry now in the race and possibly Palin still to enter she has to share that far right support with other people. When Perry entered the race her chances of winning the nomination went way down. She was likely a long shot to begin with and now that Perry is in whatever those chances were are cut in half. Paul has a 0.0% chance of winning because he won't play the game and collect the large amounts of money from corporate donors so he won't be able to compete with the big dogs in the fight.

appreciated! :thumbsup

One other thing that makes me question this poll. . .well there are many. Is that Romney, who many consider to be the front runner chose to skip it, yet still got about 3% of the vote and Perry got 4.3% as a write in candidate. Bachmann grew up in this state and has roots there.

In the end it is politics and anything could happen. She could come out the gate fast and win the first handful of states and in the past that would potentially be enough to seal the nomination, but they changed the rule year so even if she wins the first few several states she has to share the delegates with the other candidates so it is likely that no candidate will be able to run away with the election early on and those with deep pockets and that appear to the more moderate crowds outside the bible belt have an advantage.

must be a typo

Romney,Obama,Perry ? I can understand how voting makes you feel good but why you would actually go waste your time on these scumbags is unreal after the last 10 years+ and the shit shape we're in ...

Correct me if I am wrong, but from the outside looking in Texas seems to be doing much better than most of the other states. Just sayin.. maybe you should get a guy in charge who has some experience getting an economy working again first, then you can worry about people believing in a book, or who is putting their penis where.
