CNN Poll: Perry Extends Lead Over Romney To 13 Points, 27%–14%…
Mittens flip-flops on another issue to make himself more appealing in 3 . . . 2 . . . 1.
Washington (CNN) — A new national survey is further proof that Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s entrance earlier this month into the race for the White House has dramatically altered the battle for the Republican presidential nomination.
According to a CNN/ORC International Poll of Republicans and independent voters who lean towards the GOP, Perry now sits atop the list of Republican presidential candidates, with strong support from most demographic groups.
The survey, released Monday, indicates that 27 percent of Republicans nationwide support Perry for their party’s nomination, with former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who’s making his second bid for the White House, at 14 percent. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin follows at ten percent, with Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani at nine percent, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, who’s making his third bid for the presidency, at six percent. Every one else listed on the questionnaire registered in the low single digits.
The survey follows a Gallup poll out last week which also placed Perry at the top of the GOP field. Other polling released in the past week also confirms the findings of the CNN and Gallup surveys.
“Perry’s support is higher among Republican men, at 32 percent, than Republican women, at 23 percent, but he has more support among either group than any other candidate,” says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.
According to the survey, Perry supporters tend to be older and have higher incomes, but the longtime Texas governor also tops the list, albeit by smaller margins, among lower-income Republicans and those under 50 years old.

-It’s never too early to campaign-
Even Rush says Perry is conservative.
Keep messing around and we will have another Huckabee, or Mc Cain. Get behind Perry and fight for this country.
Perry will win. He’s the “ruling Elite’s” pick.
Check it out for yourself. (starting with the Bilderberger group.)
Plus, he’s an AlBore Democrat. How long will he be interested in being a Republican? (Ask Joe Lieberman about the advantages of flopping from one party to the next and getting/keeping followers)
@e. scott says: Perry will win. He’s the “ruling Elite’s” pick.

yeah that is why the Bush Mafia – Poppy, W. , Karen Hughes, Karl Rove, Dick Cheney, James Baker – all supported Kay Bailey Hutchison in 2010. Give it up already!
Bilderberger?!? You’re right…and 9/11 was an inside job, we didn’t land on the moon, and the government is secretly keeping ETs in the West Virginia bunkers.
Good grief it was in 1982 that he was a democrat. He quit the dems when they began to move left.
Look at all he has done in Texas!! He has been fighting the EPA on almost every turn, and wants oil drilling opened everywhere. He is anti Globull warming, He is for lower taxes, and incentives for companies to produce in the Untied States, not China and Mexico.
Very few human beings haven’t made mistakes, or done things an individual might not agree with, but over all Perry is our man!!!
Trolls,,,it isn’t going to work.!!
Hey, I’m a Republican! Vote for me!

Maybe I’m the only one here who doesn’t like Perry.
I’d much rather see Romney become the president.
According to Paul Walter, on 8.26.11:
The Masters of the Game plan well ahead, which is why plans to destroy America have been successful even though its taken close to a century. One thing Americans need to understand is the ruling elite are the ultimate power brokers who make sure bushels of money go to presidential candidates of both parties to hedge their bets. All the ruling elite need is a political animal willing to sell out his or her soul and America with “people appeal” regardless of whether or not that individual has an R or D behind his name.
Enter Governor Rick Perry of Texas.
Perry ran for a third term and won. Many in the state of Texas believe his only purpose in seeking a third term was for the 2012 presidential race. Sell another illusion to the masses. Here’s a man so popular with the people of Texas, they elected him to an unprecedented third term! Repackage his failures into success and suddenly the GOP has a front runner. Like Bill Clinton, Rick Perry carries a lot of negative baggage. However, both have one thing in common: The Bilderberg Group. Back in 1991, Clinton (like Carter) was unknown on the national scene. A governor of a poor state with only corruption and a long list of extramarital sexual escapades to his resume, Clinton’s audition to the global ruling elite was in the Black Forest over in Germany in 1991. He was elected the following year. By the way, Carter was not a member of the Bilderberg Group, but was a member of the Trilateral Commission; you might say a brother of the Bilderberg Group.
In 2007, Rick Perry, made his appearance at the Bilderberg meeting in Istanbul, Turkey. Rick Perry (like Rep. Michelle Bachmann who worked to get Jimmy Carter elected) was a Democrat before switching to the Republican Party. His support for Al Gore and the hoax called global warming has turned off many Republicans, but might sway a few on the left keeping in mind the idiom that a leopard doesn’t change his spots. Perry’s support of Al Gore was because he believed in what Gore was selling and the product is still very much desired by the Bilderberg Group.
Republicans are desperate to get Obama out of office and put one of their own in the White House. The Democrats have a world of problems with Obama, but, would Rick Perry actually be what the power brokers behind the scenes really want? The goal of the global ruling elite is one world government with regions. No more nation states or sovereign countries. Free trade has destroyed America’s critical job sectors and reduced the standard of living in this country in a way shocking Americans to the core.
Rick Perry has been selling himself as anti-big government and poked fun of in the media as a “Remember the Alamo” type Jim Bowie. However, his actions speak louder than media propaganda and his carefully crafted stump speeches:
Rick Perry tied to Agenda 21, globalist policies
“Rick Perry may be good at invoking states rights and property rights, while disavowing ‘foreign creditors,’ but his actions as Texas’ longest serving governor tell a different story. Public private partnerships (or P3s) are part and parcel of the United Nations’ Agenda 21. Two of the purposes of Agenda 21 are to abolish private property and restrict mobility and P3s act as the vehicle to do it. Perry made P3s a centerpiece of his transportation policy since he stepped in as governor.
“It started with the Trans Texas Corridor, known at the federal level as high priority corridors, corridors of the future, or the NAFTA superhighways. Just in Texas, it was to be a 4,000 mile multi-modal network of toll roads, rail lines, power transmission lines, pipelines, telecommunications lines and more. It was going to be financed, operated, and controlled by a foreign company granted massive swaths of land 1,200 feet (4 football fields) wide taken forcibly through eminent domain….
“While Perry is staking his campaign on Texas being the top net jobs creator, Perry’s version of Texas being “Open for Business” isn’t about low taxes and less regulation as much as it is about doing business with foreign companies, including selling off Texas’ sovereign land and public assets to foreign creditors, an issue which Perry’s first television ad uses to take aim at President Obama.”
Just the candidate the global ruling elite are looking for and someone who, over time, can be sold to the large block of independent voters despite his “flaws” because, after all “no one candidate can be perfect”.

Gov. Perry rejected Federal Education funds, while, knowing the curriculum hadn’t been over hauled since a blue moon, why? by allowing illegal free in state tuition, might work north of Austin, moreover, along international Tx/Mx boundaries today a US born child that speaks better English than an illegal gets no study chair in kindergarten, because they are reserved for English as a second language children. why?
and to me it reaks of “reversed racism”
Slick Rick isn’t what we need right now. He has been saying all the right things recently but his record over the years paints a different story.
And my God, I’m sure the country isn’t going to quickly embrace another George Bush clone from TX. Next to Obama, GW was one of the WORST fiscal presidents we’ve ever had.
e.scott-looks like you have done your homework and Dana. There is still more. He is another chosen one by “The Good Ole Boys” Something tells me we may have a dark horse step in,its still early. Pamella Gellars website has all the articles about Rick Perry putting the Dawah curriculum into Texas schools. Yes they have tried to scrub all of them,but they didn’t get hers.
HAHAHA, funny how some of you believe your votes count. Perry will be chosen, even though he is a NWO piece of shit.
Ron Paul is your only conservative choice, but sadly he will lose.
