Cain Tops Hot Air Poll With Almost 51 Percent of the Vote

Considering that Hot Air’s Allahpundit appears to derive great pleasure in deriding Herman Cain almost every other day (and, I’m not the only one who has noticed this), I would say that his readers aren’t listening:

Hot Air Presidential Survey Results
November 2, 2011 by Patrick Ishmael

Two things worth noting, and then I’ll let the results speak for themselves. First, the top five candidates from the last survey are again the top five candidates in this survey, and in exactly the same order. Herman Cain again takes the top spot, followed by Rick Perry, Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney and Ron Paul. Second, Cain is the first candidate to cross the 50% mark in a survey, at 50.97%. This includes surveys where Sarah Palin was included. In fact, the only candidate to come close to 50% was Perry, who hit 48.29% in September.

Quinnipiac University Poll: Cain Tied With Romney in Virginia

Despite the Lame Stream Media’s efforts, Cain keeps slaying the competition:

October 11, 2011 – Cain, Romney Top Pack In Virginia GOP Race, Quinnipiac University Poll Finds; Both Tie Obama As Perry Fades

Quinnipiac.edu

Businessman Herman Cain ties former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney as the leading choice of Virginia Republicans for their presidential nomination with 21 percent each, followed by Texas Gov. Rick Perry with 11 percent, less than half his showing a month ago when he had led the pack, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

President Barack Obama’s job approval and re-election numbers remain seriously under water in Virginia, although he is in a statistical tie with Romney and Cain, while holding a narrow lead over Perry, in general election matchups, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe- ack) University poll finds.

[…]

“Herman Cain is moving up the ladder at breakneck speed. His 21 percent share of the GOP primary vote is more than three times the 6 percent he received when Quinnipiac University surveyed Virginians September 15,” said Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling institute.

Zogby Poll: Cain Slays ‘Unable’ 46% – 44%

The Lame Stream Media tried to ignore him into oblivion, but that just made him stronger:

IBOPE Zogby Poll: Cain Expands Lead Over GOP Field & Leads Obama, 46%-44%

Obama Approval Steady at 41%

UTICA, NY–Herman Cain has opened up a 20 percentage point lead among likely Republican primary voters in the race for the Presidential nomination, and also holds a narrow lead among all likely voters over President Barack Obama.

Cains share of the GOP primary has jumped 10 percentage points since Sept. 26 and is now at 38%. Mitt Romney is second with 18%, followed by both Rick Perry and Ron Paul, at 12% each.

The Oct. 3-5 IBOPE Zogby interactive poll also matches Cain, Romney and Perry against Obama. Cain led Obama, 46%-44%, while Obama is one-point ahead of Romney, 41%-40%, and leads Perry, 45%-40%.

As for President Barack Obama, both his job approval (41%) and the percentage who believe he deserves re-election (38%) are virtually unchanged from recent polls.

Obama’s Approval Index at -24 for Third Straight Day in a Row

It’s certainly not looking good for Obama’s re-election bid as this trend shows that it’s definitely not a hiccup in the data collection:

Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
Thursday, October 06, 2011 – Rasmussen Reports

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 19% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Forty-three percent (43%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -24 (see trends).

[…]

By the way, that 19 percent “Strongly Approve” rating is tied with the lowest ratings ever for Obama.  Furthermore, it has been that way for three days straight.  Apparently, even the Dumbtards are starting to see the light.

Herman Cain Leads Pack by Double Digits in New Zogby Poll

Nice!  Go get ’em, Mr. Cain!

Now, the question on my mind is, will the Lame Stream Media continue ignoring Mr. Cain?:
IBOPE Zogby Poll: Perry Plummets to 18%; Trails Cain For Lead Among GOP Primary Voters

UTICA, NY–Rick Perry has tumbled by more than 20 percentage points over the past month among Republican presidential primary voters and is now second to Herman Cain, who leads the field with 28%.

Mitt Romney received little benefit from Perrys fall, garnering 17% of the vote for third place.

As for President Barack Obama, both his job approval (42%) and the percentage who believe he deserves re-election (37%) are little changed from recent polls, but he does seem to be winning back some supporters who have been disappointed in his job performance.

These results are from an IBOPE Zogby interactive poll conducted Sept. 23-26 of all likely voters and of likely Republican primary voters.

This poll was conducted after Perry’s most recent subpar debate performance last Thursday, but the survey was still in the field when Cain won a Florida straw poll on Sunday. Cain was the top choice of only 8% a month ago.

Michele Bachmann continues her drop in our polling, falling from a first-place 34% on June 30 to just 4% now. While some other announced GOP candidates have had large fluctuations in their standing with party voters, since June 21 Romney has remained steadily between 12% and 17%.

Obama Losing the College Graduate Crowd

Hm.  Very interesting.  I wonder if this trend will hold up throughout the 2012 campaign season:

Recent college grads sour on Obama, surveys say
The Daily Caller – Via Yahoo News

A very large proportion of recent university graduates have soured on President Barack Obama, and many will vote GOP or stay at home in the 2012 election, according to two new surveys of younger voters.

“These rock-solid Obama constituents are free-agents,” said Kellyanne Conway, president of The Polling Company, based in Washington, D.C. She recently completed a large survey of college grads, and “they’re shopping around, considering their options, [and] a fair number will say at home and sit it out,” she said.

The scope of this disengagement from Obama is suggested by an informal survey of 500 post-grads by Joe Maddalone, founder of Maddalone Global Strategies. Of his sample, 93 percent are aged between 22 and 28, 67 percent are male and 83 percent voted for Obama in 2008. But only 27 percent are committed to voting for Obama again, and 80 percent said they would consider voting for a Republican, said New York-based Maddalone.

That’s a drop of almost 60 points in support for Obama among this influential class of younger post-grad voters, who Maddalone recruited at conferences held at New York University and Thomson-Reuters’ New York headquarters.

[…]

One thousand college students ranked education, economic and health care as their top three issues, but credited top marks to the GOP for its stance on military issues and a “business-friendly environment.” The students ranked the GOP low on environmental, immigration and gay-rights issues, but they also ranked those last two issues as a low priority.

After a Protracted Holiday Season, Obama’s Approval Index Drops Back Into the Negative Twenties

Yeah, he’s probably not playing near enough golf.   After all, it’s been a whole three days since he last played.  Better get back out on the green and shake this off, Barry.  ‘Cause the more time you spend playing golf, the less time you have to destroy my America:

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 20% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -22. That is the president’s lowest rating since September (see trends).

Gallup Poll Finds Libtards and DemonRats to be a Pace of Unpatriotic Asses

We needed a poll to tell us what we already knew?  Oh well, at least it’s official, now:

FYI:  A “pace” is a herd of asses.

Gallup poll “discovers” what we already knew, liberals aren’t patriotic
July 7, 2010 – The Collins Report – By Kevin “Coach” Collins

Anyone who has attended a TEA Party event has been in the presence of real patriots. Looking around you see the face of America. You see people who love our country and will fight to restore and defend the freedoms they understand do not come cheaply. What you don’t see are whinny “progressives” who want to tear down America and remake her into a socialist gulag.

With rare exceptions you don’t see “academics” or Hollywood types. The people standing shoulder to shoulder with you are men and women you might meet at a Home Depot on Saturday afternoon or sit next to in church on Sunday.

A new Gallup poll shows us all of these observations are right on target.

When the pollsters asked the question: “How patriotic are you? Would you say extremely patriotic, very patriotic, somewhat patriotic, or not especially patriotic?” The answers certified everything we thought about the Leftist dregs we are constantly fighting to keep our freedom and liberties.

The survey asked a random sample of over 1000 adults how they would characterize themselves on their own patriotism.

While the overall 76% who called themselves “extremely or very” patriotic was less than what we would want, just 6% called themselves “not especially patriotic.”

Gallup found patriotism levels are highest among Republicans and conservatives and noted a 24% increase in patriotic fervor since 1999.

Liberals were the smallest group represented among those in the “Extremely” patriotic category.

We’re right about Democrats as well

Members of both major Parties and various sub groups described their level of patriotism as follows.

Republicans self identifying as “extremely” patriotic were 52%; while just 20% of Democrats could say the same.

Obama’s Approval Index Hits -20 Again

Gee, maybe he should have kept his mouth shut about amnesty for illegals and just concentrated on eliminating the red tape hindering cleanup efforts in the Gulf.

Rasmussen Reports:

It’s Historic! Obama’s Disapproval Rating at 58 Percent!

Since Rasmussen runs on a 3-day rolling average, I would have to say that Obama did not get the boost he was hoping for with his “Oil-slide chat” the other day.

Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
Friday, June 18, 2010 – Rasmussen Reports

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 25% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Forty-six percent (46%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -21 (see trends).

These results are based upon nightly telephone interviews and reported on a three-day rolling average basis. As a result, more than two-thirds of the interviews for today’s update were conducted after the president’s speech to the nation. Tomorrow’s update will be the first based entirely upon interviews conducted after the speech.

The Presidential Approval Index is calculated by subtracting the number who Strongly Disapprove from the number who Strongly Approve. It is updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update). Updates are also available on Twitter and Facebook.

Overall, 41% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president’s performance. That’s the lowest level of approval yet recorded for this president. Fifty-eight percent (58%) now disapprove.
