Latest 2012 Presidential Polls – 01 Dec 11 Edition

A new Rasmussen Reports poll of likely voters conducted 30 Nov 11 has been released concerning the Republican Tea Party (GOTP) nominating circus; the current poll results are:

Newton Leroy Gingrich 38; Mittens Romney 17; Herman “Pizza Man” Cain 8; Ronny Paul 8; Reverend Rick Perry 4; Michele “Krazy” Bachmann 4; Ricky “The Ric” Santorum 4 and  Jon “I can’t believe it’s not butter” Huntsman 3

The GOTP version of the Island of Misfit Candidates continues with Newton gaining a commanding lead over Bridesmaid Mittens and the Pizza Man beginning to burn up on re-entry; Reverend Ricky, Paul and Krazy all continue to drop like the stone in the well, while Huntsman maintains his bottom dwelling mud sucker status as Santorum continues to just sit and basically not go up or down. No one has scored this significant of a lead over the pack – ever, and considering it’s the uber-conservative Rasmussen polling organization this should be a huge concern for Mittens who went running to Texas today to plead for help from Bush 41.

In Iowa, a new Insider Advantage poll of likely voters conducted 28 Nov 11: Gingrich 28; Paul 13; Romney 12; Cain 10; Bachmann 10; Perry 7; Santorum 3 and Huntsman ?

In New Hampshire, Rasmussen Reports conducted a poll of likely voters conducted 28 Nov 11: Mittens 34; Gingrich 24; Paul 14; Huntsman 11; Cain 5; Perry 2; Bachmann 2 and Santorum 1

In South Carolina, the new Insider Advantage poll of likely voters conducted 28 Nov 11: Gingrich 38; Romney 15; Cain 13; Paul 7; Perry 4; Bachmann 3; Santorum 2 and Huntsman ?

In Florida, the new Insider Advantage poll of likely voters conducted on 29 Nov 11: Gingrich 41; Romney 17; Cain 13; Perry 7; Paul 4; Bachmann 3; Santorum 1 and Huntsman ? …

In Nevada, the PPP (D) poll of registered voters conducted from 20 – 23 Oct 11: Romney 29; Cain 28; Gingrich 15; Paul 7; Perry 6; Bachmann 3; Huntsman and Santorum 2 …

In the five states with the lead off primaries – or caucuses – Gingrich leads big over Romney 3 – 2

Concerning how the GOTP “candidates stack up against the President; according to a Rasmussen Reports poll of likely voters conducted 21 – 22 Nov 11, if the general election were held today:

President Obama 44/Romney 38

According to a Rasmussen Reports poll of likely voters conducted 19 – 20 Nov 11, if the general election were held today:

President Obama 46/Gingrich 40

So, if the GOTP clown car had finally stopped spinning, and the general election was held today, Newton Leroy Gingrich would be the nominee, and he would’ve lost to President Obama.
