Over 60 million 'SS' recepients Don't want Perry near the Oval office!
Florida and America feel the same.

To be fair to her, she did not actively participate in this straw poll.

The majority of folks who do not support Mr. Obama do so because his policies have thus far failed to produce any meaningful positive change.

Not because of any racial prejudice.
you'll find that 99.8% of that poster's output consists of the following formula:

1. crazed, inane babble with generous [read: constant] allegations of 'racism' and inevitable smarmy paeans to lord obama.

2. an insipid smilie.

3. run away.

So many people i know or are acquainted with, really like Cain, his mannerisim, his direct attitude, nor hold bars, and no kissing butt, from what we can see. Like his approach also. Does not seem to be a bully type either. Nor does he seem to be the type, that if you disagree with him, he will make you pay, just does not seem that way at all.

Many of my democratic friends, really like Cain, but also coming around to Romney. More so then Perry. Yes i have more democrat friends then Republicians, but this time around, honestly, they feel anyone would be better then Obama, and no they are not falling for any cliche of Hope n' Change, they said once was too many, and good for them.

I see a pattern.

Bachmann won Iowa's Straw Poll.
Paul won California's Straw Poll.
Cain won Florida's Straw Poll.

It's marketing. Take the first letters of each of their last names and you get a shameless subliminal message: Anyone can see that B, P, C... will soon be BPCCN! The next 'C' is Christie. I don't know who the 'N' signifies yet, but we'll find out soon enough!
Here's the message they're selling us: Buy Purina Cat Chow Now!

You heard it here first.
