Just saw it on CNN.

1. Better view of reality than they had in 1860.....

11. LOL n/t

[alcibiades_mystery]

2. Which, oddly enough, remains a minority

Run that poll in Michigan. Hell, run that poll in North Carolina.

3. South Carolina looks beautiful in photos

but sometimes I wonder about the people who live there, especially since so many think that corrupt, morally bankrupt louse could beat Obama. Especially after all the race-baiting and classist comments.

[B Calm]

4. Gingrich will bring out the Obama vote

and this is working out great. The Vast Liberal Conspiracy is working this year, LOL!

5. They live in a Fox News echo chamber.

They have no idea of reality. It's Rush and Fox News 24/7 for them.

[sadbear]

6. 48% of ALL SC voters?

Or 48% of republican SC voters?

[Eid Ma Clack Shaw]

8. It is hilarious either way.

48% of voters in a solid red state believe that the man a very solid plurality of voters believe that he can beat a President they consider the most left-wing man to have either left the womb.

12. If 48 percent of SC's Republican Voters Think Newt Could Beat Obama, I Say

If 48 percent of South Carolina's Republican voters think that Newt could beat President Obama, I say let them enjoy their illusions. In fact, I'd say let them enjoy their illusions all the way to Election Night in November.

7. And maybe he can in SC. It is just one state.

[la la]

9. that's how much...

they HATE Obama...their hate has fogged their brains...

[Generic Brad]

10. Sounds like a state of delusion rather than the state of South Carolina

It would be interesting to learn the demographics of the people polled. I could see all Republican voters in SC saying this, but not a representative sample of the entire state.
