PPP also notes that the 5 most liked GOPers in Florida are not yet running:

* Bush
* Palin
* Giuliani
* Ryan
* Christie

These 5 persons have the best net favorability in the Florida poll.

[Mr. Morden]

58-22 Michele Bachmann

80% have an opinion of her?  I guess she's broken into the top tier in terms of name recognition.

Perry still only has 50% of primary voters with an opinion on him......despite a great deal of buzz in the media.  I guess voters are waiting on him to actually start campaigning.

58-22 Michele Bachmann

80% have an opinion of her?  I guess she's broken into the top tier in terms of name recognition.

I guess many Florida Republicans (who are old and have time) watched the debate or read about it in the news.

Then they switched on their computers and went to her homepage or to Wikipedia and got an opinion. It´s very easy these days to get a quick opinion about a candidate.

If the Republican candidates for President were Michele Bachmann, Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Rudy Giuliani, Sarah Palin, Tim Pawlenty, Mitt Romney, and Paul Ryan, who would you vote for?

Wait...what?

Actually, I guess this is neat. Can we expect PPP to poll a new bizarro-universe primary in all future releases?

[King]

Anybody else notice of all the lesser known candidates, Pawlenty consistently has the highest unfavorables in ever poll?

[Senator Snowstalker]

I for one welcome Candidate Romney.
