Rick Perry continues to hold a double digit lead over Mitt Romney nationally in the Republican Presidential race.
He's at 31% to 18% for Romney, 11% for Ron Paul, 10% for Newt Gingrich, 9% for Michele Bachmann, 8% for Herman Cain, and 2% each for Jon Huntsman and Rick Santorum.
Perry is building much of his lead off the support of Republican primary voters who believe things that are well out of the mainstream of overall American public opinion.
For instance:
-39% of Republicans agree with Perry that Social Security is a Ponzi Scheme....he’s really running up the score with those who do, leading 40-15.
Are those folks going to vote for him in the general election if he ends up as the nominee?

Perry is building much of his lead off the support of Republican primary voters who believe things that are well out of the mainstream of overall American public opinion.
For instance:
- -Perry leads Romney 27-23 among GOP voters opposed to ending Medicare.
-39% of Republicans agree with Perry that Social Security is a Ponzi Scheme....he’s really running up the score with those who do, leading 40-15.
- -Romney leads Perry 23-18 among GOP voters who believe in global warming…but that’s only 27% of them.
Are those folks going to vote for him in the general election if he ends up as the nominee?
- -With Republicans who don’t think Barack Obama is a Socialist, Romney leads Perry 26-13…but with the 71% who do think Obama is a Socialist, Perry is ahead 35-16.
