The presidential campaign has been going strong for some time on the
Republican side. We've had debates, straw polls, withdrawals from the
race, and a mix of front runners, including some who weren't officially
candidates. But given the fact that it's the first week of November and
we're now a year away from the real election, I thought it was time for
WDweekly's first poll of the 2012 campaign.
We don't have two
sets of candidates like we did four years ago. So the focus of our poll
will be on the slate of Republican candidates for now. Sorry Democrats, you'll have to wait.
Of course we want to hear from everyone. Post a comment or email me
to tell us why you're supporting a particular candidate or why you're
not. Are there any candidates you think will be particularly good for
the industry? Republicans, are you one of those still looking for a
Romney alternative? Are you happy with your choices? Are you still
hoping someone else gets into the race? And while Obama supporters can't
vote in this week's poll, you can share your thoughts too. |
