Here you go, Rick: http://www.handelsblatt.com/politik/deutschland/was-die-exklusive-handelsblatt-umfrage-zeigt;2443558;2

Probably the most important thing is, they believe we'd get twice as  
many votes as the right-wing extremists from the DVU (German People's  
Union), NPD (National Democratic Party) and REP (Republican Party).  
That would really be great.

On a side note, if we keep growing at our current rate (about 50 new  
members per day), we will be larger than the the biggest of the small  
parties in Germany, the NPD with 7000, in less than a month. That'll  
make us the sixth largest party after the parties in the Bundestag,  
the CDU/CSU (conservatives), SPD (social democrats), Greens, and Left  
party.
