Romney Leads Obama

Hi All,
In a new national poll released yesterday, Politicons Polling interviewed 573 likely voters between Jan 25 and Jan 27; ie, after the SOTU address. These folks were mostly moderate to conservative as the polling indicated disapproval for President Obama. The MOE was +/- 3.4 %
The results were :

Romney 45 Obama 44 ( + 1 % )
Obama 45 Christie 39 ( - 6% )
Obama 49 Gingrich 43 ( - 6 % )
Obama 48 Huckabee 42 ( - 6 % )
Obama 52 Palin 39 ( - 13 % )
Obama 48 Bachman 39 ( - 9 % )

Also, when asked who they would vote for in the GOP primaries

Romney 18 %
Palin 18 %
Christie 16 %
Huckabee 15 %
Gingrich 10 %
Bachman 3 %
Pawlenty 2 %
Daniels 2 %

This just confirms what most of us REALISTS already know, Romney is the best candidate in head-to-head matchups against Obama!

CraigS,
Thank you for posting the information. I want to see all the polling results regardless of who is in front. I don't have a problem with supporters of the different candidates posting the news showing their guy or gal leading.

Does anyone know how to contact Real Clear Politics to see if they're going to include that poll in their averaging? Has anyone else found a link to the RCP site that shows how each of the GOP poll against Obama or do we have to continue clicking on the individual candidates like these links: Romney
Huckabee
Palin

They haven't even started averaging for Gingrich yet.

Again, this poll points out that Romney is Republicans best bet against Obama.

Romney seems to be besting the other Republicans against Obama in most polls

Romney is well on his way to the nomination and the Presidency.

Sarah is moving up. Huckabee is moving down. I like it.
