TIR Iowa Poll: Michele Bachmann on top of GOP in Iowa

Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann has surpassed former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney in a recent Iowa poll that was conducted by TheIowaRepublican.com. With Bachmann now leading in Iowa, Romney has fallen to second place, but he is still well ahead of third place finisher Tim Pawlenty, who has overtaken Herman Cain my a miniscule margin.
Voter/Consumer Research conducted the poll by telephone interviews between the dates of June 26th and June 30th. It has a sample size of 500 likely caucus goers, and has a margin of error of ± 4.4 percent. Dr. Jan van Lohuizen, an expert in the field of public policy and public opinion research, founded Voter/Consumer Research. Dr. van Lohuizen was President George W. Bush’s primary pollster and has provided his services to a number of political candidates, corporations, and various think tanks. This is the third Iowa poll Dr. van Lohuizen has conducted for TheIowaRepublican.com.

If Romney can keep it close without doing much....let Bachmann and Pawlenty blow all their money, he could do an ad blitz on the last minute and probably take the state any way.

I like Bachmann, but do not see her as the accomplished candidate that can beat Obama. She is far behind Mitt Romney in polls everywhere but in Iowa. It is in the nature of the caucus there, that the polling results are very volatile right up until the final vote for the state's delegates. Perhaps The Iowa Republican should wait for Bachmann to win as many polls in Iowa as Romney has, before calling her the new front-runner.

Pawlenty is finally starting to go after Bachmann, which if he can be effective, will lessen her poll numbers in favor of Mitt.

When people get a look at some of her past statements and views (like being submissive), her candidacy will be SO TOASTED!
