Most people that I know around here who are active in GOP politics and have expressed an opinion are supporting him. <br /><br />At the caucus in 2008, there was a big group of openly McCain supporters who seemed to be made up of party insiders. Another big group was called something like "Life and Family Values," and they ended up going with the McCain supporters. The supporters for Mr. Romney were a smaller number, and the Ron Paul supporters were a little less than we were. <br /><br />Very few people were openly unfriendly, but the "Life and Family Values" people seemed to be more of the anti-Mormon crowd. The Ron Paul supporters seemed to be friendliest to the Mitt Romney supporters. <br /><br />I'm just guessing, but I suspect that in 2012 the "Life and Family Values" people will go with Mike Huckabee and will continue to have a very strong showing. The party insiders will split among several candidates, and Mr. Romney may pick up many of them. If Ron Paul runs, his people will stay with him. If he doesn't, many of his people won't bother with the caucus. We may get the rest. If Sarah Palin runs, she'll attract caucus voters who didn't vote last time and may split a little of each group. The caucus selects delegates to a state convention where delegates to the national convention are selected. The state convention becomes something of a "winner take all" event, but if things change in the month or so between the caucus and the convention, people can change their minds. <br /><br /><br />BillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-11858449045137063362010-12-12T15:11:45.062-05:002010-12-12T15:11:45.062-05:00Another great analysis IG.

Whereas with Palin it is the reverse.
