The 2009 CPAC Straw Poll Results:
20% Mitt Romney
14% Bobby Jindal
13% Ron Paul
13% Sarah Palin
10% Newt Gingrich
7% Mike Huckabee
23% Other/Undecided/ etc.
20% at this stage means nothing. In the other polls cited, HUCKABEE is even with him. Huckabee, who has spent a sliver of the money. In 2008, Romney had more support than he deserved from the likes of Coulter, Hannity (when not liking Rudy's shoes) and Limbaugh.
I see Romney's support as similar to Ron Paul's. His people are his people. He can't really recruit more people too easily, because they don't want to buy what he's selling.
At this point, he might be helpful as Senator from Massachusetts. I would even see him as excellent cabinet material (just keep him away from HHS and AG). But not president. Yeah, I'd vote for him against Obama, but that's about it.
