This poll has a big sample 600, but of course we don’t know their definition of “likely caucus goer” vs other polls. Regardless, 600 is a lot.

THIS is attention getting. From the same sample of GOP voters:

4. Do you favor a withdrawal of all United States military from Iraq within the next six months? (Republicans Only)
Yes 46%
No 41%
Undecided 13%

FYI, the previous poll from this organization was Dec 26-27 and showed this:

Mike Huckabee 29%
Mitt Romney 27%
Fred Thompson 15%
John McCain 14%
Rudy Giuliani 4%
Ron Paul 4%
Duncan Hunter 1%
Undecided 6%

Clearly the momentum in this definition of “likely caucus goer” is Romney’s and McCain’s (who seems to have grabbed numbers from Thompson).

Note the small undecided in this poll. That contrasts with CNN’s just released. It usually indicates this pollster “pushed” the undecided with a “well who are you leaning towards?”.

Hillary in 3rd!

She could still recover though. In ‘88 it was Dole, Robertson, Bush.

Leave Iraq in 6 months with 46% yes and 13% not sure???? And these are Republicans? From now on when folks ask if I’m dem or republican I will say neither - I’m a Conservative.

This has been a problem for awhile. When President Bush first got elected a liberal office-mate said she didn’t like him. I said I didn’t love him either - he wasn’t conservative enough for me.

So in other words the correct headline should read...

Romney and McCain surge, Fred loses 2%, Huck loses 1%
