Huckabee Gaining Strength In New 2012 Poll
Fox ^ | 12/28/10 | staff

Posted on 12/28/2010 6:54:38 PM PST by pissant

(NewsCore) - Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee has the support of more Republicans around the country than three of his potential 2012 rivals, according to a new CNN poll released Tuesday.

The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll found that 67 percent of self-identified Republicans were either “very likely” or “somewhat likely” to support his candidacy in 2012.

That compared with 59 percent for former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, 54 percent for former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and 49 percent for former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

It is the second recent poll to show momentum for Huckabee. A Public Policy Polling survey taken just before Christmas showed the former Arkansas governor overtaking Romney in the pivotal state of Florida.

The day that Palin announces, all other wannabe’s should toss in the towel and go home.

DeMit has made it clear that he doesn’t want the job. Pence lacks the “X” factor, so he can’t pull enough votes. That’s no doubt going to break the hearts of the Pence princes.

Palin-2012

Weak field is right. Huckster is so damn awful. We need a Republican “Savior” to dislodge Obama. I’m hoping!

Hell, Huck would beat Palin like a bongo drum. Conservatives can do better......and we will.

I don’t know how I can possibly pull the lever for this guy. I will have to be pretty dang drunk that is for sure. Hope this nightmare does not occur.

Me too. Anyone who thinks global warming is real needs his head examined.

State Run Media continues to carry the water for their non-feared opponents (i.e., Huck, Romney, Gingrich, etc.)...anybody who is non-threatening is their favorite.

I gotta go Pence/DeMint. Pence is a strong man and that’s what this country needs right now. As a CIC, I would follow him any where.

Exactly right - Hucks power comes from the Christians... He is the ONLY candidate to fully support Life...

If one wants to derail Huckleberry, get behind a candidate the Christians can stand.

Demint, no doubt.

Pissant, you live in a make-believe world if you really believe that crap. I live west of you, where the rain is made, and if you keep being so damn goofy, I’ll send more rain your way....maybe even a few feet of snow.

Palin is dropping like a rock. Overexposure (and saying dumb things) is never a good thing.

Not Huck. He’s just about the only GOP contender who I won’t consider.

I’d be thrilled with a DeMint/Pence ticket.

Huckabee- social gospel + fair tax. He could be Palin’s “Liason to Disenchanted (with the SBC) Southern Baptist Ministers”.

Huck supports Constitutional resolution to Life (Constitutionally protected).

Palin believes that the question of Life belongs to the states.
