A new CNN poll finds that there is no immediate frontrunner for the Republican nomination in 2012. Here are the numbers, with a ±4.5% margin of error among GOP respondents:
Mike Huckabee 22%
Sarah Palin 21%
Mitt Romney 21%
Newt Gingrich 13%
Jeb Bush 6%
Someone else (volunteered answer) 10%
At this point there really doesn’t need to be an immediate Republican frontrunner. It’s even quite plausible that the lack of a current leading candidate could have its own mix of pluses and minuses.
