A new Reuters/Ipsos national poll of the Republican race shows a familiar trend: former Mass Gov. Mitt Romney back in front with businessman Herman Cain surging and Texas Gov. Rick Perry falling off. Way off. The new survey has Romney in front with 21 percent, Cain with 19, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) with 13 and Perry back in fourth with ten.

The poll also shows the the Occupy Wall Street Movement has more support than not: 38 of those Americans surveyed said they had a favorable view of the protests, versus 24 percent who viewed them negatively. There was a partisan belt to the finding too, a trend that’s emerging in the polling around the movement. Democrats were much more likely to have a favorable opinion, with Republicans the opposite.
