So, let me get this straight - this poll shows Romney up by 9, while the LA Times poll shows Huckabee up by 13?
Pretty large margin of error. Like they say, the only poll that matters is the one they take on election day.
LA Times poll (Dec 20-23 & 26) was done 80% pre-Christmas, and 100% pre-Bhutto (which means pre-Huckabee foul-ups on Pakistan). It is also before the most recent Romney ad blitz.
