If the choice for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012 comes down to a choice between Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney, Huckabee has a slight edge.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Republican voters finds that 44% prefer Huckabee, 39% favor Romney, and 17% are not sure.
Data released yesterday showed that Huckabee and Romney lead all hopefuls in an early look at the 2012 race. Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich also attract double-digit support.
Both Huckabee and Romney are viewed favorably by 78% of Republican voters. However, intensity leans a bit in Huckabee’s favor. Forty-six percent (46%) have a Very Favorable opinion of the former Arkansas governor and current Fox News host. Just 34% have such positive feelings about Romney.

RINO-palooza!!
Huckabee and Romney are certain death for 2012.
Besides, it’s way too early for this kind of poll.
The churches are rising up for Huckabee. America is in need of Christian Leadership. Only Huckabee is qualified to spread God’s wisdom to the American people.
They can pat each other on the back all they want, but I’m looking for the conservative candidates...obviously they aren’t it.
Sarah is inevitable.
Outside the Dixiefied South???? Hmmmmmmm....but will it play in Peoria???
You better believe it.... neither will be electable.
People need to wake up from their addiction to hopium and elect Sarah.

Did they have a choice of “None of the above”?
What happened in the primaries?
Polling 3 years before the election is pure idiotic hype.
Dear Lord, please raise up someone else. Thank you, amen.
Actually we should encourage this thinking. Let the two RINOS destory each other for us.
I don’t know who I support yet for 2012, but please Lord let us have a real choice...
I don’t like Huckabee. But I’m voting for anyone with an R rather than endure Barry for another 4 years.
“America is in need of Christian Leadership. Only Huckabee is qualified to spread God’s wisdom to the American people.”
No, America needs leadership that will acknowledge the governing principles of the Constitution. Most Christians, myself included, feel that way.
I can’t stand Mitt. He is Bill Clinton without the sex problem. He’ll do and say anything to get elected. To win in Mass he ran as a pro-gay, anti-gun, and pro-”choice” candidate. He also gave us Romney-care.
To try to win the White House he flipped on a lot of core issues. I don’t trust the man and think that he is a snake.
If the choice for the Republican Presidential nomination comes down to a choice between those two clowns, I'll start working for the undercard and voting for, or writing in, the Conservative Party.
Do which Obama front group do you work for? Organizing for America? Acorn? Act Up? Moveon.org? the DNC?
