Poll Watch: Mike Huckabee Leads Sarah Palin in 2012 Alabama Presidential Race
Posted by Flap in Mike Huckabee, Mitt RomneyYep, the race for 2012 has already started.
In a reminder of his strength with social conservatives, Mike Huckabee leads his nearest GOP competitor by 10 percentage points, according to a new poll of Alabama Republicans.Thirty-three percent of Alabama Republicans polled support the former Arkansas governor for the 2012 presidential nomination, while 23 percent said they would back Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 vice presidential nominee. The next closest Republican to Huckabee and Palin is former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who takes 12 percent of the vote.
If Sarah Palin decides to defer a race in 2012, Romney and Huckabee will go toe to toe again. Remember how brutal Iowa was in 2008?
But, should Palin not run, there will be others.
