Here’s the latest information on this week’s polling on the 2012 Presidential election.
First let’s look at who would be the Republican/Tea Party (GOTP) nominee if it all ended today:
Romney 19; Palin 15; Giuliani 12; Paul 8; Cain 8; Gingrich 7; Pawlenty 5; Bachmann 5; Perry 4; Santorum 2; Huntsman 2
Very encouraging for the GOTP; you have Flopsy Mopsy in the lead followed by the Ice Queen (who has not announced she’s running) and the former womanizing mayor of New York pulling a close third, and no one else is even close.
And how do they stack up against President Obama? Well, if the election was held today:
President Obama 48/Romney 41
President Obama 50/Pawlenty 32
President Obama 56/Palin 35
President Obama 53/Cain 34
President Obama 53/Bachmann 33
President Obama 53/Gingrich 34
President Obama 54/Paul 36
President Obama 52/Huntsman 34
So, only Flopsy Mopsy comes within single digits and just barely, down by seven points. Of course polling this early doesn’t really mean a whole lot, but for political junkies this is good stuff. Right now, all things considered, the President is sitting pretty.
