Though I don't think we have had a McClatchy-Marist in a while.

More often than not yes, but there have also been a few other cases in which Romney did better: list of national polls (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationwide_opinion_polling_for_the_United_States_presidential_election,_2012#Two-way_race) The last PPP national poll, for example, had Obama leading Huckabee by 3, but leading Romney by only 1.

Unfortunately, I don't think he's going to get her in the end. Title: Re: McClatchy-Marist: Obama trails Romney by 2; leads Huckabee by 4, Palin by 12 Post by: ○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└ on December 11, 2010, 12:17:01 AM Good to see Obama's approvals falling well in advance of the 2012 primaries.

If only this was December 2011. Title: Re: McClatchy-Marist: Obama trails Romney by 2; leads Huckabee by 4, Palin by 12 Post by: Sbane on December 11, 2010, 03:15:55 AM Romney is a better candidate on paper. I have a feeling people are not going to like him much once they see him on TV constantly. He's just so fake.
Huckabee is a much more dangerous candidate, imo. |
