The Republican with the biggest lead: Ron Paul, who would defeat Obama by 7 percentage points, 49 percent to 42 percent. Rick Santorum, winner of the 2012 Iowa caucuses, leads Obama 48 percent to 44 percent. Mitt Romney, edged in the caucuses by Santorum, leads Obama 46 percent to 44 percent.



Iowa knows all the candidates the best of course.

Yeah, this...there's no reason anybody should think this makes sense, even if they are krazen.

Likely voter screen. It makes plenty of sense and from a good source.

Of course, the peanut gallery simply screams 'outlier!' on some 1/3 or so of polls.
