A new poll released Wednesday by Public Policy Polling shows Mitt Romney ahead in Iowa . This is not surprising. What is surprising is the two-way tie between Sarah Palin and Herman Cain for second place. It is not as surprising after remembering Herman Cain told Joshua Green of The Atlantic, “From the standpoint of our conservative beliefs and values, Sarah Palin and I are probably identical.”
How is Toby Wene’s favorite former governor Jon Huntsman doing in Iowa? Only 1 of the 481 voters polled in Iowa by Public Policy Polling said that Jon Huntsman was their choice for president. It is still early, but ouch. Huntsman is largely unknown in Iowa. When asked whether they had a favorable or unfavorable view of Jon Huntsman, 7% said they had a favorable opinion of him, 23% said they had an unfavorable opinion of him, but 70% responded they were not sure.
