Quinnipiac
Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney can add another Republican Primary in his column today, but there is little reason to celebrate Quinnipiac University's recent survey of 523 Pennsylvania Republicans, because his lead barely exists:
Romney - 21%; Santorum - 16%; Palin - 11%; Cain - 8%; Paul - 6%; Gingrich - 5%; Bachmann - 5%; Pawlenty - 4%; Huntsman - 1%; Johnson - 0%.
Senator Santorum's favorite son campaign has captured him a sizable portion of the state's crucial vote, which has resulted in the former two-term U.S. Senator competing relatively well against our party's weak front runner - Mitt Romney.
The early front runner needs to do something for his campaign, or else his foes will eventually rally behind a strong anti-Romney candidate, and obliterate his path to the Republican nomination.
Pennsylvania Republicans do not vote for a long time, so anything can happen, but one thing is for sure: Romney's front runner status is very fragile and weak.
What say you?
