Another, non-Romney becomes the front-runner. Look for the media to start the attacks on Newt like they did with Herman Cain.
Cain has shot himself badly in the foot with his Libya fiasco. Too bad, he should’ve been better prepared to at least give the impression he’s comfortable handling foreign policy. As for Newt, he’s earned a shot at the top spot coming from way back in the pack.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich of Georgia has pulled ahead of former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, taking a narrow within-the-margin-of-error lead over Romney in Gallup's latest national poll of registered voters who are Republicans and Republican-leaning independents.
Gingrich had the support of 22 percent of these registered voters and Romney had the support of 21 percent, according to the poll, which was conducted Nov. 13-17 and released today.
The poll surveyed 946 registered voters who are Republicans or Republican-leaning independents and had a margin of error of +/- 4.
Former Godfathers Pizza CEO Herman Cain was third in the poll with 16 percent, followed by Rep. Ron Paul of Texas with 9 percent, Texas Gov. Rick Perry with 8 percent, Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota with 4 percent, former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman with 1 percent, and former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania with 1 percent
