And the identity of the real Republican frontrunner is ... unknown

And the identity of the real Republican frontrunner is ... unknown

by Jed Lewison

CBS. (PDF) 11/6-10. Republicans. MoE ±5% (chart shows date of poll release):



I put up a post on these numbers earlier, highlighting the fact that Herman Cain was leading with just 18% and that Newt Gingrich was apparently rising from the ashes. But I also complained the the full results weren't available, and now that that they are, you can see why they are important: nearly one-third of Republican voters say they don't know who they plan to vote for, or they plan to vote for someone who wasn't on the debate stage Wednesday night.

Here's how close things are: Herman Cain and Rick Perry are separated by 10 points. That's a smaller gap than separates Herman Cain from the undecided/other category. And while Mitt Romney is alleged to have locked the nomination up, he's down six points in this poll.

3. Wow, has the flip-flopper slipped?
Wasn't Romney up in the 20s not too long ago and now even with Newtered? It looks like any one of them is just one insane new policy idea from going into the lead.

4. Undecided/Other is not a serious candidate
Probably just in it as a prelude to a book tour and weekly show on Fox News. But, might be considered a popular choice for the VP position.

It's always :silly: season in the GOP.
