It seems the Christian Conservatives and Republicans have made up their minds.
In a party that claims to have moralistic superiority when it comes to family values, Christian Conservatives in the Republican party have settled on Newt this-is-my-third-marriage-after-serving-my-wife-divorce-papers-while-she-laid-in-a-hospital-bed-recovering-from-cancer Gingrich.
A new Poll by Public Policy Polling in Iowa found that Gingrich, once left for dead in the Republican nomination process, has taken a commanding lead.
Newt Gingrich has taken the lead in PPP’s newest poll of Iowa Republican caucus voters with 27% to 18% for Ron Paul, 16% for Mitt Romney, 13% for Michele Bachmann, 9% for Rick Perry, 6% for Rick Santorum, 4% for Jon Huntsman, and 1% for Gary Johnson.
Gingrich has gained 19 points since PPP’s last poll of the race in early October. Also showing momentum are Paul whose support is up 8% and Bachmann whose support is up 5%. Romney has dropped 6 points since then with the other candidates mostly standing in place.
The poll was conducted between December 2nd and December 5th. PPP surveyed 572 Republican caucus voters. The margin of error is +/-4.1%
