NBC-Marist Iowa poll: Rick Santorum soars to third place behind Romney and Paul – Rick Perry now ahead of Gingrich

rick-santorumFirst it was the CNN Iowa GOP earlier this week that showed Rick Santorum jumping to third place in the state for the GOP caucuses. That was the first poll to show Santorum in double figures, let alone in third place and some wondered if it was anonymity.  Then the Rasmussen poll came out and showed Santorum in third in Iowa, so it showed that the CNN poll was legit. Today, a third poll from NBC-Marist College comes out, basically showing a carbon copy of the Rasmussen poll numbers. Romney barely ahead of Ron Paul, with Rick Santorum in third and Planet Newt Gingrich dropping like a rock.

Gingrich has gone from 28% in the last poll to just 13% of this poll, and Rick Perry has risen from 10% to 14%, ahead of Planet Gingrich.
