Rick Santorum now leads Mitt Romney nationally according to latest Pew Research poll

rick-santorumThis is now the second poll to show Rick Santorum leading Willard Mitt Romney nationally. The left wing biased PPP actually put Santorum ahead of Romney by fifteen points over this past weekend. This poll from Pew Research Center seems a little more believable. Santorum leads Willard by 2 points.

Rick Santorum’s support among Tea Party Republicans and white evangelicals is surging, and he now has pulled into a virtual tie with Mitt Romney in the race for the Republican presidential nomination. In polling conducted Feb. 8-12, 30% of Republican and Republican-leaning registered voters favor Santorum while 28% favor Romney. As recently as a month ago, Romney held a 31% to 14% advantage over Santorum among all GOP voters.
