Romney leads a tightly bunched GOP primary field in NC

from Under the Dome blog  :


Romney leads a tightly bunched GOP primary field in NC:
The May 8th North Carolina Republican primary depends on the Newt Gingrich factor.
If the former House speaker remains in the race, then Mitt Romney is leading among North Carolina Republicans. But if Gingrich drops out of the race, conservatives rally around Rick Santorum.
That is according to a new survey by Public Policy Polling, a Democratic leaning firm based in Raleigh.



Sounds about right. Romney has a base of conservative-lite supporters that is consistently larger than his competitors, but his competitors are dividing the remaining majority that is not conservative-lite.
