Palin Gains 5 Points In New Gallup Poll-Effectively Tied For First Place

Coming on the heels of Palin being in first place in the latest poll of the GOP in Texas, Gallup has just published its findings of Republican voters preferences subsequent to Daniels, Huckabee and Trump not running (they did an allocation analysis previously which also showed Palin effectively tied for the lead with Romney).


Palin has jumped 5% from her 10% rating in the previous Gallup poll in April to Romney gaining 4%. 


These results will undoubtedly be just an indication of Palin's level of support with the rank and file-who are the most important voters at this point as they, not the wider public, and especially the Beltway insiders, will determine who the nominee is.
