For the GOP nomination: 1) Mitt Romney 24.5 percent, 2) Mike Huckabee 11.1 percent, 3) Sarah Palin 10.5 percent, 4) Newt Gingrich 8.9 percent
Interesting that Jindal's not even listed yet.
Odds that the Republicans will win in 2012: 40%

No list is valid without Jindal. The 2012 nomination is going to be a fight between Romney and Jindal, at least I hope so.
I refuse to believe that the GOP could be so stupid as to actually nominate a hillbilly like Mike Huckabee or Sarah Palin. If Sarah Palin's interview with Katie Couric wasn't enough to convince people that Palin isn't a viable national candidate (not to mention she's not really fit to be President), then the GOP is truly a lost party.
BTW, I would welcome Newt Gingrich running. He would bring some candidness and intelligence to the race, I think.
