With the Republican presidential candidates gearing up for a debate in Iowa Thursday and a key straw poll in Ames on Saturday, a new national poll reveals how high the stakes are, as all eyes turn to the Hawkeye State.
A poll taken across the nation by Gallup for USA Today shows a close battle for the Republican presidential nomination and that President Barack Obama remains vulnerable in his bid for a second term.
The poll, unveiled on Monday, reveals that former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts remains the front-runner in the contest for the Republican nomination. Romney, who ran for the Republican nomination in 2008, took 24 percent. Gov. Rick Perry of Texas, who is expected to formally enter the race in the coming days, stood in second with 17 percent. Another favorite son of the Lone Star State -- U.S. Rep. Ron Paul -- is in third with 14 percent, while U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota took fourth with 13 percent.
