Santorum Surges: 18 Points Ahead Of Romney
(TheDailyCaller.com) Rick Santorum is smoking Mitt Romney in a Rasmussen poll of Ohio Republican voters released on Thursday. Santorum gets 42 percent in the swing state, a crucial one in the general election, while Romney sits 18 points behind at 24 percent. Newt Gingrich is in third at 13 percent and Ron Paul is at 10 percent.
If the field were to narrow to just Romney and Santorum, Santorum would flatten Romney 58 percent to 30 percent. Romney is not unpopular in the state, but Santorum is more popular, and his supporters feel more strongly toward him. Sixty-four percent of Ohio Republicans say they hold a favorable opinion of Romney, and just 33 percent say they have an unfavorable opinion. However, just 14 percent of those supporters feel very favorably toward them, and 50 percent just feel somewhat favorable. Santorum has a 75-19 favorability rating, but 38 percent of those who favor him feel strongly favorable.
