While our real need is to focus on the upcoming 2010 elections, it’s still always interesting to peek at polls and see what could be in store for 2012. Zogby Polls surveyed Republicans, Dems, and Independents and found Sarah Palin, Mitt Romney, and Bobby Jindal to all be in a three-way tie as the preferred GOP candidate for 2012.

Amongst Republican voters alone, Sarah Palin carried the votes with 24.4% to Romney in second place with 18.1% and Jindal in third with 15.6%. Mike Huckabee, who ended up with the second most delegates in the GOP primaries, slipped down to 4th place with just 9.7%.

From Zogby’s breakdown for Sarah Palin’s base, it’s easy to see where Huckabee’s previous core has shifted:

Palin’s strength is with all conservatives, conservative religious voters and gun owners. Among Republicans, she gets the support of 30% of Born-Again Christians, 32% of weekly churchgoers, 34% of National Rifle Association members, 28% of current gun owners and 29% of self-identified conservatives. More GOP support comes from 32% of blue collar workers, 30% who shop weekly at Wal-Mart, 28% of NASCAR fans and 25% of both those with children under 17 and those with family members in the military. She scores lower among GOP voters ages 18-29, with 15%.

From your perspective today, who would get your vote in 2012? Palin, Romney, Jindal, Huckabee, or someone else? Let’s hear it!
