New Hampshire Poll: Romney Maintains Strong Lead, But Perry Jumps Into Second
Romney 36%, Perry 18%. Um, Ron Paul has 14%, and Bachmann 10%.
Good poll for both Romney and Perry -- Perry gets second place after announcing, but Romney holds his critical first-in-the-nation primary state with a strong lead, guaranteeing he can't be knocked out (if that even seemed a possibility).
Among all voters surveyed Romney remains very popular with a favorable rating of 66% and an unfavorable rating of 24%. Perry also has a significantly favorable image ratio of 51% F / 27% U.
Other candidates though are seeing their negative image ratings rise. Bachmann is still more popular than not with a 49% favorable rating. But 39% say they have an unfavorable opinion of her.
