Poll results
Before the announcement, you ought to know that I have a 2nd place bet with another blogger. It was pointless to bet on the winner because we're both sure it's Huckabee. She has Romney for runner-up, and I have the rest of the field. That sums up the weekend nicely.
Speaking of other bloggers, Rob Tice Lalka cranked out some terrific live-blogging over at Faith Democrats this weekend. His ability to simultaneously describe and analyze is outstanding. Take a look.
Poll results:
Top Issues
1. Life

4. permanent tax relief for families
Candidates
1. Romney - 1595
2. Huckabee - 1565
3. Paul - 868

Missed the part about the online polling. Shocking result, but it looks like I still win my bet.

1. Huckabe - 488

Brody has some interesting analysis of both sets of poll results and notes that even though Huckabee came in second online, that close margin, plus the overwhelming on site win makes him the story coming out of the con.
That said, the FRCBlog results match a certain prognostication.
