Republican Party Watch: Romney leads Pack, Palin
nnLast month I examined the current landscape of the Republican leadership, and now, courtesy of the latest Gallup Poll, we transition to a similar topic - the leading candidates for the GOP Presidential Candidate in 2012.nnIn our previous Gallup Poll, Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich had a very slight edge over the rest of the field as the most influential speakers representing the Republican party, but in spite of this neither Limbaugh or Gingrich polled as a particularly serious contender for the GOP nomination in 2012: Romney 26%, Palin 21%, Huckabee 19%, Gingrich 14%.

Does the new Republican Party have a foreign policy strategy?
Foreign Policy writer Daniel Drezner writes that Republicans don't have a unified view on foreign policy - their only real position is to oppose President Obama.

Latest Poll: Republicans Lack Leader - I Blame McCain
nnnExactly who speaks for the Republican Party these days? According to the latest Gallup poll, 18% of democrats think Rush Limbaugh is the primary speaker for the Republican Party, while republicans themselves can't come to more than a 10% consensus for any republican leader. Only a year ago the answer would have been a resounding 'John McCain.' But the subsequent political maneuverings of the McCain campaign not only compromised McCain as the present and future leader of the Republican Party, but also left the party without a clear direction, as reflected in this latest poll. Even during the Republican primaries there was a great deal of political division among the republican presidential candidates and the priorities of their voter constituencies - most notably between the Christian base of Mike Huckabee, the Mormon and fiscal bases of Mitt Romney, and the military and moderate republican bases of John McCain.
