Huckabee First Nation Wide!

On the Republican side, Gallup says Iowa caucuses winner Mike Huckabee has jumped into a national lead for the first time. The rundown: Huckabee, 25%; Rudy Giuliani, 20%; Sen. John McCain, 19%; Fred Thompson, 12%; Mitt Romney, 9%; and Rep. Ron Paul, 4%.

Huckabee's support rose 9 percentage points from mid-December. McCain's rose 5 points. Giuliani's fell 7 points. Thompson's fell 2 points. Romney's fell 5 points.

The surveys of 423 "Republicans or Republican leaners" and 499 "Democrats or Democratic leaners" each have margins of error on all results of +/- 5 percentage points. The polls were conducted Friday-Sunday.

As we noted earlier, Rasmussen Reports said today that its daily tracking poll showed Clinton's lead over Obama nearly gone and that Huckabee had edged ahead among Republicans.
