Paul keeps pole position in ‘16 GOP presidential field; Huckabee second in new poll

A new nationwide poll found that Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee are leading the field of potential 2016 presidential candidates.

Mr. Paul and Mr. Huckabee won support from 13 percent of those surveyed, while former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was nipping at their heels with 11 percent.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz each pulled in 9 percent.
“With a field of quality candidates, it is no surprise that no one has broken away from the pack,” said Chris Wilson, CEO of WPA Opinion Research, which did the poll. “The important thing at this point of the race is staying in the conversation, and the fact that Rand Paul, Huckabee, Bush, Christie and Cruz are all managing to do that bodes well for them long term.”

Jeb Bush... Christie, and Huckabee... "quality candidates"...? Really? Another inside the beltway big government opinion... Let's hope that Paul or a similar conservative candidate gets traction...

Much rather have Ron then Rand.. but will support Rand..Somehow I think Rand puts on an act and is just a part of the Fraternity..

Was it Mao who said something along the line of..One dissenter out of Twelve is necessary?

Rand supporting the RINO McConnell is out!

Christie supporting Gun Control and Illegal Alien In-State Tuition is out!

The Bush name isn't the most favorite - slightly better than Obama and Clinton though...

Has anyone heard if Huckabee wants in?!
