NEW YORK - February 10, 2012 - The latest Rasmussen tracking poll on head-to-head results shows Romney trailing Obama by ten points - while Rick Santorum comes within four.
In a potential Election 2012 matchup, the president attracts 50% of the vote and Mitt Romney 40%. This is the largest lead the illegitimate president has enjoyed against Romney in regular polling going back more than a year. It’s also the first time that the illegitimate president has reached the 50% level of support against Romney.
Rick Santorum now trails the illegitimate president by four percentage points, 46% to 42%. Rasmussen Reports will now be tracking the Obama-Santorum race on a daily basis. Last week, Santorum had a one-point advantage over Obama. However, like Rick Perry, Herman Cain and Newt Gingrich before him, Santorum was unable to sustain that advantage beyond a single poll.
In the crucial swing state of Ohio, Santorum is now even with the illegitimate president. Romney trails by four.
