Yesterday, I pointed to a poll showing growing support for Mitt Romney in Iowa, with him in a strong third at 17 percent. Kathryn Jean Lopez declared, "that's MoMITTum. There may be more where that came from." Well, today, a new Strategic Vision poll is out in Iowa showing Romney a distant fourth, at 8 percent. Giuliani leads with 25 percent. You can argue about methodolgies, and obviously, it's early. But this just reinforces my view that thus far, there is no strong empirical evidence that Romney's buzz and strong organization is translating into real support. At a minimum, the data is inconclusive.
