Poll: Rick Santorum takes slight lead in GOP race - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

Rick Santorum has pulled slightly ahead of Mitt Romney in Republican primary voters' preference for the presidential nomination, a national CBS News/New York Times Poll shows.

Ron Paul is now in third, followed by former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich.

Rick Santorum: No longer such a long-shot

Just three points over Romney, Santorum's lead in the national survey is within the poll's margin of error, but after wins last week in three states, 30 percent of Republican primary voters now say they support Santorum for the nomination.
