Quote:

"This has remained tight over each of the three days we have polled. McCain won in Michigan in 2000 and still has some good will in the state. And, of course, Michigan is Romney's home state -- his father was an automobile executive and a popular governor. Huckabee is running a credible third place here prior to his big showdown in South Carolina on Saturday with McCain, Romney, and Thompson.

"Romney has the support of Republicans (30% to 21% for Huckabee, and 20% for McCain) but McCain mops up among Independents (33%-18%), and among the more than one in six voters who are Democrats (35%-17%). Remember it was organized labor pushing Democrats to vote for McCain in 2000. This year, with no competitive Democratic race, there is less organizational effort, but still a combination of pro-McCain sentiment among Dems and a little mischief gives McCain his very slight lead.

"The top issue is the economy, cited by 47%, followed by the war in Iraq (18%), abortion (9%), immigration (8%), and the war on terrorism (6%). Among those who cite the economy, McCain and Romney are tied (25% for McCain, 24% for Romney). McCain leads on Iraq (33% to 27% for Romney). Huckabee dominates among those who said abortion (48%, McCain 18%, Romney 13%).

Immigration voters pick Romney 37% to 17% for McCain and 11% for Huckabee. And Romney is the favored candidate on the war on terror (34% to McCain's 28%). "Seventeen percent of McCain's supporters say that they have made up their minds only in the past few days, as do 10% of Romney's.
