Quote:

The Republican survey contest reflects the dramatic changes that have occurred since December, when Giuliani had a 23 percent to 21 percent edge over Huckabee among likely GOP voters in the state. That earlier poll found McCain in fourth place with 12 percent support, behind Romney with 14 percent.

Since that time, McCain has gained momentum by winning contests in New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida, interrupted by Romney's victories in Wyoming, Nevada and Michigan.
