A survey from the highly respect--and often very accurate--Des Moines Register reports that Mitt Romney now leads with 24%, followed by Ron Paul at 22%, Rick
Santorum at 15%, Newt Gingrich at 12%, Rick Perry at 11%, Michele
Bachmann at 7%. The bog news may well be Santorum's surprisingly strong showing: "If the
final two days of polling are considered separately, Santorum rises to
second place, with 21%, pushing Paul to third, at 18%. Romney remains
the same, at 24%."

While the political and electoral news today is no doubt distracting, Polltrack would like to turn your attention to ReConstitution, an exciting series of videos just up on Voices on the Ground. The videos were created by Sosolimited, a three man audio-visual ensemble. They have written software that analyzes the spoken words, gesticulations, and cadences
of candidates
throughout the presidential debates. Their videos are fascinating. Take a look.
