Gingrich takes charge of First Place in GOP polling.

Gingrich is the only primary candidate experiencing a substantial upward trend. He scores
higher than Romney, but Romney is trending down as is Herman Cain; Perry appears to be
a "goner" as does Ron Paul and the rest of the field.

With the new Fox News poll, Newt Gingrich’s poll trend now puts him in first place in the GOP national polls. Gingrich now leads Romney 21.9% to 20.5%. Given the considerable volatility we’ve seen all year in the polls this difference is certainly not “significant” but it further illustrates how dynamic the GOP race has been and continues to be.

Meanwhile, Herman Cain’s support continues to plummet, down to 15% in the Fox poll and a trend estimate of 17.6% (but with recent polls below the trend, suggesting the likelihood of further decline.)
