Repubs need to remember "a vote for Huckabee is a vote for John McCain." Reverse psychology might be at play as well in the latest Zogby poll for CA: >By John Whitesides, Reuters Political Correspondent WASHINGTON - Republican results of a Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby poll released on Monday: In the Republican race, Arizona Sen. John McCain solidified his double-digit leads over Mitt Romney in New York and New Jersey, but Romney expanded his lead in California, the biggest prize on "Super Tuesday." Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, led McCain 40 percent to 32 percent in California, where the margin of error was 3.3 percentage points. A win in California, the most populous state, could help puncture McCain's growing momentum in the Republican nomination fight. McCain won the last two contests, in South Carolina and Florida, to seize the front-runner's slot in a hard-fought Republican race despite qualms among conservatives about his past views on taxes, immigration and campaign finance. "Romney is widening his lead in California and has a really big advantage with conservatives," Zogby said. "Romney winning California would give some Republicans pause when they look at McCain as the potential nominee." Romney said he would cut short a scheduled trip to Georgia and fly back to California on Monday for a last-minute campaign visit. 'A GOOD SHOT' "People there are taking a real close look at the race and it looks like I've got a good shot there," Romney told reporters. In Missouri, McCain leads former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee by 35 percent to 27 percent, with Romney in third place at 24 percent. The margin of error was 3.4 percentage points. "Huckabee and Romney are splitting the anti-McCain vote in states like Missouri," Zogby said.
