b. Barack Obama 53% Michele Bachmann 35%
c. Barack Obama 52% Tim Pawlenty 34%
d. Barack Obama 53% Herman Cain 32%
e. Barack Obama 57% Sarah Palin 35%
Favorable Ratings:
a. Michele Bachmann 30%/40% for -10%.
b. Herman Cain 19%/31% for -12%.
c. Mitt Romney 31%/47% for -16%.
d. Tim Pawlenty 19%/37% for -18%.

There's not much to say here. Obama won the state by 16% in 2008, and is likely to romp again.
