Most Influential Republicans and Possible 2012 Contenders

Here is what he had to say about Mitt Romney:

Mitt Romney: The former Massachusetts governor, who has been among the most prolific endorsers among potential 2012 candidates, is now backing candidates in more than half of all 50 states – a milestone that speaks to the strong groundwork Romney is laying for his all-but-certain presidential bid. Romney’s refusal to get mixed up in the controversy over the proposed Islamic center near ground zero – and his unyielding focus on the economic issues – demonstrate his keen political acumen and his realization that the economy remains the main concern for voters this cycle, and likely beyond.

Here is the full list of those that made the top ten:
1. Haley Barbour 2. Sarah Palin 3. Mitt Romney 4. Tim Pawlenty 5. John Boehner 6. John Cornyn 7. JIm DeMint 8. Mitch Daniels 9. Mike Huckabee 10. Pete Sessions
