CNN's Paul Steinhauser says Mitt Romney's headed to ground zero in the Reagan Revolution this weekend for a speech to the Young America's Foundation.
Romney is expected to be the dinner banquet speaker for the foundation's West Coast Leadership Conference, which consists of young conservatives from 44 colleges and universities across 12 states.
Speaking of Mitt Romney and young conservatives, now's a good time to mention an informal poll The Corner's John J. Miller recently took.
Over the weekend, I spoke at a conference of conservative college newspaper editors.... At the end of my remarks on Friday night, I took a poll. Who did they prefer for the Republican nomination in 2012? I gave them a list of ten choices, asked them to make a pick even if they're truly undecided, and took a show of hands.
The result: Mitt Romney is the clear favorite. Bobby Jindal and Tim Pawlenty were neck-and-neck for second place. The others (Mitch Daniels, Newt Gingrich, Mike Huckabee, Bob McDonnell, Sarah Palin, Mike Pence, and Gen. David Petraeus) barely registered. Sarah Palin was not popular with this group.
