On Wednesday, Sarah Palin anounced that she will not seek the Republican nomination in 2012. New Jersey Republican Governor Chris Christie also announced this week that he would not run for President. The Republican field is taking shape and fundraising is expected to focus on the three main candidates. Michele Bachmann is likely to benefit the most from Sarah Palin making an official announcement. Romney is in a better position due to the absence of Christie in the race. However, Rick Perry is still the frontrunner and will benefit from a solid southern vote.
