(CNN) – Sarah Palin's support among likely Republican primary voters is fading according to a newly-released Gallup poll, the second national survey this week to indicate the Alaska Republican is headed in the wrong direction as the 2012 primary race gears up.

According to the Gallup survey, which was released Friday, Palin draws 12 percent of support from Republicans and Republican-leaning independents - a 4 percent decline from a similar Gallup survey conducted one month ago. Those results are similar to a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll released earlier this week showing Palin had fallen 7 points between January and March, from 19 percent to 12 percent.

Recent surveys from Pew and NBC News also indicate the former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee's current support hovers around the low double digits – a definitive drop from her showings in similar polls earlier this year.

Meanwhile, the new Gallup poll indicates former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee remains on top of the GOP presidential field with 19 percent, followed by former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, at 15 percent. Both men, who made bids for the White House in the 2008 campaign, remain within the survey's sampling error. But should Huckabee and Palin decline to run - as both have shown signs they may - the poll shows Romney's support surges to 22 percent.

2. And Coincidentally

Michelle Bachmann is stepping up to the plate.

6. Yep...Palin created the template, Bachmann took it and ran with it

I think the difference (and this is just my opinion) is that Palin comes across as mean and unlikeable, while Bachmann always seems to be in good cheer while being misinformed and crazy as a bedbug.

And granted, Bachmann has voiced some of the same talking points Palin has...but Palin's snark meter is off the charts, while Bachmann works the Marge Gunderson thing for all it's worth, and I think people simply respond better to that.

4. Last sentence: "...Romney's support surges to 22 percent."

5. 12 percent of Republican Primary Voters? Pretty much knuckle dragger territory.

And maybe only half of them at that. Pretty bad when you can only get half the knuckle dragger vote and no one else.

7. Too bad. Republican primary voters have caught on to her toxicity.

They figured it out: she's unelectable. And that sucks. They are going to finish her off in the primary before the rest of us can finish her off in a magnificent 49 state landslide.

8. Palin won't run, she's a coward

A coward and a bully, who couldn't handle the pressure of being governor of Alaska.
