Mitt Romney has a 15-point lead over rival Newt Gingrich in Florida, just two days away from the state’s primary, a new poll shows.
The former Massachusetts governor has 42 percent support among likely GOP voters, compared to the former House Speaker’s 27 percent, according to the NBC News/Marist poll released Sunday. The poll includes undecided voters who are leaning toward a particular candidate.
“The bottom line in all this is Romney‘s sitting in the driver’s seat going into Tuesday,” Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion at Marist College, told MSNBC.
Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum came in third at 16 percent and Texas Rep. Ron Paul was fourth with 11 percent.
A separate poll released late Saturday had Romney with an 11-point lead over Gingrich, beating him 42 percent to 31 percent. Santorum had 14 percent and Paul had 6 percent, in the survey conducted by the Tampa Bay Times, Miami Herald and other news organizations.
Neither poll takes into account any potential boost Gingrich could receive from Saturday’s endorsement from Herman Cain.
The results are a setback for Gingrich, who saw his poll numbers in Florida surge following his Jan. 21 victory in South Carolina.
Gingrich on Sunday acknowledged his slide in the polls, and blamed Mitt Romney for “carpet-bombing“ him with ”Wall Street money” attack ads, Politico reported.
“If you’ll notice, when you get outside the zone where Romney carpet-bombs with Wall Street money, and you look at what’s happening in the rest of the country, I’m ahead in all three national polls that were released this week,” Gingrich said on ABC’s “This Week.“ ”It’s only when he can mass money to focus on carpet-bombing with negative ads that he gains any traction at all.”

Posted on January 29, 2012 at 11:40amThe Fla campain, what an absolute abomination! All I heard from Romney was attacks on Gingrich. No ideas, no solutions, just bumber sticker slogan and one lie after another. Gingrich has given us nothing but defensive slurs against Romney. Damnit folks, where are the issues, where do they stand on taxes, the budget, how to fix congress, etc, etc. All we are getting is the politics of personal distruction and slander. I’m damn tired of it! Romney started it in Iowa, Gingrich responded and the rest is discusting! We as conservatives are in BIG trouble and will probably loose this VERY IMPORTANT ELECTION because of it. OK Florida, looks like you are the ones who will allow this type of politicing to fram the outcome. Wake up and tell them this will not stand,

Report Post »carbonyes
Posted on January 29, 2012 at 12:03pmIf you recall, Santorum complained in the last debate about the questions being asked about non-issues and Gingrich and Romney arguing about non-issues. The only one of the three who was trying to get the focus on real issues was Santorum. The other two panderers were letting the moderaters make the both of them look like a couple of fools. Santorum can beat Obummer, for he has the Obamacare issue, as well as others that he can jump all over, neither Gingrich or Romney can attack Obama on Obamacare without getting their lunches eaten.
There’s no perfect candidate, but Santorum is definitely better than either Gingrich or Romney.
Romney is turning into first class azz with his false and misleading adds against Gingrich. If Santorum can get Gingrich to stick to the issues, they both can gang up on Romney and dust him by showing his ineptness in a number of areas and point out their strengths. In either case, they both would do better against Obama then the establishment candidate Willard Romney.
How would you like it if your parents had named you Willard. The poor guy had to fight through to excell just to overcome the negative effects of that handle. That doesn’t mean that people should feel sorry for Romney and give him the nomination, like the useful idiots who voted for Obama. What a frigging disgrace – Obama I’m talking about. Take his telepromter away from him and he has difficulty putting Two words together, let alone two sentences. Down with Obama!

Posted on January 29, 2012 at 10:03pmRomney is just a sore loser, or maybe it’s all his PAC friends that will do better in light of their candidate being in office, I don’t know who they are, but I sure as heck don’t want to see the results of that, which at this point will be exactly like the 2008 election, that part I can guarantee.
I don’t know how old a lot of you are, but I have been around long enough to remember the Newt periods,pre-Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton and on, and I remember the good and bad on Newt, the bad was personal, the good was what he pushed. Now the media wants us to think it was the opposite, and all these opposers, the way they are coming out and all, I wonder how much a statement costs these days? I wonder if it will show up on the PAC expenditures list.
Now think back since the beginning of Newt running for President and think about how many times any of these pundits have mentioned any positive accomplishments Newt accomplished. Does this tell you anything at all? Everyone knows the media is in the bag for BHO, so why would any good light be placed on someone they fear. They don’t fear Mitt because they know he is so weak on his governorship record they can beat him, but not Newt.
And the Progressive big government attack is a Saul Alynski tactic, there is absolutely no proof of it other than spread rumors and we all know it. The Congressional Voting record reflects Conservativsm 98 percent of the time, and 100 percent of the time his last year, period.

You should read “rules for radicals” then you might be able to defend yourself against people who would attempt to dupe you. Actually the question posed to Newt by Mr. king is what would be the Alinsky redirection in that instance.
Newt was smart enough to realize that the debates were meant to stay away from ACTUAL ISSUES and turn the republicans against each other. Of course DUMB A$$ Romney isn‘t smart enough to realize that and fell right into the liberal media’s hands, giving them fuel for the fire.
Which brings me to something I’ve said for years. IQ LIMITS FOR PRESIDENTS!!! Make a minimum IQ requirement of 100 so candidates like Mitt and Ron Paul can’t destroy this nation, George w. also. WE CAN’T CONTINUE TO ALLOW IDIOTS TO RUN OUR NATION!!!!

I also hope people are smart enough to actually check the accusations which show Newt was railroaded out of his Speaker position and that he was totally exhonorated, but since he was already out of office (it was a standard procedure for Republicans to do this), and that his congressional voting record does not give the impression that Newt is a Progressive, but the voting record for Mitt shows he is a Moderate Republican, which translates to Liberal for the rest of the nation.

Posted on January 29, 2012 at 11:10amAttended Rick Santorum rally in Stuart FL and attended Newt Gingrich rally in Port St Lucie, FL. The differences were amazing.
Report Post »Santorum stood on a simple stage among his supporter at a school ball field and spoke of how America is great because of her people; Gingrich talked about himself and how important he was in American history on a elevated stage with all the banners and blaring patriotic music at a country club golf coarse. A fence separated Gingrich’s stage from him supporters.
After speaking for at least an hour, Rick Santorum took questions from his crowd of supporters for another 20 to 30 minutes then went INTO the crowd for autograph signing, pictures, and answered questions from the local media. Gingrich walked along the fence shaking some hands and autograph signing for about 10 minutes and NEVER took questions from his supporters.
Rick Santorum‘s event was on a Tuesday early afternoon when most people are working and Newt Gingrich’s was on Sat morning when most people are, well, playing golf in sunny Florida. The turnout was about the same of about 700+ .

=============
By you, pre-schooled maybe.
“What is a brokered convention?
For many years, party primaries and caucuses have produced the successful nominees and conventions served to formally anoint the presidential candidates on the first ballot. But in the event of a competitive primary process, delegates at a convention could have more difficulty in reaching a clear majority of support for any one candidate. A brokering process then takes place, with multiple ballots a possibility. Though a brokered convention has not occurred in either party since 1952 when Adlai Stevenson won the Democratic nomination, some thought it was a strong possibility for either party in 2008 because of the closeness of both races. The superdelegates were “put in place partly to avoid exactly a brokered convention,” Beinart says. Superdelegates can “put someone over the top” with votes in order to prevent deadlock. It appears that neither party will have a brokered convention, as Obama and McCain were both able to attain the minimum number of delegates needed to clinch their respective party’s nomination.”

If Romney does not carry Florida, the chances of a brokered convention rises. Then if Gingrich carries Georgia then the odds are almost 100% we will have a brokered convention. Simply because it will make it impossible for anyone to get enough delegates to secure the nomination….The reason is because NEWT did not get on enough ballots..

Having failed miserably in the South Carolina primary the Washington DC Cronies’ Puppet Press has enhanced its efforts for the Florida primary. The Puppet Press or the has succeeded in focusing the debate on personal issues and statements made 20+ years ago, ignoring economic conditions and to candidate’s plans to save the Republic.
Is the purpose of the primary process to find an aggressive individual that has been active in public life for many years, never had marital problems, a sexual misadventure or made a statement to some woman that consider the statement offensive? Does such a man actually exist?
The destruction of the American Revolution is imminent. The purpose of the primary process is to select the person with the plan and ability to save the Republic.
The hysterical attacks on Mr. Gingrich by the Puppet Press using allegations about his personal life and 20+ year old quotations prove that the Washington DC cronies and their Puppet Press know that Mr. Gingrich must be stopped.
The Washington DC Cronies plan to choose both candidates for the 2012 election is succeeding. They expect to perpetuate the Cronyism Economic System and continue the harvest of the nation’s wealth.

We cannot continue on the path we are going, it will be the highlight of the Progressive, Communist and Marxist movements for a long time. They all said they couldn’t beat us on the battlefield and would get the media, infiltation into our government, and schools to break us down over time. We are at this point in time closer than we were than even the cold war era, so we have to make sure it doesn’t happen, so we decide, not the media, not the Saul Alynski talking points and clipped videos, but the actual voting records and actual lectures inside the House and Senate. I don’t think Mitt can survive this type of checking in his time as Governor, I think Newt can. We as individuals need to work together to not only find, but to show the truth, we know the media won’t, and if the unions are supporting a vote for Mitt, I sure ain’t for that candidate.

I also hate his s-eating grin he gets like a little girl whenever he thinks he’s made a point…he’s such a passive/aggressive phony.

Posted on January 29, 2012 at 11:19amPattyhenry………I agree with you. America needs a fighter this time around. We need someone like Newt to get into the trenches and clean out the pig stye that the White House has become.
I still believe that Romney was promised the nomination if he stepped aside and let McCain lose to Obama last time around and his desperation is showing in that sick smile of his.
Newt was Palined long before Sarah came onto the scene.

Posted on January 29, 2012 at 12:03pmSarah Palin on Judge Jeanine’s Show Saturday said she thought Newt would be the best
Report Post »candidate to go against Obama at this time. She also said on Sullivan‘s show she doesn’t think
she has the organization to put together something like this. I would just love for her to take
that smug look off Romney’s face and stick it to the GOP establishment and the MSM.

Posted on January 29, 2012 at 10:45amI was for Herman Cain before he was neutered by the press. I can’t agree with his endorsement, though. Maybe he was pressed by Newt.

Posted on January 29, 2012 at 7:14pmActually, what the picture says is this:
Report Post »Newt believes that it is the parents’ right to send their student to a charter school of their choice. In 2009, Rev. Al Sharpton and Secretary of Education Arne Duncan – decided that they agreed with the Gingrich position, and the group appeared in several events together promoting the charter school movement. Newt was not endorsing any other initiatives, including the Obama Administration’s so-called “Race to the Top.”
