Mitt Romney has stopped the bleeding and Newt Gingrich appears to have lost some momentum from his South Carolina primary victory. Both men can take something from this latest poll to come out of the Sunshine state which shows the candidates tied at 35% each. Rick Santorum came in a distant third with 9% and Ron Paul scored 8% in the Dixie Strategies/First Coast News survey

If Newt could actually squeak this one out it would be a real treat to hear Medved literally have a total meltdown on the radio Wednesday afternoon.
These polls are all over the place.
GREAT!!!!! See if Drudge will touch it.
Yep...the entertainment of Newt winning is worth it alone. If we are going to lose with Romney in the general we might as well have fun with the Primary.
Conservative: 44% (Newt+Santorum)
Establishment: 35% (Mittens)
Looking good!
It could be worse. ???
Most Santorum voters know he left for a reason and will feel ok crossing over to Newt. As much as we respect him it is time for him to unify the Conservative vote.
Pray for America
If it’s Romney, there will be buyers remorse extremely fast, as in before the convention. People will sit back and stay home, just like they did to McCain. Obama lite is no good.
Dropped off two early votes for Newt on Thursday.
The die is cast, ain’t watchin’ TV, definitely ain’t watchin’ no damn Fox News.
Here’s my prediction, if Newt can pull out a win in FL, Rush will jump on board! You can’t win the 2012 election against Obama with a candidate that 70% of your party base hates and who effctively makes Obamacare a non-issue.
At this moment there are 3 who appear to have studied the Founders in some depth.
It will be up to "the People," however, to hold their candidate accountable, once nominated.
Between the two mentioned here, Gingrich seems to be intellectually, and by a lifetime of study, qualified to craft an individual liberties, ideas-based campaign capable of exposing and defeating the "I-can-do-everything-for-you" enslaving ideas of Obama.
Romney displays no such study or grounding in principles underlying our freedom.
"Spending 25 years in the private sector" working and participating in the results of America's founding ideas does not, in itself, qualify one for defending the ideas that made it possible to do so.
When asked, Romney seems unable to set his answers in anything deeper than quotations from Reagan, patriotic songs, or familiar phrases from other speakers.
That kind of surface knowledge of the vast reservoir of ideas essential to liberty will not defeat an opponent who has immersed himself in the set of government-centered, tyrannical ideas to which he is committed and for which he has been mentored and trained to defend and cloak in a garment of benevolence.
Romney's offhandedness in describing the November 2012 opponent as just "in over his head" indicates unpreparedness for a battle of opposing ideas.
A Newt/Santorum ticket wouldn’t be all that bad.
They spin it like Newt’s the one who’s lost ground when Romney and his handlers are in flop sweat over the prospect of even have a CLOSE race in Florida where he’s been campaigning since 2008! And to a guy who’s been given up for dead twice, yet managed a huge turnaround only 2 weeks ago just up the road a piece.
I’m no fan of polls but even less a fan of those who try to interpret the tea leaves in asinine ways.
I guess it’s time to call the folks in Pensacola to make sure they go vote for Newt.
Have faith in the Tea Party, the aging heroes of this land who still have freedom coursing through their veins. Unfortunalely, it is left to us to wage the war and that means whatever it will take to right the state, since most of our youth have long since been cooped into the camp of the enemy.

it's hard to say...the Romney-Media-GOP ESTAB-most pundits/talkies attacks have had their desired effect
90% of the public persons we call GOP or conservative will support a non conservative (at all) candidate because:
1) electability in their mind
2) these folks are not social conservatives and views people who are as rubes..like the left does
3) they do not want to lose access
I would weight all those reasons about evenly but it has become clear to me that most public faces of conservatism are not good representatives and do not reflect us.
If Romney wins, how he won will be as disturbing as his leftist views and cooperation.
“GREAT!!!!! See if Drudge will touch it.”
No chance. Drudge has sold his soul to the Republican establishment. He is not interested in a free and open primary. He is interested in posting the lies and deceits of the establishment as has been shown on is site for the past weeks. GO NEWT GO!
