Latest Poll: Romney-Gingrich Dead Heat In Florida
America's Conservative News ^ | 01/28/2012 | America's Conservative News

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

We have to appeal to Santorum and Paul voters to vote for Newt and keep this race going. Florida is winner take all. Santorum and Paul have left to go fight in other states. They know they can't win in Florida. We need Santorum and Paul voters to help us stop Mitt or other state races won't matter for either of them.

In Florida, a vote for Newt is a vote against Mitt, and for We the People. Mitt and the GOP establishment must be stopped. If you are on Twitter, appeal to Santorum and Paul voters.

Santorum may believe that Gingrich will melt-down, leaving him as the last remaining “anti-Romney”.

Exactly. Like letting a failed company go bankrupt rather prop up with bailouts. Weigh our principles; is it better to support a man with no character and the GOP establishment or let them fail and try to remove Obama while in second term through impeachment or demands of the people he step down? You know if Obama has a second term he will be twice as radical.

I don’t believe these wildly-swinging polls. I’m thinking the reason the polls are now showing Newt ahead is because they want to retain some credibility when Newt wins.

Offer Santorum Health and Human Services in the cabinet, not VP.
Newt would benefit from asking someone like Allen West or Susanna Martinez.

I’m doing same, chris: living in a NO FAUX ZONE.
Besides not having to listen to any “F and B” token Demorats spew their talking points, it’s really refreshing to not have to watch the pig in a zipline commercial, Jos. A. Bank or the lib water one that ends with an Asian woman on a computer saying “I’ve got a great idea”.

Ann Coulter and Matt Drudge are buddies and she is sometimes his ‘walker’. This is coming up again now because of Matt Drudge’s war against Newt .. I remember the story … I was still in DC at the time …… Brit Hume’s son, Sandy aka Alexander, was a drinker who has fallen off the wagon and been arrested for DWI and tried to hang himself in jail …. He was released and went home and ate a shotgun

That ‘back pain’ pill popping weasel Joe Scarborough was more likely the guy who outed Hume and Paxton … but there has been lots of speculation tossed Newt’s direction given FOX’s stilted coverage of Newt

Did Newt Gingrich Out Brit Hume’s Dead Gay Son?

I'm hoping we'll see Rush and Palin on board on Monday when the news can make a splash in the last cycle before the election

The recent Tea Party surge for Newt might be exactly the thing that swings it for Newt. The MSM is not nearly as dominant in Florida anymore. Computer news has taken the stage.

Romney is nothing more than a liar and a phony. He can’t hide that in his behavior and body language. It is all too obvious that Romney is not telling the truth about himself and that he is just not natural.

I can read him like a 3 dollar bill.

heh. I am enjoying the heck out of watch Man, Woman, Wild...and up soon...Dual Survival! Gimmie dat!

I can’t escape the pig on a zip line commercial though...it’s everywhere.

As far as Faux News goes though...pointless. Don’t care what they think. Could watch for months and still won’t care what they think about anything at all. I came to a conclusion in November 2008 that it is a pointless waste of time to watch any sort of news at all, unless it’s like breaking emergency weather news or something like that.

This 24 hour analysis garbage can take a flying leap.

If it’s a squeaker, then consider it a loss, as the results will be Frankenized

I think Santorum is angling to be Mitt’s VP. He might offset the anti-Mormon vote.

That is Soro’s suggestion for a Romney VP.

“Willard has stopped the bleeding.”? I wish Newt was “bleeding” as much.
The internals of this poll show it is five times bigger than any of the polls we have been allowed to see.
A 2500 respondent sample is very large for a state poll.
This suggests there is reason to believe Newt can still win.
Paray for him and America.
