with Fox News Poll added: Gingrich 36%, Romney 23%

Weighted 4-Poll Rolling Averages of the latest
20+ Polls listed at RCP [as of Dec 8th]
plus
YouGov polls 12/3, 11/26 11/19, 11/12, 11/5, 10/29, 10/22, 10/15, 10/08, &
Poll Position 12/04, 11/27, 11/22, 11/8, 11/1 polls inserted chronologically
Also the 11/9 - 11/14 Pew poll was broken into two, (3-day) polls

(Example methodology for this chart will be on my profile page)

Much like what the government does with unemployment statistics, this chart represents a 4-poll "rolling average" for the latest 20+ polls listed at RealClearPolitics.com (plus other recent national polls).

I also weighted the polls by their size. For example, a poll with a survey size of 1000 was weighted proportionately heavier than an 324 survey size.

Mister Gingrich... PLEASE propose this idea...

The Super Committee failed to find a way to CUT $1.2 Trillion (over ten years)

which equals $120 Billion per year...

Extending the payroll tax cut another year will cost TWICE that amount - $240 billion.

The recession is over. It is time for those who HAVE JOBS to start funding Social Security again or else it will go bust.

HOWEVER, if we MUST keep this Social Security revenue cut, PAY FOR IT elsewhere.

Here is a way....

Let the US impose a Foreign Sales Tax on Imports equal to the average (tariff PLUS sales taxes) on OUR goods.

If for example, if US goods sold in foreign countries are subject to an average of 15% (tariff + sales tax) in those foreign lands, then return the favor, by subjecting all FOREIGN GOODS to an EQUAL 15% import sales tax.
