Team Newt brags that they have picked up $1 million in donations and 500 new volunteers in Florida since Saturday:
INSIDER ADVANTAGE POLL: The firm’s latest Florida poll shows the race as Newt at 34% and Mitt Romney at 26.
GALLUP NATIONAL POLL: Last week, Gallup’s Frank Newport said that Governor Romney’s national lead was “collapsing.” The latest Gallup tracking data shows that it continues to fall. Now, Romney is at 30%, with Newt at 25%. Romney lost one point and Newt gained two in the latest release.
KNOCKOUT PUNCH MONEYBOMB: In less than 24 hours after the South Carolina victory, Newt 2012 raised more than one million dollars.
VOLUNTEERS: 500 in Florida alone have signed up since Saturday, bringing the total in the Sunshine State to 5,000.
Nationally, thousands of volunteers have joined the campaign the last 24 hours.
Gotta take it to Mitt now, and as hard as we can.
I’m going to help Newt win the state of Florida against O and the RINOs.
Even though I voted for Santorum my state picked Newt so he will be our nominee.
I still like Rick but Newt is it so roll Joejah Boy!
I received 2 calls from him/his campaign. And no candidate has ever called me before! His team is working hard on very little money!
I hope he gets at least 40% like he did in SC. 50% would be better!
Go Florida - make the nation proud! Be the state to kick mitt to the curb.
I sent him $50.00 when Perry threw in the towel. If he wins Florida I’ll probably send him more.
I sent 25 on Saturday night and signed up to volunteer. I’ll try to send another donation the evening of the 31st.
Fox News just played a clip of Mitt talking about Newt. He’s scared!
I’d like to give Newt money but every politician I support ends up losing. I don’t want to jinx him. I wish I had my Cain money back!
I saw that.
The words "fragile" and "desperate" came to mind.
Mittwit took the gloves off, and revealed his shivering knuckles.
His attack on Newt was really low and pathetic.
Every time Newt has an appearance, speech, interview, etc., he needs to act as if the primaries are over and he IS the GOP candidate against Hussein. Taking on that persona might make him look even stronger and intimidate Romney. Plus, he needs to verbally attack, attack, attack Hussein, making the first strike every time, instead of waiting to respond to Hussein and his MSM talking heads. Be so fast and prolific that those guys won’t know what hit them. (I love to watch Jay Carney squirm!)
Great and helping him is fighting the media, also, along with the establishment. And when he wins he will take on the LIBERAL judges!
WOO HOO!! America, the beautiful, is smiling on Newt!
***His attack on Newt was really low and pathetic***
He has been reading from the Dem blog sites, i.e. Freddie Mac (which he referred to as ‘people like that’) and calling Newt a lobbyist, insider and snidely ‘historian’.
The Mitt is mentally unhinged.
I’ll vote for him but won’t send a dime.
Until just a few days before the Saturday Primary, I had thought about voting for Santorum based on one issue: his history of standing against abortion.
Well, like a lightbulb in a cartoon, it dawned on me that Santorum was campaigning on a platform of self-righteousness...that he believed he is holier than the others who are running. I began to pay closer attention to the manner in which Santorum brags on himself and saw similarities to Romney’s style of boasting.
So, I voted for the candidate who was honest about having sins in his past, as do I, but has moved on. Four votes from this household for Gingrich.
Turnout from the base is up about 30% this year and yet Mitt struggles to repeat his vote totals from 2008. It’s clear that the base does not want Mitt. IF he goes scorched Earth to eliminate Newt, that 30% stays home again in 2012 and Obama repeats.
It’s telling that Mitt is willing to go down this route.
A lot of people don’t have much money to spare right now, but if you want to do your part, try sending $10 to Newt’s campaign. Unfortunately, money plays a big part. I plan on sending $10, but send what you can afford. Hopefully Santorum sees the big picture and eventually backs Newt. We need every conservative vote we can get to stop the elite media from picking our candidate for us.
ANd now they have uber-Rino Scot Brown on singing the praises of Mittens! Big surprise - not.
You guys are true patriots! It is now or never. I will be donating and making calls for Newt. LET’S MAKE IT A BLOWOUT IN FLORIDA TOO!!!!!
LOL. That will help Newt more than it does Mitt.
