Yeah, what ? Newt has only one state ? and Rick Santorum has more than any other candidate ?.
In case you have not noticed, the Newt supporters are also celebrating victories that Newt has not gotten either.

Rick Santorum has taken the arrows from the left for years, if not for decades, he is well seasoned for it.
Rick Santorum is not as green as many Newt supporters make him out to be.
You and many Newt supporters make it sound like that you want the MSM to go after him.

The Newt supporters seem to forget when Newt was younger when he got into the GOP and there are many videos having him talk about his admiration of progressives like FDR, Teddy Roosevelt, and Woodrow Wilson.
There is also a video that even shows Newt in his own words saying that he came into the GOP as a Roosevelt, Rockefeller, ENVIRONMENTALIST ... yes, you heard it right, a environmentalist.
Newt still touts the virtues of the likes of Woodrow Wilson, Teddy Roosevelt, and FDR.

“There is also a video that even shows Newt in his own words saying that he came into the GOP as a Roosevelt, Rockefeller, ENVIRONMENTALIST ... yes, you heard it right, a environmentalist.”

I don’t think even Teddy Roosevelt would come up with a plan to put giant mirrors in space.

Negative view: This is a soft-numbered 750 : +/-4, and yet this poll will spur Mittens cadre to pump commercial money into Ohio earlier than planned.

Also on Rasmussen's site:
"Still, despite Santorum’s recent surge, most Ohio primary voters (55%) think Romney ultimately will win the Republican nomination. Just 26% see Santorum as the GOP nominee."

When my quarterback had the ball I was rooting for him, I am still rooting for him and I will continue to root for him. This game is a long way from over, regardless of what you may preach.

Newt is out when he says he is...... and not one second sooner.

I want you to vote for the guy that you believe in your heart is the best guy to lead this country out of these dark times.... I will do the same.

To be clear, I WILL NOT take part in giving the GOP-e what they want. I WILL NOT yield to the wishes of those bastards at Fox news who are trying to help shove a candidate down our throats, the rest of MSM, or the turncoat RINO’s that brainwash the masses on the radio. I truly don’t give a flip what these as$hats have to say.

I am seeing dirty politics and considering what is at stake, it pi$$es me off more than ever.

I do not surrender, I have to be beaten. I do not follow sheep, never have and I’ll be damned if I’ll start now. I am 63 and that makes me too old to be a snot nosed sissy that lets others think for him.

I fully recognize that my guy may not win, the deck is now stacked against him at the moment, but as long as he has fight in him, I’ll support him.

Again, you go right ahead and vote for Santorum.... he is a fine man to many, just not to me.

By now you may have figured out what I think you can do with that football of yours.

Have a delightful day....

GO NEWT GO—it’s about the survival of our country!!

I'm asking the same question, ruschpa. Santorum couldn't beat Hillary in NY for the Senate seat and freepers think he can beat Obama?
I must be living in la la land because there is no way Santorum could or would win.........NEVER!
WAKE UP OHIOANS and those in the Tea Party, we don't have a true conservative in this race.

Yes. I think people are tired of the negatives and now want to hear what they will do. I think continuing to go negative on the candidates every time she was on camera cost Bachmann her spot. A certain amount, yes. After that, get back on message.

Since you are unwilling to vote in multiple states I’m thinking you just don’t care.

A poll like this is the result of cheery picking the respondents. Use “adults” or “ registered voters” rather than likely or certain voters and the Left scores a bigger percentage. Then a 1000 respondents is only about 20 per state and can be manipulated by carefully selecting the area codes called.

A lead within or barely outside the margin of error after Republicans have been gutting each other will disappear when the attacks on Urkel start in earnest.

Santorum can definitely beat the Commie if he does not hold back.

The Left hates Santorum as much as Newt. Vote for him because he is better looking.

If you know anything about American political history there is no reason for you to be anything but pessimistic. Our electorate is made up of the ignorant, corruptible and the indifferent with maybe 40% having their heads on straight.

BTAIM I think Mitt or Rick could beat Urkel. Newt would have the hardest time but he might as well. Certainly I would enthusiastically vote for him over Urkel and even more enthusiastically for Rick.
