***Rick is Newt’s main competition in the South- and hopefully, Romney’s attacks will bring Rick’s popularity down.***
This really has been a media driven, puff-laden popularity contest - based on good hair and fashion choices....nothing substantive.
If the candidates had remained anonymous and judged only on proposals, principles and common sense solutions (rather than personal attacks and physical appearance ie.Romney’s hair, Santorum’s youth) there would be no contest.
Newt has no competition in intellect and the capacity to be pro-active rather than reactive. A shepherd not a sheep.
