"A Donald Trump-Mitt Romney showdown in New Hampshire
Looks like Donald Trump's win-the-birthers strategy is working in New Hampshire — and that’s coming at the expense of front-runner Mitt Romney.
Romney leads the first-in-the-nation primary contest in a multitude of scenarios involving difference candidates, often by as much as a 2-1 margin, according to a survey out Tuesday from Public Policy Polling. But when Trump gets into the race, Romney’s edge shrinks to 6 points, 27 percent to 21 percent.
If Trump isn't included in the survey, Romney draws 32 percent of the vote, with Mike Huckabee a distant second at 15 percent.
The difference is the birthers: The Democratic polling shop found that Trump leads Romney among those who doubt President Barack Obama’s citizenship 22 percent to 21 percent. A previous PPP survey found that 42 percent of New Hampshire GOPers don't believe Obama was born in America.
The survey of 384 Republican primary voters in the state has a sampling error of plus or minus 5 percent."

FED-UP!
"POLL: Trump's 'birther' strategy working in NH... (via Drudge)"
Trump is on the climb in a very short time period.
The Donald is going to make this a lively campaign!
I am enjoying this, but still doubt that the GOP base is gonna nominate a guy on his third wife.

Donald Trump is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
RomneyCare should just give it up.
Donald Trump didn’t get to where he is by being a dummy. Something tells me he already has the answer to his “birther” question and is waiting to play the TRUMP card at the right time.
I swear, Romney has been campaigning almost as long as the big-eared one. I just hope his lame reasons, excuses about Romneycare fall on deaf ears.
“the TRUMP card”. Good one!
” Donald Trump is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama. “ =====================
Thanks for the reminder. Every Republican candidate should post his bona fides during the primary, to underscore the fact that the other guy can’t produce a long form birth certificate! Anybody can print up a version like Obama tried to pass off as a real BC.
The fact is the usurper has a fake BC on the internet! Go Donald it is going to be fun watching the Kenyan Clown twisting this.
Ya know, if it came down to a choice between Mitt and Trump, I’d choose Mitt.
Excellent!
Dunno. I’d love to hear The Donald tell half the federal drones “You’re fired!”
But Bill O’Reilly, Glenn Beck, all the other potential GOP candidates, everyone at MSNBC/CNN/Time/NY Slimes/Wash Post/Politio/Huffington Post told me the birther question was a losing issue.
One can only hide the truth for so long. It eventually makes it self known......sometimes by “force”.
Thanks to all the “birthers” out there who have done MUCH research on their own time and dime and passed it along to the rest of us and would NOT allow this lie to stand.
God Bless America and it’s true Americans!!
