Go Gingrich!
Newt has really maximized his strengths with all of these Televised Debates....Perry has destroyed his personal chances.+
Interesting that evangelicals are big supporters. He’s flawed. But who else do we have?
Two to one! Very good. :) I guess after 3 years of Obama, people are on the lookout for someone who knows his way around without a map.
Not a fortunate son pol who had a “Hello My Name Is ___ Vote for Romney” sticker on his diaper and the royal birthmark presidential seal on his rump.
He is algore with half the fat. The first entitlement Newt will eliminate in 2012.
In a two-man face-off, Gingrich defeats Romney 57% to 30%.
Wow.
Interesting. If everyone else drops out, Gingrich adds 12% and Romney picks up 7%. Those not already supporting one of the two are twice as likely to follow Newt as Mitt. In other words, those who don't already tolerate Romney because he's "inevitable" are not terribly interested in supporting him eventually.
“Gingrich defeats Romney 57% to 30%.”
Did you hear that? I did.... there it goes again... and another. There goes another.... 5 all at once.
Wow, anti-Newt FReeper’s heads are exploding everywhere. There goes another one. LOL
Go Newt Go......
Yeah, right.... Are we supposed to believe that over 70% of conservatives are supporting Obamacare, amnesty, gun-grabbing crony-capitalism, etc? That’s absurd, just like this poll.
Our rino beats your rino
This kind of “lead” makes me uneasy but we’re better off without Romney no matter what our “betters” in the northeast establishment try to tell us.
This is heartening.
Not long ago I was denegrating Romney to otherwise conservatives when it appeared Romney was inevitable. There's no reason we have to accept a RINO again.
We suffered through Dole-McCain.
We deserve better, or at least more conservative.
Newt leads among the “very conservative” 3 to 1. It is becoming clear that the posters on here dumping on Newt day after day are not what they claim they are, and may be agents for other interests trying to sabotage his candidacy.
Lots of old people in Florida. Old people that remember when we had a great country (pre-1992).
This does not bode well for America. The Republican Party is no longer the conservative party.
Oh come on Republicans. I really want to vote in the general.....Bachmann/Santorum 2012.
I'm not sure what's more amazing to me, that Republicans are prepared to make Newt Gingrich their 'conservative' standard bearer (if Gingrich is a conservative, than so is Romney), or that they'll do so knowing that Obama will win if they do. If this is just about not settling this time, and going over the cliff with the conservative flag flying, why not just go with Bachmann, or Santorum, who are clearly more conservative? Gingrich is neither conservative nor electable in my estimation. If you want a conservative plain and simple, go with Bachmann or Santorum, if you want to win, go with Romney...Gingrich in so many ways is the worst of both. Puzzling to me...
bump!
And after the debate this Saturday...Newt’s numbers should go up even more.
ABC News’ Republican presidential candidate debate in Iowa with ABC5/WOI-DT and the Republican Party of Iowa will take place on Saturday 10th December 2011.
This debate, to be moderated by ABC News anchors Diane Sawyer and George Stephanopoulos, will be held at a critical moment in the Republican nomination process - less than a month before the state’s “first-in-the-nation” caucuses.
The debate will air in primetime from 9:00-11:00 p.m., ET/PT nationally on the ABC Television Network, locally on ABC5/WOI-DT, and will air on ABCNews.com and Yahoo.com. It will be the only broadcast network debate in primetime before the caucuses. ABC News will re-air an excerpted version of the debate the following Sunday morning on “This Week with Christiane Amanpour.”
The candidates will be asked about the critical issues the country faces in front of a live audience on the campus of Drake University in Des Moines. The debate was initially announced on March 24.
Iowa and New Hampshire have long been make-or-break contests for candidates, and ABC News will be putting the crucial questions of the day to the contenders in both key states during two primetime debates. ABC News previously announced it will host a primetime debate in New Hampshire the Saturday before the Granite State’s “first in the nation” primary.
Next debate is Dec 10?
But Newt has momentum like no other candidate so far. He's crushing 'em.
I say it's very, very likely Gingrich will be the nominee. If he should stumble...say or do something completely idiotic...it will be Romney.
Or even Paul.
But the others are totally and completely out of the hunt.
McNewt in the lead? Looks like a repeat of 2008.
