“And they also want to show Santorom as the challenger to Romney, knowing damn well Santorum has no way to beat Romney. He has no organization and no money”
Which is why they managed to convince 30k Iowans that Santorum was their man?
Seems clear as day to me. Once people sat down and looked at things, they decided that Santorum was the best conservative out there.
SC is not NH. Santorum draws from the conservatives. It stands to reason if he’s drawing the conservatives in Iowa, that he would do the same in South Carolina.
And this seems to be the case so far. Santorum jumped from nothing to around 25 percent, and that shift is going to come almost solely out of Gingrich support. A 25 point shift in Iowa is likely to be seen also in South Carolina.
And I repeat myself.
Romney has a 30 point lead in NH and has for months, same way with Gingrich in SC. Are we to believe that if Newt has won Iowa he would now be leading Romney by 20 points in NH!
