What’s exactly what I mean. Wondered how much Romney had to pay ARG for them to produce this result.
The second Ras poll you link was gathered on Monday, prior to the debate.
With all due respect to your stunning insight, do you honestly believe Gingrich did so bad (or Romney so good) in Monday’s debate to change the numbers to anywhere near this extent?
“HELLO KITTY, MEOW!”
Don’t be ridiculous. Newt is just a man. If he is messing up he needs to be called on it.
The sad fact is, that in Today’s America, a very large number of Sheeple will do EXACTLY what the Magic Talking Box they spend hours staring at tells them to do.
If it tells them to buy Coke over Pepsi, they buy coke.
If it tells them to buy the latest book Oprah pimps, they buy the book.
If it tells them they should HATE someone, they hate that person.
Remember how it was that Obama defeated the media hero Hillary in the first place?
As for the debate, I was concerned that Newt got a beat down from Romney and didn't adequately respond, partly due to Williams and partly due to Newt losing focus. Hopefully he will bounce back tomorrow night.
I agree. I think it was last night that one of the network news programs opened with, “...Romney payed 15% tax rate compared to Obama’s 25% tax rate...”
The first thing that came to my mind was...”Geeze, Obama doesn’t manage his own finances any better than he manages the country’s.”
I'm not the Freeper you were asking, but i too think that could be the case. In totality, maybe the debate was a wash but my guess is that the part which stood out to most was Romney hitting Gingrich hard on possible influence peddling. Gingrich didn't answer it particularly well and it came early in a debate that started at 9 pm here in Florida (except for the panhandle which is in CST). So a lot of people may have turned it off at 9:30 to get ready for bed, leaving them with the impression that Romney scored some significant blows on Gingrich. Furthermore, adding in the anti-Newt media (including Fox News which has quite a few Republican viewers) and having Rubio coming out defending Romney and going after Newt doesn't help much either.
In any event, i think Gingrich will need to return to form in the next debate or else i fear Romney could pull out a victory here.
Gingrich needs to take Florida...there are no proportionate distro of delegates.. it’s winner-take-all.
