InsiderAdvantage Poll (FL): Gingrich Surging, Race 'Tighter Than Expected'

A new InsiderAdvantage poll conducted Sunday night of likely Republican voters in the state of Florida shows a significant surge for Newt Gingrich.

The poll has Mitt Romney leading with 36 percent of voters, followed by Gingrich at 31 percent.

The Sunday results of 646 likely GOP voters are as follows: Romney 36 percent Gingrich 31 percent Santorum 12 percent Paul 12 percent Other/Undecided 9 percent "The race will be tighter than expected," Matt Towery, chief pollster of InsiderAdvantage told Newsmax.

Towery noted that his poll showed a surge for Romney on Wednesday, with him leading Gingrich by 8 points. The InsiderAdvantage poll was among the first to show Romney's resurgence after his dismal showing in the S. Carolina primary.

The InsiderAdvantage poll was also the first to show Gingrich's rise in S. Carolina and accurately forecast his win there.

"The trend is favoring Gingrich," Towery said, noting that while Romney's lead was still outside the margin of error of 3.8 percent, "It's not by much.".........

the way i see it is this
Romney led from jump st

Newt edged ahead First of December

then the Iowa onslaught took him down

the SC debate and win edged him back up and then almost on top again decisive

then the Romney FOX DRUDGE PUNDITS MEDIA GOP ESTABLISHMENT D-DAY stopped that late week

now his ads etc....are tightening it again....maybe...

if Santorum would fold

or Rush or Levin or Sarah forcefully endorse

it could happen....we shall see

even if Newt gets close its a victory all owed to Sheldon Adelson

I think Romney’s Vapid Response Team is busy on this thread. ;-)

Whoever you were listening to is, at best, full of it! Perhaps wishful thinking by a Mitch Daniels fan? Still lots of them around.

The closes you will find to a SOTU response by a future president is 1968 when a team of Republican Congressmen giving the response included then-TX Congressman GHWB.

Seems you’d have to give Newt at least a little credit....

[greeneyes]

LOL. I wish I could remember the names of the Presidents. It was one of the alphabet channels, though. I just took it as them trying to help set up someone from the establishment.

[Pride in the USA]

The best news tonight! There is still hope for a Gingrich win in Florida. Newt all the way to the White House!!!

[presently no screen name]

But I can’t believe the folks here who are trying to use a personal tragedy in Santorum’s life to help get Newt elected.

Perhaps you misinterpreted what some were saying. It's not about Newt but America - do it for America!

[wardaddy]

i give newt credit for being last man standing viable against the Romney wermacht-gestapo

but without Sheldons 10 million so far.....10 million more pledged
Newt woulda been crushed

I kinda missed your comment. <:

The initial thread last night announcing little Bella’s condition brought out one tasteless comment near the top of the thread. The pile on against it went on all night long and took care of that.

The point is pretty clear that regardless of the child crisis, Santorum is staying in, and regardless of the child crisis, we want him out.

This is great news! I knew I woke up in the middle of the night for good reason! I will be phone banking for the next 2 days for Newt and have my yards signs ready. I vote for Newt Tues. morning and then will come home and make more calls. LET’S DO IT PEOPLE! MAKE IT HAPPEN! WE THE PEOPLE!!!!!

Martha MacCallum is really very good! And has been very fair in regards to Newt.

Martha MacCallum joined FOX News Channel (FNC) in January 2004 and is currently the co-anchor of “America’s Newsroom” alongside Bill Hemmer (9:00-11:00 AM/ET).

I agree. Who do you think they are?

I thought I was the only one who sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night and goes online.

Usually it does seem to be for a reason.

We should start a research project.
