Newt just raised several million on his west coast swing and now this megamillion injection will boost his chances on taking a lion's share of delegates on Super Tueday.

Down the stretch, Newt will rocket past Limousine Liberal Romney.

Too bad he didn’t have this cash infusion during Florida. We could be looking at a far different race right now. I hope Newt’s S-PAC can put it to good use and finally eliminate Romney.

Sheldon Adelson is supposed to be the world’s richest Jew.

And if the rumors are correct, Romney is running short of cash.

Hammer time!

This is probably GOOD news for the Romney Campaign. Santorum had all the momentum and was threatening Romney everywhere. If Newt gets this money it can only serve to hurt Santorum and divide the anti-Romney vote.

Now what payback does he want? I like my candidates broke and without chains. That way they will represent me.

In some of the polls on the Real Clear Politics website Rick Santorum is moving up in some of the polls in Georgia.

2012 Delegate Tracker
Romney 123
Santorum 72
Gingrich 32
Paul 19
Huntsman (out) 2

1,144 needed - source: WSJ

(Anybody but Mittens, for sure, (well, not Paul) but right now the delegate numbers and the momentum favor Santorum - until the Drive-Bys launch on him I’m sure)

Since this contrasts with previous reports that Adelson wasn’t planning further donations to the SuperPAC, what changed?

Sequence of events:

• Adelson sees Newt falling in polls after FL.

• Newt delivers barnburner speech at CPAC

• MSM reports Adelson cuts funding

• Individual Newt donations skyrocket

• Adelson gets back in game

This is how I see it

This is good news for America. This increases the chances that all will remain in the race and that a brokered convention looks a little more possible. I am with Newt all the way and I won’t change with the wind. I would like it to get to the convention though just to see if anyone else would step up to the plate. In my heart, I know that Gingrich is the best of whats left and that he would give his all to do the right things for America.

Has anyone else received Freepmail from a “Donald Duk” trashing Newt? I checked for posting history; there is none. Just wondering if this kind of thing is ignored or if the Mods prefer to be notified.
