Any win within 5 points either way keeps the battle moving forward. Santorum’s money should start drying up pretty soon regardless of what happens.
An over 5 point win will add some momentum to whoever gets it.
It will take a 10 point win to be fatal to either at this point.

A new InsiderAdvantage poll conducted Sunday night of likely Republican voters in the state of Florida shows a significant surge for former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.
The poll has former Massachusetts Gov. 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.”

I hope enough Santorum supporters will read the writing on the wall and realize all they are doing by voting Rick in FL is to ensure a Romney win. But if enough Santorum supporters would get behind Newt, we could stop Mitt!
