He has a bit of an establishment nature to him, but he’s still conservative. Not perfect, but nobody is. He’s still more conservative than McCain and probably Bush.

Not enough to overcome the lead he has here. While cross voting does have an impact, it wasn’t enough in Iowa to change the impact. At most, it was enough to bring Paul up a lot.

But with this lead, not enough to keep Newt from winning.

Crossovers will vote for Paul, not Romney.

Thanks for the votes and the news, any feel for how family, friends and neighbors are going to vote?

Most of the rural area signs were for Perry so I'm guessing they'll switch to Newt. Our biggest worry, like most States are the city's filled with liberals from up north and the fact that we are an open primary.

Two solid, decent family men will be defeated today by a serial adulterer and hypocrite. Welcome to the new GOP/Conservative movement.

Because he is and always has been a TRUE Conservative and has advanced the “Conservative Agenda” and if you’ve been keeping up you really know the answers to your questions, some just don’t hear or want to hear, just enjoy the soundbite of asking the question.

“Romney has not made any committment to debate in Fla. The kitchen must be red hot.”

Yeh, the heat after a Newtron bomb is worse than mere kitchen heat. LOL.

“Very impressive comeback at the last minute even with the allegations.”

Ha Ha. Newt is the “COME BACK GRANDPA”.

He rose from the ashes of the fire that caused him to leave congress.

His staff, quit and his campaign was on life support. He clawed his way back to first in the polls in Iowa.

Romney's negative ads in Iowa knocked him into Intensive Care, and now he's back again.

If this was a Democrat, you'd be hearing the “comeback” story non-stop.

Newt - The COMEBACK GRAND DAD will probably win the battle in S. Carolina. What will the Romney and Obama stormtroopers do next to knock out Newt? Stay tuned for Florida. This war is NOT over yet. LOL.
