I find it hard to comprehend that 43 percent of Georgians are falling for one or more of the faces of that northeastern socialist liberal.

A new poll shows Newt Gingrich maintaining a big lead over his Republican rivals in Georgia with less than a month to go before the state's March 6 presidential primary.
The former House Speaker leads Mitt Romney 43 percent to 29 percent among likely Georgia voters, the poll says. Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum had 12 percent and Texas congressman Ron Paul trailed with 6 percent.
The poll shows Gingrich leading in every region of the state except metro Atlanta, where he and Romney are in a statistical tie.
The poll was conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research Inc. of Washington, D.C. from Monday through Wednesday, and paid for by 13 daily newspapers with readership across Georgia. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

IMO, between the straw, national etc. polls the GOP is really unsettled about whom they want for a candidate. What a mess.
The caucus today, does it mean anything?
Nor Easterner winner would not be a surprise I guess.
I really dislike caucus.
I find it hard to comprehend that 43 percent of Georgians are falling for one or more of the faces of that northeastern socialist liberal.
I find it incredible any a single person falls for Romney.
Only 29 percent are falling for one or more of the noreaster liberal faces.
IMHO, WE'VE BEEN INFILTRATED BIG TIME.
Stick with Newt. We need experience and a big stick to clobber Obama.
I think I read that in the states that Santorum won, you don't register "party".
GA is Newt’s home state. If he can’t win there, he’s should just pack it in. Actually, he should just pack it in anyway. He has almost nil appeal outside the South. Sorry, but it is what it is.
In the words of a GREAT governor....
"Oops" ; )
Thanks for the maintenance call.
No reason to be sorry- you’re absolutely right. If he can’t win the South, he has no base. If he does, however, he’ll have as many delegates, or more, than the other candidates- and with that- status and momentum going forward. .
Las Vegas biggie, bankroller Adelson has dropped Newt like a bad habit!!! Georgia voters. wake up!!! You are wasting your votes on both Romney or Gingrich, both losers!!! Go, Santorum, Go Paul!!!
Paul? Although I agree Paul should go, go far away.
A conservative, moderate and liberal walk into a bar.
The bartender says: "Hi, Mitt!!"
regrettably, I don’t. -;)
Las Vegas biggie, bankroller Adelson has dropped Newt like a bad habit!!!
*****************
That may or may not be so. What bothers me about that story, is that it has only one source, Bloomberg. And, in turn, Bloomberg only bases its information on an “unnamed” source.
Bloomberg is a Romney shill. Now, Adelson may well have decided not to give any more bucks to Newt- but, I’m not going to take Bloomberg’s word for it.
“IMO, between the straw, national etc. polls the GOP is really unsettled about whom they want for a candidate”
...basically, no clear majority wants any of them. This is no different than 2008. Obama is likely to win another 4 years.
Colorado female Newt fan. Several others right here in Denver with me that agree. Hmmmm. Thought I lived in the West.
Paul?
omg
sheltered, myopic, naive
he’s worse than obama excepting fiscal policy
just sayin’
In other news, dog bites man.
