Huge? He's polling at 5%. Every little bit helps I suppose but huge is not the word I'd choose.
That 5% could put Gingrich ahead right before the vote.
The impotance IS huge.
His polling now is relevant, of course, but it’s his reputation that is huge. If you recall, he had something like 41% support on entry.
That is because of his position as a leading Christian conservative governor.
So, Perry is well-liked and he’s a social conservative. That is what’s huge. Additionally, the timing couldn’t be better in terms of the bitter ex-wife dumping her personal puke from Peyton Place all over the country tonight.
