It just seems that way because the media is refusing to cover him.
s I recall, a few months ago, Gingrich gave a masterful debate performance. Got a standing ovation, and gave the press a beat-down. At the next debate, Gingrich got TWO standing ovations and humiliated the stupid journalist “moderating” the debate on Obama’s behalf.
It was at that point that the media decided it was a two man race: Santorum and Romney. They basically cut off coverage of Gingrich entirely — because he was popular and effective.
Now the media wants people to think that Romney is the only guy in the race.
