I knew Newt screwed up when he made those comments attacking Romney. It was a big mistake on Newt’s part. The comments he made sounded like something I’d expect to here form Obama not a Republican candidate. It was so unnecessary for Newt to make those comments. It strayed from his strategy of only criticizing Obama which had been working well for him.

So far, only Rasmussen is reporting this drop. Has anyone else seen any polls that support what Rasmussen is reporting?

Btw, I don’t know how much I’d trust these polls at this point. Non-GOP pollsters will try to make it look like Newt has lost momentum and Romney has gained it.

Amidst all the volatility, Romney's numbers have held steady each month, and Ron Paul has been in double digits each month."

Romney/Paul 2012.

Yeah. Yeah. THAT'S the ticket.

And Iowa is extremely difficult to poll because of that caucus. Remember in 2008, Thompson was leading going in and we all know how that turned out.

Ron Paul’s ad showing Newt on the couch with Nancy must be having an effect

Netwon Leroy Gingrinch is not electable in a national election.

Time to move on to someone who is electable.

I bet Paul places FIRST in Iowa due to committed ground game field folks. It may surprise many...Gringrich peaked to soon it seems...talk about a political earthquake. Like the Buchanan shocks on Bush Senior.

Something in this article doesn’t add up.

“Ten percent of likely caucus-goers said they support some other candidate or are not sure how they will vote.”

“Rasmussen warns that the race remains volatile, with only 40 percent of likely caucus-goers sure of how they will vote.”

10%=40%

These polls and results in Iowa matter not at all. McCain came in 4th in Iowa in ‘08 and Fred Barnes said it was great for McCain. The establishment and the press will say whatever will push their preferred candidate:

Romney wins Iowa: “Great, our guy has momentum”
Romney comes in second: “The winner of Iowa rarely gets the nomination anyway
Romney comes in third: “Great for Romney! Didn’t even campaign there and still came in third”
Romney comes in fourth: see above quote

It’s Romney, Romney, Romney! Attack anybody else. And once Romney is safely nominated, attack, attack, attack Romney.

That screencap must be photoshopped. That isn’t Mitt — or I definitely need new glasses.

Ha ha. Methinks Newt has a glass jaw that negative ads will quickly shatter. Romney is a crappy candidate who would likely loose to Obama, but Gingrich could implode such that it’d be a blowout. At this point, I’m not certain which would be better for the country long term.

This is push poll reporting by desperate faggot RINOS trying to get Mitt traction.

Newt will take Iowa by 10 percent.

Another note: It's not winner take all until April.

The POTUS is the bully pulpit. There is NO ONE better than NEWT in articulating the founder's intentions and the conservative philosophy. PERIOD.

My hope is that Newt helps the ignorant, brainwashed masses of asses understand the difference between tyranny and liberty.

If any other candidate gets the nod, the DEMS will have him bent over and lubbed up like Jorge Bush. See Mitt, Perry....etc. Pathetic Rino wannabe conservatives.

I don’t think Newt did anything wrong. He was teh flavor of teh month and his popularity faded.

I can’t predict the future (duh) but last night hearing all the latest I said I think Romney will be the nominee.

I’ve defended every conservative who led this pack (Gingrich, Cain, etc.) but if the voters ultimately decide Romney is most electable I can’t bitch about the process. Heck, half the voters are convinced Gingrich isn’t conservative enough.
