I sure hope you’re right, Iowa, about a 1-2 of Iowa/NH not being the ballgame for Romney.
I place a lot of weight on the media’s ability to shape the sheeple.
They will crown him, and then promote him through the remainder of the primaries until it’s sewn up.
Then they’ll begin the attack on his Mormonism, his bankrupting companies, his flip-flopping, and his RomneyCare versus Zero’s ObamaCare.
The L.A. Times already started in on the Mormon/Romney angle last week. What I find interesting about this latest Iowa poll is that Iowans may have tired of anti-Mormon bigotry, which as you may recall, Huckabee used to his advantage in 2008.
Bain and Romney did not bankrupt any companies. Newt was outright wrong in making that accusation, and that is one of the reasons his numbers are falling.
I think the Democrat crossovers, as stated by iowamark, are the ones who account for Wrong Paul's numbers. It is the reverse of the same hanky-panky pulled off by Republicans who crossed over and voted for Obama in 2008 primaries, to stop a Hillary nomination.
