Mitt Romney has apparently decided that his lead in New Hampshire is large enough that he can afford to sit on it and campaign in South Carolina instead. The former Massachusetts governor has held relatively few events in the state since his narrow Iowa win. That neglect is beginning to cost him.

The latest Suffolk University tracking poll, has him falling to 35% support, the fourth straight day he has slipped. Romney was 43% as recently as Tuesday.

“Looks like New Hampshire has a brain problem. Romney is a smaller version of King Obama. Wake up if it is possible.”

The problem New Hampshire has is having a common border with Taxachusetts. The infection that we have in California courtesy of the “migration” of liberal morons from the East Coast has happened much quicker there as those same kind people have moved to to New Hampshire to get away from what they’ve already hatched in MA. It’s like farm animals not wanting to keep living where they’ve defecated.

One of those problems is the open primary. There’s no competition on the Demonrat side, so Demons will be voting for the weakest, most liberal Republicans.
