Goes to show you that Iowa and NH should be dead last in 2016.

South Carolina's Republican voters set a new primary turnout record Saturday when more than 600,000 of them went to the polls, shattering the previous mark set in 2000.

Is there anybody who doesn’t want to watch Newt and Obama in three debates...?

...Besides Obama?

Just like that, the Republican presidential race feels changed. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich didn’t just win in South Carolina, he won everywhere across the state.

Looking at the results through Patchwork Nation’s demographic/geographic breakdown, Mr. Gingrich could not have done much better.

Gingrich Won on Electability: Exit Polls

NO NO NO NO...these facts do not fit the MSM and Republican Olde Guard Narrative about Newt. He is NOT electable, so all these people they polled must be WRONG! Don't you know? Only Mittens is "electable".

Newt Gingrich has his political deficits but he also has a ‘fire in the belly’ attitude of wanting to take on and beat Obama then get our country back on track. S.C. primary voters saw that - and liked it. Romney comes across as no more passionate than he has to be. His CEO look and mannerisms don’t impress voters. Newt is not my absolute favorite candidate but because Sarah Palin isn’t running, Cain and Bachmann have dropped out and Santorum can’t get traction, I’ll take Newt over Romney, any day.

WSJ must not have gotten the memo from the GOP elites that Romney is the ONLY Republican that is electable, no matter what the voters say!!!!

Romney’s house of cards is collapsing faster than MF Global.

"About one-third of voters in each of the other two early states told pollsters that the ability to defeat Mr. Obama was the most important candidate quality."

You have to be willing to fight, to win!

Electability? Ann Coulter said he won because of his snotty comments.

Romney has at least 3 taxpayer-funded “Solyndra’s” in his MA Governor closet:

Romney’s Energy-Project Past

http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith//1011/Romneys_energyproject_past.html?showall

“...And so while Romney has criticized Solyndra on the campaign trail as a major failure of the Obama administration, his Green Energy Fund invested in several companies that have failed or not lived up to expectations...”

I just hope someone sticks this up Bill O’Reilly’s azz, after he scoffed at the possibility of a double digit victory by Newt. “It’s gonna be close”, bloviated, the pinhead BOR...

Dick Morris and Rove (that magnificent a-hole) will have some egg on their faces too.

Newt’s best chance is to stand up for freedom, conservative principles, and make war on the elites of the media and ruling class (regardless of party).

The majority of Santorum voters would vote for Gingrich over Romney so the victory would have been more lopsided if Santorum wasn’t there.

He’s not electable. His hair’s white. Even Ronald Reagan had enough sense to dye his hair. How can you trust a man who’s dumb enough to show his true age?
