Romney’s divide and conquer strategy working?
If Paul’s support is the young and new, wonder how that holds up on Jan 3. If it does, and Paul takes Iowa, then that will be a poor reflection on Iowa.
Are people there really that stupid, ignorant, and gullible? What’s occurred there over the last couple of weeks other than millions is negative T.V. ads? What’s it say about an electorate that can be so easily swayed by negative ads?
Well at least not all the support shifted to Paul and Romney. Santorum got a few point uptick.
The debates made a huge difference and for the better. Newt shot to the top but it was based ONLY on his debate performance and he knows it. His whole argument for the nomination is that he can out debate Obama, when he looks less than stellar or whithers under fire, the reason for voting for him drops. Add his baggage coming to the forefront and it rings even truer.
Perry bombed in the early debates but it forced him to adapt and overcome revealing a strength no one has had yet in this race.
Paul may be able to win Iowa but so what? The Caucus is his strength. He wont win any other state so it will be who took 2nd 3rd and 4th going into NH.
By the way,the final polls over the next two weeks will begin to show the real numbers and PPP has been a bad offender inmo. The polls have been pushing an outcome but when the outcome doesn't match reality these polls will have to become more accurate if they want to be believed in SC or Florida.
