Newt Gingrich’s lack of organization may be his undoing. Although he was the first Republican to declare his presidential candidacy and is well ahead in all the polls, the former Speaker of the House is far behind when it comes to getting people organized on the state level. In fact Gingrich’s organizational problems are so bad that he may not qualify to be on the Ohio ballot.

Mitt Romney, on the other hand, is set up and ready to go in all 50 states. Romney may not be the most popular of the Republican candidates, but he does have the ground team and money to stick around until the end of the GOP primary season, potentially stealing the nomination away from a more popular, but disorganized candidate like Newt Gingrich.

Newt did get on the Ohio ballot along with Perry and Romney. The others did not, but the deadline was already being extended to March so they have more time.

Yes, quite possible. We will know soon.

Romney has been running for 5 years. He would be mega pathetic if he hadn’t managed to get organized. LOL.
