If it’s really that close... Gingrich wins, because the average voting age in the Iowa caucus is like 65 or something like that, and Gingrich gets most of his support from the elderly.
Well, the race is on and here comes Santorum
Up the backstretch
Newts a-going to the inside
Michelle is holding back
And tryin’ not to fall
Huntsman’s out of the running
Perry’s scratched for another’s sake
The race is on and it looks like Romney
And the winner loses all
Dec. 18? This is ancient history.
lol
even when they added 30% independents and Democrats to the mix they still could only make it basically even.
Go Gingrich!
>>If it’s really that close... Gingrich wins, because the average voting age in the Iowa caucus is like 65 or something like that, and Gingrich gets most of his support from the elderly.
I read the poll that in the age group 65+, it is 28.3% Romney, 13.4% Gingrich. Am I missing something?
looks like this is coming down to the wire
If Newt pulls this off next Tuesday it will be hugh, and possible vey series for Romney. Like getting bitten by a moose.
For example, according to Insider Advantage Santorum has gone from 7% to 3% to 13%, Romney has gone from 12(!)% to 18% to 17%, Perry has gone from 13% to 16% to 11%...
Polling results shouldn't be perfectly smooth, considering the margin of error, but those results are a bit too jumpy for my taste.
Regardless, the overall message from this and other polls is that Santorum is rising while other candidates are relatively stagnant.
Almost 33% of INDEPENDENTS are voting for Paul.
I wonder what types of voters can be found in this group recently in Iowa???
um..
The Poll is from yesterday, the 28th.
And bong tokers. Althought admittedly you already said "Dems," so I guess I'm being redundant.
Paul is going to disappoint and come Super Tuesday the only candidate Virginians will get to vote for is Mitt Romney.
That is messed up.
in 2008 only 15% of the voters in the Iowa Republican primary weren’t republican, yet this poll is estimating 30% this time...
that was done on purpose to make Paul and Romney numbers look better.
Couldn't they do a write-in campaign for Newt or another candidate?
There are also many leaving the Democrat Party and registering as Independents.
The conservative vote is split 3 1/2 ways ( I don't think Newt takes 100% of the conservative vote).
It's coming down to Caucus night for sure. Pray that the speakers for Perry have power with God, with men and that we prevail and that we speak boldly as we ought.
Write-in ballots are prohibited by law in the Old Dominion.
