Every credible poll shows SC is a two-man race between Gingrich and Romney, with Santorum a distant third or fourth:

Santorum trails Newt by ten points in SC. 24% to 14%.

I wonder which cabinet position he wants. Interior would help Utah.

[AmericanInTokyo]

As the man leaves, let us pause to give him some appropriate send-off music....

起来，饥寒交迫的奴隶， 起来，全世界受苦的人！ 满腔的热血已经沸腾， 要为真理而斗争！ 旧世界打个落花流水， 奴隶们起来起来！ 不要说我们一无所有， 我们要做天下的主人！ 这是最后的斗争， 团结起来到明天， 英特纳雄耐尔 就一定要实现。

That was an internet poll. That’s why RealClear Politics will not list it. It’s not scientific.

[muawiyah]

Why would others particularly care which candidate's South Carolina gravitates to?

I mean, like over 60% of SC's population lives in trailers ~ not that there's anything with trailers ~ but they are far from a leadership position in anything these days.

[TitansAFC]

That’s not a real poll.

It was an online poll where you could vote repeatedly, and it contained only 40% self-identified Republicans.

[Cato in PA]

It’s simply stunning that conservatives would both fail to
nominate an outstanding candidate AND repeat the same mistakes as ‘08 almost verbatim. It’s simply stunning.

I just don’t get the Rick Perry supporters. Do they seriously think that he can win when he’s been in single digits for weeks? Do they think he’ll have some miraculous last-minute surge when none of the circumstances that led to Santorum’s victory in Iowa are present?

Part of the solution to our problem is calling on candidates to do the right thing and drop out for the good of the country. The other part is YOU (I say that in a general sense) doing what’s right for America by not being an enabler to a failed candidacy.

If we end up with Willard Romney the open socialist, the Santorum and Perry supporters will only have themselves to blame.
