I see that in the side-bar they have both Newt and Mitt matched up against Zero, and trailing by identical 50-48. As Newt will likely motivate more people to vote for him that would seem to argue for his electability (then again, he would likely motivate more people to vote against him as well).

The Gallup poll uses a five-day rolling average:

So, if Gingrich was behind 1 pct yesterday (5 days/-5pts equals -1pt-avg), he must of scored a knockout in last nights pulling (5 days/+20pts equals +4pts avg) to go from -5 to plus 20 in one night.

Newt appears to have outscored Mitt by about +25 points in last nights Gallup polling.

Any math experts on this thread?
