Why did you pick that one instead of Rassmussen's last poll before the primary? Rassmussen on January 19 (two days before the South Carolina Primary) had Gingrich up two points.

All the polls had Gingrich up in their last polling 1-2 days before the South Carolina Primary - what happened that week is a lot of people were literally changing their minds; the polls were accurate but because they are released after the sample time they were lagging a bit.

In this case you have numerous legitimate polls trending towards Romney, with him having a large lead well above margins of error, and the election is too soon for that to start going the other way (short of Romney being arrested for molesting a nun or something tomorrow).

Thanx tomkat that I will hang my hat on until the real poll happens. I would really have liked to see Rick Santorum win, sigh. I now question his motives going forward if he hangs on to his losing hand too much longer. I have decided like others here to not vote for Mitt Romney. Bottom line is we Christian conservatives no longer have a party and the system in Washington corrupts so easily and thoroughly the “good” people we send there. Therefore...my hopes reside elsewhere, more strongly than ever even for this world specifically the good ol’ USA.

Only the Lord can save us now.
