TAMPA, Fla. Mitt Romney rolled to victory in the Florida primary on Tuesday evening, according to early returns and exit polls, dispatching an insurgent threat from Newt Gingrich and reclaiming his dominant position in the race for the Republican presidential nomination.

If he does leave; it will not beat Romney.Don’t beat up on our own.
The LDS coffers.
Don’t fool yourself. The Jewish areas such as Dade County and Palm Beach may be liberal, but Florida voters are representative of the whole country. Gingrich went down in flames because he ran the campaign without a message, other than the negative ads against Romney. His speech and media bashing were excellent, as usual, but that won’t win him nomination.
I won’t be bullied by FR and will vote for the nominee, whomever that is.
Chet99—a real cool guy.
Yes but they would rather blame one of our own then face the reality. We could go on for hours at how all other good conservative contenders were not good enough because of ONE.Therefore we were left with the bottom of the barrel.
Gingrich ran the only campaign that had a message, but the press was only interested in reporting on the negative ads Romney ran against him and his Super PAC reponse ads.
Gingrich consistently had thousands of people cheering at his campaign stops; Romney was lucky if he could get a couple of hundred people, and in fact the press stopped reporting his appearances live because they were so pathetic.
The imitative, think-in-the-box GOP nomenklatura watched the Democratic fix in ‘08 for Obama, and think they can imitate it. It may work - up to the moment Bishop Willard Hartpence Romney is the nominee and the media swings back to the Democrat default settings. They have already forgotten the model was only partly the fix for Obama, it was also the setup for the dupe McCain.
Wait, so Hillary would've been better?
Mouse over each edition choice, you’ll see that the oldest publication date is 1952 from Crown Publishers.
“I wont be bullied by FR and will vote for the nominee, whomever that is.”
So? You want a biscuit for obedience or what?
I will not vote for a man who believes he will become a god. Tower of Babel comes to mind. I won’t vote for a muslim either. Hopefully by some miracle, in Calif. Gingrich will still be running. If not, it will be the first time I have not voted since the 70’s. God Help Us.
If Santorum did leave, it would beat Romney. If Gingrich left, it might beat Romney. How did I beat Santorum up? I could. Easily. But I have been trying to show respect for people like you.
Gingrich lost outright, so don't blame Santorum.
Well this voter will not vote for Romney, even if I must write in Newt’s name.
Good post, although it’s not what many Freepers want to hear now.
Uh...you and I may see it that way...but the millions of Americans watching American Idol do NOT...
“Newt’s now given the signal for Sanatorium to bow out...prior to Florida Sanatorium said neither Newt nor Romney asked him to stand down....but Newt is doing that now...will he?”
No, he won’t.
“Screw Romney. He aint gettin my vote.”
Sure! Elect the 0.
Thanks
I remember well the forboding sense I had as Obama's compaign picked up momentum....the media, the hype, the utter blindness of the people...it was so hard to watch when we all had the truth nobody cared to fully reveal and vet oBama out..... It's the exact same thing with Romney....it simply isn't going to matter to those who have willingly blinded their eyes....
Wise move for Newt to focus on March...Nevada and Utah are of course in Romney's pocket and Paul will make sure to cover him otherwise as we've seen thus far.
If Romney gets this then the Lord no doubt has determined our country will not be strong again.... so that it cannot intervene with the stage now being set in Europe and the ME....and Romney will usher this nation rapidly into the push for One World Governance, Religious Unity, and we know what the end-result that will bring.
BTTT!
