We have 24 days until Super Tuesday. And we have seen in this race how opinions can shift on a dime. Millions of dollars in negative ads, poor or outstanding debate performances, so many things shift people's opinions. Why is that? Each candidate has a committed base of support. The rest of the electorate are shifting back and forth because they are desperate to have Obama gone and they are vacillating on which one will be the right one to do it. I would love to see if the polls asked how committed they were to their choice.
I have posted this before and I will keep posting it. We have a LONG way to go. Info from Real Clear Politics:
Raw vote totals:
Romney- 1,119,298; Gingrich- 838,352; Santorum- 430,787; Paul- 305,840
Delegate count right now:
Romney-90, 17 of those are non-binding
Santorum- 44, 41 of those are non-binding
Gingrich- 32, 3 of those are non-binding
Paul- 13, 5 of those are non-binding
Total Delegate count needed to win- 1144
Well Willard will now turn the slime machine on Santorum so Newt will have a chance to recover. He should do well on Super Tues and he is campaigning hard in Ohio. That would be a big win for him.
