When Gingrich ignited the electorate in the debate before the SC vote, the energy was palpable. They’d seen how Mitt had campaigned with negative ads in Iowa and were fired-up to give Newt their nod with their vote.
Then Romney’s team saw they had to “kill” Newt with an overwhelming barrage of negative ads ($20Million in a 10 day blitz in FA alone) - lies and distortions. Yet Newt still came in 2nd and took a majority of districts (but none of the delegates because the FL GOP is not playing by the rules that say, they would give del proportionally, if they held their primary before March 1).
Then the MSM (inc Fox!) took over and started the beat-down followed by the black-out of Newt’s campaign. But through sheer ability and with a clearly articulated conservative message Newt has remained in the news, discussed by Obama and Axerold because he’s hitting them where they live.
I know. And it just makes me sick. :-) But I am in to the end. When they get to Texas, I will be working hard for him.
He would have won the in person Texas straw poll if the Paultards hadn’t blown it out. They completely fried the text poll. I believe he will at least have a strong showing here & may win it outright.
:-) Stay cheerful & resolute!
