On Newt's Win

Checking out a few stories about the S. Carolina primary yesterday:
  1. The results at one of my favorite stops on the web, Legal Insurrection.  Newt did better than Romney amongst women.  Poll: Should Santorum drop out?
  2. Red State on what his victory means.  I hope it means that Gingrich will go all the way and govern the same way that he is promising to.
  3. Wishful thinking?  South Carolina 2012 is to Newt as New Hampshire 2000 Was to McCain?  They're hoping Florida blunts Newt's momentum from the victory in S. Carolina.  Mitt doesn't have staying power.  He's going down.  Money won't matter.  It didn't help Phil Gramm in 1996.
  4. Gingrich Tells South Carolina Man He’d Talk to Al Sharpton  I get the impression that he isn't the least bit intimidated.  Could Romney match this?  Lol.
  5. Romney surrogate says Gingrich could cost GOP control of Congress - The Hill's Ballot Box  Comment:  Anybody who supports Romney has defective judgment.  Sorry, Romney just isn't a sincere and candid man.  And that's being charitable.
  6. Update:  Psst: Hear the Roar and Pay Attention
Too early to predict who will win the nomination.  But not to early to predict that Romney will not be the next president.  Update:  Unless he does this (watch all of it).
