Why? Good for him btw CA is important.

because your favorite isn't leading? Come on Romney isn't the guy everyone thought he'd play out. Gingrich is getting visible and starting lots of talk. He's positioning himself as the conservative choice.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Gingrich is a smart man, and I may entertain voting for him if my choices are limited. I like the fact that he has strong beliefs and can articulately explain them rather than repeating what a teleprompter says.

Teleprompter? If President Obama has any editorial control over the contents of the material on the teleprompter, then it is still he.

That poll isn't credible.  Nothing has changed that would account for Gingrich rising.  I don't think Huckabee's low number is credible either really.

Shouldn't it be expected that Huckabee's would be low considering Palin is taking away quite a few votes from him AND California isn't exactly a stronghold of his.

Gingrich has been added to the map as yellow. Palin is the green, in CO. I am keeping NC for Huck, bc he was leading beofre the two tied polls.

Well, Maybe, just maybe that poll showing Romney up by so much was wrong.. I mean PPP has a very good track record.

I honestly have a hard time believing that someone like Newt Gingrich could be beating Romney in California. If it was Huckabee or Palin, I wouldn't be very suprised. But Gingrich? Really?

and the electoral map was tied when Palin gave her nomination speech...you do realize this is 2 years out and means nothing right?

And CA isn't Romney terrority, since he did so terrible in 08. Seriously...McCain squished him, it was pathetic for even a loser

McCain was the front runner and regarded as more moderate then McCain. And, he didn't really squish him, since Romney was only three-four points behind in the late CA polls. The undecideds broke for McCain.

Your point? I never disputed that McCain won easily, as he should have. And that wasn't "terrible" since McCain was the clear frontrunner after he won Florida. Had Romney won Florida, it would have been closer.

McCain was the frontrunner when he won New Hampshire. Romney was rejected after all his media buys. He lost iowa, he lost New Hampshire and he lost Florida. McCain and Huckabee didn't have the money at the time and overcame on their messages

And also Palin and Huckabee would never win CA. Seriously how is that possible? They are way too far to the right and Palin is a conservative rightie that displays the image of "if you elect me you are screwed" and Huckabee...the guy that gave clemency.....If it isn't Romney it would be Gingrich.

Well, yes, I agree, except with the fact that Newt is just as far to the right as Palin. He's just more articulate and intelligent.

Mitch Daniels or John Thune could carry California in the primary.
