Newt’s Big Win In SC!
As I expected, Newt must have just walloped Romney in SC. Fox News called it before 1% of the vote was in and based on exit polls only. The exit polls must be so one sided to be amazing given the way the media is reacting. The talking heads are acting as if Romney’s candidacy is just about toast.
Update: CNN is now acting as if Romeny might lose FL. The talk across the dial is this was devastating loss for Roomney.
Update: Krauthammer notes that 2/3rds of the voters decided this week and went with Newt. Can’t wait to see the final tally. It really is becoming anyone but Romney and Obama.
Update: Exit Poll data here, and a big hat tip to Hot Air. Romney’s ‘concession’ speech is a real snorer….
He’s boring his own supporters in his own campaign room.

dhunter,
Sadly this race cannot come down to who wins in VA. Only Romney and Paul are on the ballot due to missed deadlines by other candidates.
