Gingrich v. Romney: The Florida campaign heats up

January 26, 2012 at 10:35am

What a ride....

Two days ago, Newt Gingrich had an impressive lead in polls in Florida. This morning, according to Real Clear Politics, Romney's ahead in Florida. And he's eating away at Gingrich's brief lead in national polls.

And Romney's lead may get stronger: conservative commentators are going after Gingrich with a vengeance.

Politico is reporting that Ann Coulter and National Review editors have put out scathing attacks on Gingrich, and the Drudge Report is full of quotes from prominent conservative Gingrich critics. Apparently, Politico's Jim Vandehei and Mike Allen write, many conservative leaders and commentators have decided that Gingrich could actually become the Republican nominee, and they think that would be a disaster.

The Florida primary isn't until next Tuesday, so there's plenty of time for pretty much anything to happen. And one thing's obvious: Gingrich isn't going to submit quietly to this onslaught.
