An Ipsos poll, commissioned by the Left leaning Reuters, shows
Romney with 37% of the South Carolinian vote, Ron Paul and Rick Santorum
tied for second at 16% and Gingrich with 12%.
Before this poll
was taken, Gingrich was running a strong 2nd, but his anti-capitalism
rant against Romney has taken him completely out of contention.
This poll was
posted on Saturday around 6:30 est, after the Huckabee forum.
The South Carolina primary vote is on the 24th, a week and a half
from now.
I say
"finally" in my headline, but, of course, Romney won New
Hampshire with nearly 40% of that vote. Another similar victory, in South
Carolina, would put him very much in the drivers seat. It is time
for the Governor to start talking about a VP choice.
I have reason to
believe that he is looking at Kelly Ayotte, a first term US Senator from New
Hampshire and a TEA party candidate in 2010.
