i'd be cautious about writing off the guy with the most money and best organization.
i get that gingrich has momentum but he doesn't have a lot of feet on the ground. he's trying to build an organization now. three weeks before iowa.
romney has staying power. he can take losses in the early states (although florida would be a serious problem) and still move on. gingrich is walking a knifes edge where any shift in the wind guts his fundraising.
but we're talking about a party that at state levels has made some insane candidate choices. if newt can avoid being newt for a few months, who knows?
as someone who'll vote for obama, i'm rooting for the guy. he polls a lot worse than romney with independants.
