[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry 22:38.  I wish you were right.  I think you give the voters too much intellectual credit. I mean, look how many people have already voted for Newt.  I don't know if it is an intelligence deficiency, hypocrisy, or numbnuts.  But the possibility exist.  [/quote]

I suppose, but the spread between his favorable and unfavorable ratings (27/55) look as bad as Sarah Palin's in the summer of 2011 (24/54), when every pundit declared her goose to be fully cooked.  So what's the difference between these two evaluations?  I guess the most charitable interpretation is that Gingrich is a more talented, knowledgeable individual who, they imagine, might grow on the public if he gains momentum.  On the other hand, the job of the press is not to provide accurate forecasts.  Its job is to follow a story.  And the story right now is Gingrich's rise in the primary race.  So even if some poll says Gingrich is unliked in the general electorate, the story is still that Gingrich's star is rising.[/quote]
