MURDER, POLITICS, AND THE END OF THE JAZZ AGE
by Michael Wolraich
Newt continues to show his plummet has ended and is leveling out with a quarter of the support. Mitt takes another uptick, narrowing the gap between him and Newt to 3, yet has yet to get back to his recent high point of 25 back in early December. Will Newt's latest blunder in Virginia begin to chisel away at his support? Now that the sprint to the Iowa finish line has begun, will the stump speeches ignite the tea party support for him? And will more exposure to Mitt begin to undermine his current showing of a mini-surge? And what about Paul, who dipped a percentage point to 12? Will an Iowa win and strong showing in NH make him an actual force to be reckoned with?
