This image was Tweeted out today by PollingReport.com, and I was really struck at what support for Gingrich looks like when you represent it on a fever chart.
See the red line? That’s Gingrich. And it all happened in less than a week.
Just when we’d all been debated to death, all of a sudden a couple of them make all the difference.
OK, maybe it wasn’t entirely the debates — there had been movement along about Jan. 12-13. But most of this was last week.
I don’t know when I’ve seen a surge like that…
That’s just because Fred C. Dobbs isn’t running.
What goes up must come down, unless it achieves escape velocity in which case I hope the martians have better luck with him.
Don’t worry too much about Gingrich. Sooner or later, he will have his Howard Dean “Primal Scream” moment and it will all be over and Romney will walk away with the nomination.
