    Has been hammered by robocalls in the last three days, about his spending, labor support, and other activities while in DC. So no.

    He has answered those attacks. His support is real. I cannot predict the undecided though and it is a significant percentage.

    expect Santorum to come out on top in Iowa tonight. The Iowa Caucus is little more than a Straw Poll and we all know what happens in straw polls.

    Romney has a lot of carry-over from 2008 but his numbers have been stagnant.

    It could happen depending on how convincing the Santorum speakers are at the caucus in persuading the not-Romney and not-Paul voters to get behind Rick.

    I am predicting Paul – Romney – Santorum and all very close with a wide margin separating the rest of the field.

    Will be duking it out for 3rd, and if turn out is high enough Paul too. Perry will not be far behind those 3.

  • freemanja1991

    These attack against him will knock him down and some aren’t that defensible.

  • onenationundergod

    I don’t think it will hurt him much. I see gingrich continuing to fall and Perry rising. Perry has terrific help on the ground.

  • freemanja1991

    like people think. He is very resilient and hard to vote against once meeting him and talking to him.
