well, good evening, ed. i think the surge is for real. newt gingrich needed two things in order to win south carolina. he needed money and he needed debates and he got both of them. he obviously got the $5 million contribution and also got two debates in one week and if there is one candidate that benefits from two debates in one week it s not rick perry, it s newt gingrich. he had a great debate on monday night, was full of hateful and insulting rhetoric toward poor people, which south carolina republicans love. mitt romney had a terrible debate. i think he s got momentum. gingrich believes his momentum is coming out of this tuesday debate you re talking about, the exchange between juan williams and newt gingrich came up in a town hall today. let s go to that, here it is. i would like to thank you, mr. speaker, for putting mr. juan williams in his place the other night. what about that tyler, did he knock it out of the park with these red neck voters in south
eddie murphy movie the distinguished gentleman they said if you have the right name id and say you re the other candidate you can wins a him, one who had passed away. herman cain shows he s not serious since he s playing along. you never know, if stephen colbert could finish ahead of rick perry. it s not unheard of. maybe you should throw your hat in the ring, ed, jon huntsman s name is up for grabs. here is what mitt romney had to say about coordinating with the super pac last month. i m not allowed to communicate with the super pac. you re not coordinating. my goodness if we coordinate in any way whatsoever we go to the big house. colbert and stewart proved how easy it is to not coordinate last night. i can t tell you, but i can tell everyone through television, and if you happen to be watching, well, i can t prevent that, jon.
explaining the situation to voters. there is one name on the ballot that stands for true americanism, herman cain. americans for a better tomorrow tomorrow more believes a vote for herman cain is a vote for america. on january 21st vote for herman cain. lets get insight from ari melber and krystal ball. the polls show obama at 41%, romney at 38%. this is ppp poll. colbert at 13%. will this alter the outcome, ari, on saturday in south carolina? he could take a bite out of it.
day. his rating is starting to take a dive. he has an unfavorable rating of 53% in a new ppp poll. 33% of americans say they look at romney favorably. romney, this guy, he s got ice in his veins. he can t relate to the middle class in any way, shape or form. the money he makes in speaking fees is a life-changing number. what would you do with $375,000? in south carolina alone the median income is over $42,000. but that 375 is really not that much. mitt romney doesn t relate to the plight of every day working folks because he hasn t had a job in five years. even chris christie knows this. it doesn t come as any shock because the guy hasn t been having a job where he has been getting income over the last number of years and so he has been getting money from
when dredge reported, i think also nbc, had this story about a girl named monica lewinsky the president might have been having an affair with, a young woman i should say, there was a big debate whether to run it now it s going inside abc. if this comes out, this could tube the gingrich candidacy. in south carolina today, people don t like romney even though he won the first two primaries, sort of one in iowa. looking for somebody else. and newt is a bomb-thrower, the one that throws the red meat, they like newt and want to give newt one last chance. he may not win, but he s going to go down fighting and is giving romney the run of his life which is why romney sent his people in here today to move around and trash newt gingrich. interesting, for a guy, tyler jones, not the front-runner, newt gingrich is certainly acting like it. what do you make of his move in south carolina? cutting this lead by mitt romney
