Although a longer contest would result in the strengthening of the republican party as the whole nation would come to vote on the two, the party would be more likely to obtain American voters with Mitt Romney as their candidate.APrichardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08007880924593667034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27559829.post-77651328319801940482012-01-31T18:42:11.683-06:002012-01-31T18:42:11.683-06:00I am kind of hoping that either Romney pulls away ...I am kind of hoping that either Romney pulls away and gets this whole thing over with OR Ron Paul comes out of nowhere and takes Florida by storm boosting him to a very competitive second seed with Gingrich.

I agree with Sen.

Gingrich is good in debates, but he has skeletons in his closet. Romney is good with the economy, but has a hard time relating to the people, Paul relates with the people, but doesnt have the "smartest" political ideas. I dont think that it matters who wins Florida. Regardless of the outcome I believe Obama will be re-elected for another term.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27559829.post-45472973841339209572012-01-29T23:46:23.586-06:002012-01-29T23:46:23.586-06:00I would like to have a tie between them.

If one of them (as a result of recent polls probably Romney) would win Florida by a huge lead that one will probably win the nominee for the GOP. Santorum and Paul have no chance because Santorum has not enough experience and can't control himself well enough. Paul is to old and is in my opinion too progressive for the GOP. Therefore the Florida primary will give one of the a good lead over the ther one.JakobLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12372335117801234636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27559829.post-44400278320878207452012-01-29T22:35:47.678-06:002012-01-29T22:35:47.678-06:00I personally would not neither of them to win, bec...I personally would not neither of them to win, becasue i want Paul win, but it's sad that he is too old to be a president.

He also has the best potential for beating President Obama if he wins the Republican nomination. I really do not want the contest to go on longer because I think that Newt only gained temporary sympathy votes when attacked by the media, which put him ahead and now he is struggling and fighting to stay ahead but Romney is too strong and will win in the end so there is no point in dragging it on longer.KKoteckihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11355446153013123298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27559829.post-75406635496813751812012-01-29T19:33:44.821-06:002012-01-29T19:33:44.821-06:00I don't want either of them to win.

I do think that the contest has dragged on for too long and I feel that Republican should pick a candidate soon, and focus on the issues that America is presently faced with.Jwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00879052308381951601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27559829.post-22086222523644645922012-01-29T19:03:20.002-06:002012-01-29T19:03:20.002-06:00I would want neither one of them to win, change th...I would want neither one of them to win, change things up a bit. Maybe Ron Paul take a win. And i would really like this contest to go on for as long as it can, so there is no true "winner" until the very end.J.Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16487651997692284376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27559829.post-67063905318921956232012-01-29T19:01:58.933-06:002012-01-29T19:01:58.933-06:00In my opinion, I do not have a preference on who w...In my opinion, I do not have a preference on who wins Florida, but I would like it to be a close finish. After checking the results, it seems as though Romney smoked Gingrich. Furthermore, political scientists argue that Newt Gingrich's poor performance is due to the lack of female supporters. To me, this is intresting and I am excited to find out the reasons as to why Newt lacks female representation.ANicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04447329931797475785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27559829.post-49020218032740575032012-01-29T18:41:13.161-06:002012-01-29T18:41:13.161-06:00I don't really like either of them.

I think that Romney has the best potential to instill a change in the country and I don’t believe that Gingrich really has anything to offer to the American people. This race has really been dragged on for too long in my opinion, and I believe that Romney will pull so far ahead after winning Florida that it will be unattainable for anyone to overthrow him.Sfrasherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01838258536319121287noreply@blogger.com
