Last week, I argued that if Mitt Romney won New Hampshire by less than 10% he would be in deep trouble in South Carolina.
Although Romney has prevailed in the Granite State, with 19% of the precincts reporting, Romney has a 10 point lead over Ron Paul (35% to 25%). Keep in mind that Romney had a 23 point lead over Paul a week ago.
Romney might think now is the time to be fitted for a crown but he hasn’t earned his robes yet.
UPDATE: With 89% of the ballots counted, Romney’s lead over Paul has grown to 16 points earning nearly 40% of the vote. His win is far more convincing. But South Carolina isn’t a fait accompli.

Hello, Romney lovers:
Romney stole IA, bought NH, and will be defeated in SC.
SC is the land of liberty and free-enterprise. No country for "big government liberal RINO" like Romney or Santorum.
We must STOP Romney because:
-pro-abortion
-pro gay marriage
-pro gun control
-RomneyCare
-Supports climate change
And this why Santorum should be defeated in SC:
-opposed "Right to Work" state law, favoring big labor unions over worker' choice
-voted for raising debt celling 8 time
-NCLB
-voted against free trade
We must support Rick Perry. He has southern heritage and conservative credentials to win in SC. Gingrich will be my second choice.
Sean| 1.10.12 @ 8:46PM
Rick Perry is done.
Dai Alanye | 1.11.12 @ 11:24AM
We must back Santorum because:
-pro-life
-opposes gay marriage
-pro 2nd Amendment
-anti RomneyCare
-scoffs at man-made climate change
-has a plan to return manufactruring to the US
-knows the importance of reforming entitlements
-believes in a strong military

With 80% reporting, Aaron, Romney is winning by fifteen. Go back to the spin room and find some less embarrassing comments.
