Gingrich holds a slight lead over Ron Paul. Newt states specifically how he will improve the country, and his ability to articulate a cogent plan has impressed most of the voters.
Ron Paul's focus on eroding civil liberties, the constitution and reforming the financial system make absolute perfect sense and people respect and want this.
Rick Santorum is coming up in third because he has his principles, follows them and does not waver in his ideals.
Unfortunately for Mitt (Willard) Romney, his flip-flopping, pandering rhetoric and vanilla personality have left him far behind the other candidates.

Now, WTF is wrong with you people and your world?

Interesting that you put three Washington insiders as numbers 1-3 on "your planet." All of those people helped create the mess we're in. The only one that hasn't is Mitt Romney, yet you put him last.

Don't you just love how Newt is trying to portray himself as a "Washington outsider" and make himself the "anti-establishment candidate"? LMAO

But, you're right, Romney is truly a Washington outsider and he's the only one of the candidates who is.

I didn't realize that Ron Paul was an insider and Romney was not part of the Republican establishment. You learn something new every day.
