The Florida Primary

Many people are asking whether or not the Florida primary will determine a GOP front-runner. So far, it looks like Romney is in the lead. Since there were three different winners in the three other contests so far, people are hoping Florida will be able to put one of the remaining candidates firmly into the front-runner position. The latest poll that was released showed Romney with a twelve point lead ahead of Newt with Santorum and Paul far behind. The poll showed 51% for Romney and 29% for Gingrich. If Romney does win this primary he will put the nomination firmly in his grip. Gingrich and Santorum won't stop trying to take it from him though. The day before the primary, Romney and Gingrich continued to clash. Over the weekend Gingrich made a vow to take his campaign all the way to the Republican convention. Romney said that this is a sign of his desperation. More people have voted in this primary than have voted in either of the three before this one. Paul and Santorum already know they won't win this primary and have moved on to the next contest. If Newt loses Florida the next few primaries don't look good for him. Tonight we will see the results of the Florida primary.
