A quick note to put South Carolina in a little different perspective. Mitt received 20,000 more votes this time than Sen. McCain got in 2008 when he won the state. Also, Mitt is releasing his tax returns on Tuesday.

Mitt was on Huckabee last night as well. Watch the interview here.
UPDATE: Wow! Ahead of tonight’s debate, it looks like the Romney campaign is going to unleash a plethora of concerns about Newt if the following videos are any indication.
A reminder of Newt’s ethic issues:
The latest Florida campaign ad:
GMR is totally steady, disciplined, and confident. Love it.
Christie and Sununu should pair up at major campaign stops to get the mainstream media their facts and cut through their garbage.
I am flummoxed … all the indicia today–Intrade, Rsmussen, Advantage, and so on–show upwards of a 30-point swing toward Newt in FL since last week. What in the world is going on with Mitt’s campaign? This is the kind of result we find on FL’s “doorstep” after Mitt’s team has been beavering away there for at least a month now? This accelerated rate of decline is unprecedented in my experience. Hate to sound like a Cassandra, but if Mitt’s avowed firewall in FL collapses, no amount of advantage on his part in subsequent state races will be enough to stem Newt’s tide. And then, inexorably, we’ll be faced with another four years of Obama’s Marxist-Alinsky experiment of “fundamental transformation.”
For the sake of this and future generations of Americans, Mitt’s team needs to man up, quit being so insufferable polite to his opponents, and throw everything they have into the FL campaign. It’s all-or-nothin’ time, folks!
Mitt Romney for president
Don’t watch and listen people!!!! Get out and support Mitt! Tell others about his opponents’ little flaws, big flaw, and float the future for them if the Newt gets the nomination. Have them check-out, read, buy, re-read Mitt’s book if they have specific questions on any issues…there’s a library close to almost everyone in Florida. I’m disgusted with the inability of people to look to the future. Not listen to the few words which bubble from the birdbath brain of you-know-who. Line up every characteristic of a good president and Romney beats them all… a great speech coach could even the gap on that one issue as well… Smile less Mitt! We know you are a good (no–Great) human being, but this dude needs to be taken down a notch or three. He is not used to getting the recoil back in his face! You can do it!
This is the influence of whatever force has taken over the Tea Party loons mixed with all media slamming Mitt Romney with the most negative coverage any candidate has gotten…Fox News, all left wing news media, Rush Limbaugh, Hannity, Levin, Laura Ingraham, and others. You can’t beat em all with your hand tied behind your back.
Romney gave 15% to charity; Obama 1%…
Biden gave $369…
