Romney Wins Big in Florida Primary, Regaining Momentum
Tuesday, January 31, 2012 at 11:19PM I thought this article was interesting because not only did Mitt Romney win the Florida Republican primary, but he did so after suffering a huge defeat to newt Gingrich in the South Carolina primary. Although now it seems that Romney has the clear momentum running into the next few primaries and is heading in front of all other candidates, the race for the Republican presidential nominee is still in the running. Candidate Gingrich and Santorum are still trying to keep their campaign strong against Romney, and feel that they are the best fit to become the President in 2012. Truly, Mitt Romney's win was impressive after losing South Carolina, winning New Hampshire, and barely beating Santorum in Iowa; however, he is still seen by many as not suitable for office because he is not conservative enough. This leads to the question, which candidate will the Republican party entrust in for the election of 2012? Or will they even decide on one?

Diana: I read this article as well. Its interesting that the Republican candidates all seem to be tearing down each other rather than their Democratic opponent. Romney is the only one who has really focused on doing that, which is probably, in my opinion, what the people are looking for and why he is in the lead so far.
