The New Delegate Leader: Newt Gingrich

Newt Gingrich will win the 11 statewide delegates and two each from the five congressional districts he appears to be winning handily.

(The results by county can be found here; the new U.S. House district map can be found here.)

There are two patches where Romney is doing well; most of the map is Gingrich territory.

Worst-case scenario for Gingrich is he wins 21 delegates and Romney wins 4 delegates. The best-case scenario is that he wins all 25.

UPDATE: It now appears that Gingrich will sweep all seven of South Carolina’s congressional districts, putting all 25 at stake tonight into his pile.

External Link  How did Newt win and Romney lose: Newt is a better campaigner and is the one who showed he was ready to fight with Barack Obama.

Regardless of the type of man that Newt Gingrich is today, the kind of man that President Obama and the MSM will be able to successfully create in the minds of independent voters will guarantee four more years of the most destructive administration in my lifetime.

The 'debates' will be controlled and, contrary to Newt's assertions, the physical imagery will starkly favor President Obama.

The election won't be close. The President will win with a wider margin than against Senator McCain.
