| Gingrich is not dead in water, He will move up with the death of the Santorum Surge and cancer plagueing the Paul surge. Huntsman will make it interesting though. |

Paul has media light now!
He has been avoided for so long, and now boom!
They have to pay attention.
Look.

Santorum beat him though.
Also Santorum didn't get second by media buzz, the media largely disregarded him until caucus day. He got Iowans on his side by visiting every single county and familiarizing himself with the locals so much that at the Caucus he knew many by first name. |

| The media was playing him up in the days prior to the caucus, because he rose 4 points in some poll and the news was like "SANTORUM SURGEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!" |

Is it crazy to think the media creates self fulfilling narratives?
Why did Michele Bachmann gain prominence, but not Thaddeus McCotter? Both are Congressmembers. |
