EASTON, Md., December 17, 2011 — While everyone was seeing Newt as the Gingrich who stole Romney’s Christmas, Santa was making his list and checking it twice. And he decided on a lump of coal for the two serial flip-floppers, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich: Congressman Ron Paul.
[…] Talk about underestimating your opponent. Suddenly the candidates are looking at Congressman Paul with new respect … and fear. His poll numbers in Iowa are nothing to sneeze at, much less ignore: Gingrich barely leads Paul at 22% to 21%, with Mitt Romney at 16%, Michele Bachmann at 11%, Rick Perry at 9%, Rick Santorum at 8%, Jon Huntsman at 5%, and Gary Johnson at 1%.

[…] And if Paul comes out of Iowa as number 1 or 2, he could pull an upset even in New Hampshire.
[…] 1. The Money Bomb: This past Friday, Congressman Paul, launched his Tea Party Money Bomb to raise $4 million to fund his campaign operations in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. As of Saturday morning, December 17, he had raised more than $3,250,000 in cash.
