The author of this article decided not to focus on the candidates that were remaining, but in fact one of those that dropped out recently. Rick Perry. The author reflects on how many felt before/during/after he was in and dropped out. He showed how at first when he announced that he would run people had high confidence in him. But as time went on, people expressed their concern because he was clearly unprepared to run and it showed in the debates against the others. In terms of how his dropout would affect the race, the author seems to agree/think that his support for Gingrich will give Gingrich a bonus, but doesnt seem to think it will mean much because he expects president Obama to win the real election, as many do.

The author in this article is talking of the growing confience of Newt Gingrich as he seemed to be surging in votes just before the SC primary. He mentions quotes of his saying that if he won SC he would win nomination. Comments on how he says he can be a great leader. The author also includes remarks about how other smaller candidates such as Senator Santorum or Gov Rick Perrywere having a battle of their own that would divide up the votes. Faults in Mitt Romney were pointed out about his taxes and how hes is attacking Gingrich in acts of desperation to show his slipping lead in SC. These comments and events pointed out could have gained some posible voters for the Gingrich crowd because it showed the disarray of the author candidates and the confident, posotive facotrs in Newt.

In this article, the author is making it a point to show nobody was quite sure who was going to win South Carolina. He mentions different issues people will be focusing on that will either posotively or negatively affect the candidates including the economy, religion, view on the war, etc. The author doesnt come out front and say it but he seems to think people were going in with a negative view on Romney because of his taxes and because of his mormon religion. He also thought Ron Paul had strong support with his views on war. He seemed to favor Gingrich for SC victory. People who read this article before voting very could have had their minds changed from one way to another or could have been made even more confused on who to vote for then they already were perhaps.

In this article from the Philadelphia Inquire, the author discusses how in the closing days towards the South Carolina contest, Newt Gingrich and his fellow compeitors were scrambling around all over trying to win over last minute voters. The author emphasizes how important it was for Gingrich to win south carolina and how disappointing a loss could be for Mitt Romney. The author sets it up to show that he feels Gingrich will win. An example of this is telling how Rick Perry's support could boost him and by showing Romney's low expectations for the state to bein with. This aerticle could draw some of the possible Romney votes to Gingrich's side for south carolina and perhaps future states as well.

Economic Breakdown

This video from CNN breaks the voting from South Carolina down into who as voting for who in terms of economic status and salary. According to the viedo Newt Gingrich is more popular amongst voters who are in the middle range of people economically. Citizens who make between fifty and one hundred thousand dollars per year represented a high population of the voters and about 40% of them voted for Newt. Compared to those who make more than 200,000 a year (which is only 6% of South Carolina's population, almost 50% of them voted for Mitt Romney. The man showing these charts in the video makes it evident that most people that are just getting along or are struggling seemed to vote for Newt over Romney even though Romney is the candidate with the most experience in economics and claims that as his strongest suit. He also points out that most of the wealthy support Romney which could cause viewers that see this favor Gingrich in the future because of their economic status even if they may not know the candidate's views.

Newt sucks-up
http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politics/2012/01/21/sot-gingrich-south-carolina.cnn
This video featuring Newt Gingrich's victory speech in South Carolina. In this portion of his speech showed, he spends time complimenting his rivals for different achievements, knowledge of topics, or good ideas they've proposed. He went on to say that he agreed with them of some of them, while also speaking of which how he disagreed on others. But in my opinion Newt goes out of his way to say good things about each of them. To me this seems like he is doing so to appear as a nice guy and may gain some voters from looking this way while possibly delaying some negative campaigning against him by the other candidates. By trying to show some viewers that he has another side of him that is open to other thoughts then his own, he could steal some votes from his opponents and could very easilly swing the future polls his way and steal a state or two that was unexpected. It is little things like this that could potentially determine who is going to be running in November.

In this video talk off of CNN, it reveals how all of the candidates try to turn their stories around in an attempt to sound as much like the common person as possible. But then it goes and shows how they are all anything but commin when it comes to econmoics. The prices of their homes are revealled and most were valued between 3 and 10 million dollar homes, some of them owning more than one even. This video could anger many voters not more twoards one candidate or another but to all of them as a whole. It reveals that however much they claim to be like us, they aren't. They don't have to worry about paying bills, etc. Therefore this may have an effect on how they attempt to work the nations economy. It may also chane some voters minds about who they will vote for because the candidate may come off to some as a fraud afer watching this.
