Gingrich Crushing Romney in Florida

A new Public Policy Polling survey in Florida shows Newt Gingrich leading the Republican presidential field with 47%, followed by Mitt Romney at 17%, Herman Cain at 15%, Ron Paul at 5%, Michele Bachmann at 5%, Jon Huntsman at 3%, Rick Perry at 2%, and Rick Santorum at 1%.

Key finding: “The biggest reason for Newt Gingrich’s rise is that he’s picked up the
voters of Herman Cain and Rick Perry as their campaigns have fallen
apart.  But these numbers make it pretty clear he’s doing more than
that- some of Mitt Romney’s ‘25%’ is starting to fall off and move
toward Newt as well.”

An Insider Advantage poll released earlier also showed Gingrich with a huge lead.
