Mitt Romney stomped Newt Gingrich in Florida's primary. Mitt had 46% and Newt had 32%. The victory gave Romney new momentum which will prove valuable in the upcoming campaign events. Romney is moderate while Gingrich is more conservative, and Santorum thinks that Newt's loss means it is his time to shine as a conservative competitor to Romney. Gingrich and Romney entered a strong debate and Romney came out on top, talking about Gingrich's ex-wives and his plan to put a colony on the moon. This debate spurred many negative ads, almost 92% of all political ads in Florida last week. This seems to be the most negative campaign ever. The super PACs play a huge role, and Romney's super PAC is outspending Gingrich's. If Gingrich is to win, he has to do something to fix his problem with women voters because he only got 29% compared to Romney's 51%.
