Romney Craters with
Independents<http://politicalwire.com/archives/2012/01/24/romney_craters_with_independents.html>A
new Washington Post-ABC News
poll<http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/behind-the-numbers/post/public-sours-on-romney-in-january/2012/01/03/gIQAUeetLQ_blog.html>
shows
Mitt Romney's popularity has dropped dramatically with an unfavorable
rating at 49% and favorable rating at 31%.

It's even worse among independents: 51% don't view him favorably while just
23% do.

Jonathan Chait<http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2012/01/newt-mitt-electability-gap-shrinks.html>:
"The Obama campaign would almost certainly still prefer to run against
Gingrich. But the electability gap between the two leading contenders is
dwindling. No wonder more and more conservatives are frantically casting
about for a new candidate to jump in and save the day."
