Meet The Press
Air Date - January 15
Representative Tim Scott and Senator Lindsay Graham of North Carolina were featured on last Sunday’s episode of Meet the Press. They discussed how a month ago, Newt Gingrich was the one who was projected to be winning. Super PAC and debates have definitely influenced the election. If Romney wins it will be over. Social conservatives are running the campaign, and the Evangelical vote will in North Carolina will be huge. Three candidates will be going after that vote, and it is an area that does not favor Romney. The men discussed what will be driving this vote. Everyone is concerned about jobs because of the unemployment rate. Republicans are also trying to ensure that Obama becomes a one term president.
If Romney is the final nominee, the question arises with Obama use ammunition that the former GOP candidates used against him? Rep. Tim Scott does not know who he will endorse, because each candidate has something that he likes. He hopes that this process makes all the candidates a little bit tougher. What is important to him is who matches his values and who will beat Obama. The results will be revealed on Saturday, because it’ll be the last stand. Everyone wants Romney out of the way so they can take the race to Florida with some momentum.
The results on Saturday will either propel the race forward, or bring it to a stop. How are the remaining candidates going to win over the voters that matter? The future is not as bright for Romney when it comes to religion and trying to win over Evangelical votes. North Carolina could really be a toss up.
