Gingrich à égalité avec Romney: comment expliquer cette situation?


Le principal problème de l'ancien "speaker of the house" est qu'il plaît aux républicains plus conservateurs (qui détestent Romney), mais qu'il arrive loin derière Obama dans les sondages nationaux.

"So what's behind Gingrich's rise in the new CNN poll and other recent surveys from other organizations?

Gingrich says that his well-received performances in the Republican presidential debates are one reason. His campaign was left for dead by many in late spring, after a number of top advisers and staffers quit and the campaign faced financial difficulties. But the former House Speaker has performed well in the 10 GOP presidential debates held this year, acting as the elder statesman while many of his rivals for the nomination attacked each other.

"I have to say, I'm very humbled that millions of people watched the debates and the general conclusion was that in fact I had real substance and real solutions," Gingrich said. "And that they prefer my approach of being positive to the kind of consultant-driven negativities that I think actually hurt the candidates that are negative."

"He's a sharp debater. He has been an intellectual and political force in the Republican Party in five different decades. When we started the race, we were assuming that was going to make it very difficult for him because the Republicans would be looking for a fresher face, said Ron Brownstein, Political Director for the Atlantic Media Company.

"There is the reality that there is a big chunk of the party, the more conservative, the more evangelical side of the party that does not want Mitt Romney and has simply not been able to settle on an alternative. So Gingrich is now getting his day in the sun," added Brownstein, a CNN political contributor."
