In two weeks Romney went from 12 back to 16 up.... a 28 point swing. Clearly he has the momentum now. However, being the complete idiot he is, he could blow it again by making more stupid comments about trees, flowers, frogs, whatever. The next few days prior to Super Tuesday should be interesting.
