3. That's a tough one. I don't see that voting for Mitt does much good. How are the most

How are the most recent polls? Last I heard, Mitt was still comfortably ahead, with Gingrich gaining.

My gut reaction was to vote for Gingrich, depending on momentum and the polls, since it didn't look like Gingrich was going to win, last I saw.

Voting for the likely #2 would have the most effect, if you can determine who that might be.
