A frightening scenario appears to be playing itself out as we march inexorably toward the time when real live voters begin casting meaningful votes to select the Republican candidate who will face President Barack Obama in 11 months: Newt Gingrich might win.

Many of our friends on the “right” seem OK with that. In fact, over the past two weeks in our own GOP Presidential poll, Gingrich has led Ron Paul. The latest results during that period:

Candidate	Votes In Poll
Newt Gingrich	8,920
Ron Paul	7,081
Herman Cain	4,355
Mitt Romney	2,004
Rick Perry	1,280
