Holy Shit. Gingrich Now Leads

Gingrich_Polls

PPP is the latest pollster to find Gingrich ahead:

It's clear that the debate Monday night did a lot to help Gingrich's prospects in the state. 56% of voters say they watched it, and with those folks Gingrich's lead over Romney is 43-27. Romney still has a 29-22 advantage on Gingrich with those who didn't tune in.

Which puts Newt in the lead in the poll of polls. Which raises the stakes for tonight. I'll be live-blogging, and the Dish will be covering all the post debate reax as well. Update from a reader:

And that poll doesn't take into account Perry dropping out and throwing support to Newt.  Also, it probably doesn't count Santorum actually winning in Iowa.  And the Newt second-wife interview.

WOW, I need more popcorn.
