Polls are closed in Florida, and we're liveblogging the results of the Republican presidential primary.
Results: AP (By county) | CNN | Google | Politico
5:47 PM PT (Jed Lewison): Father of Obamacare on the TelePrompter!
5:49 PM PT (David Jarman): Here's a quick update on the actual counting: we're up to 70% reporting, with the statewide tally Romney 47, Gingrich 32, Santorum 13, Paul 7. (And Rick Perry in 5th place with 6,000 votes.) Still a lot of precincts left in Romney-friendly Miami-Dade (62-25) and Broward (50-30) Counties. Early reports from the more urbanized parts of the Panhandle (39 Romney, 37 Gingrich in Escambia (Pensacola) and 37 Romney, 36 Gingrich in Bay (Panama City) haven't done anything to help Gingrich.
5:53 PM PT:
Do you think Mitt knows he's "elite"? I wonder if he's had self-awareness software installed.

5:53 PM PT: Interviewed on CNN, Rick Santorum is bragging that he raised $200,000 today. Um Ricky? That's not a lot of money.
5:58 PM PT:
Do Androids Dream of Electronic Funds Transfers to the Cayman Islands?

6:01 PM PT: Santorum pretending he's in this for the long haul, and why not? He has 200 Gs burning a hole in his pocket! That'll, like, buy him six ads.
6:06 PM PT:
Mitt's new math: he promised to balance budget without raising taxes or cutting defense, & he attacked Obama for cutting Medicare.

6:08 PM PT: Newt is up! Thanks his staff who did so awesome that he came in distant second.
6:10 PM PT:

6:12 PM PT: Gingrich blabbing on and on about people power. I wonder if that means his sugar daddy casino mogul is done writing checks.
With lucks, he might raise a cool 200 Gs like Santorum!
6:12 PM PT:
Gingrich slogan: 46 states to go. And I'm on the ballot in many of them!

6:16 PM PT: If we were playing a drinking game, and chugging every time Newt said "establishment", we'd all be in a coma.
6:18 PM PT (Kaili Joy Gray): The liveblogging continues in the next thread.
