The poll numbers continue to look good for Mitt Romney in the state of Florida, as new surveys out today give Romney a nine point edge over Newt Gingrich in the Republican race for President.

It's been a head-shaking last few days when it comes to polls, as Romney has gone from double digit leads to behind by eight points to ahead by 7-9 points.

"Speaker Newt Gingrich’s momentum from his South Carolina victory appears to have stalled and Gov. Mitt Romney seems to be pulling away in Florida," said Peter Hamby of Quinnipiac University.

The Quinnipiac poll which gave Romney a nine point edge came just two days after the same organization had found Romney with a two point advantage - a seven point increase in 48 hours.

So, just as Gingrich suddenly turned the tables a weeek ago in South Carolina, the same thing is happening for Romney in Florida.

"9.9 percent of Floridians out of work," Romney said in a Miami appearance on Friday morning.

"This is unacceptable," Romney added.

Gingrich also emphasized economic issues in the same forum, saying it's not just about individual ethnic groups.

"Virtually everybody has aspirations that are at the heart of the American dream," Gingrich said.

Gingrich spoke before Romney, and gave no signs of giving up, as his campaign issued an ambitious schedule that will take him all over the state on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

Gingrich will rumble his way along the I-4 corridor on Saturday, while Romney will have events in the Florida Panhandle, in Panama City and Pensacola.

We'll see where my car takes me in this state, which is a bit more difficult to cover as a one-man reporting operation than Iowa, New Hampshire or even South Carolina.

Just a few days to go.
