Polls show that AL and MS are pretty much three-way ties, with the not-Romney vote, of course, split down the middle. That kind of result helps Romney, of course.

Ambigously bad news for Romney: He’s only four ahead of Santorum nationwide.
I certainly agree with Raymond below that Romney is joking when he tries to speak southern, and no reasonable person would be offended. Well, “cheesy grits” is a bit offensive. The manly and true phrase is “cheese grits.” I also don’t believe him when he says he found a meal of biscuits and “cheesy grits” to be delicious. It’s not, after all. Anyway, my sense is Romney is doing a little better in the South as a whole, but only a little better.
