In a nut shell, Newt is right about that. But the type of people that go this far in a presidential election campaign (Newt included) are not “quitters”. They are the type that go into the fourth quarter, behind by three touchdowns, believing they can still pull off a win.

And sometimes they do, which just encourages them.

They're just dreaming.

I’m afraid you’re right about that. It is up to the supporters to back off sharply, but since conservatives can’t do math and odds, Romney may pull it off South in Carolina. However, it was time for the master to speak on the subject and I am glad he did. He was talking, IMHO, to the bundlers and financeirs as much as the supporters, to ALL wake up and do the math and the odds in South Carolina, or else, while at the same time to hold the margin of a Romney victory down to a manageable one, for even going on to Florida.

Hell to pay for Santorum/Perry supporters if they should cost Newt South Carolina as the polls will catch up to his break out from the debate “get” Monday night. Thursday’s CNN debate seals it, IF, the moderators even bother to include Newt in the debate. They will be promoting disunity, Santorum, and Romney of course.

Your right about that....anyone seeking high office isn’t a quitter and will pull out all the stops. But Newt is off base in my mind because he hasn’t finished in the top three yet but he’s calling for everyone else to drop out??

Any of the people would win if the base would Consolidate behind them....If Perry and Newt dropped out of course Santourum would be a lock. But at this stage and SC being an important state all will stay in splitting the votes and Romney of course will come out on top. The media will crown Romney the winner of the whole thing. Sickening....We are on our way to another Obama term folks
