This whole notion that any candidate should withdraw to help another is flawed. Question: Whom did Michele Bachmann’s votes help? Cain’s votes? Cain’s votes mostly split between Newt and Romney. Typically, in a crowded field, when a candidate drops out their votes scatter to several other candidates, as well as to the rank of the undecided voter.

No, the way a candidate emerges from a pack is to sway voters to come to them, taking support from the others, thereby causing the others to withdraw: cause and effect.

The LamestreamMedia has driven us to civil war, using Zero’s playbook divide and conquer approach.

God help us.
