I agree. Newt is ahead over night if Santorum and Perry drop out, but they’re not. Santorum will stay in thru FL also. Perry will drop out after SC.
So that will leave going into FL Romney, Paul, Santorum and Newt.
I am praying that Newt stays in this until it’s just him and Romney toe to toe, which may mean until March. If Santorum stays in that long, then folks let’s face it, he’s in it to let Romney win.
Newt was riding high UNTIL he proclaimed that he WILL be the nominee. The Campaign God has declared this to be TABOO. Never proclaim yourself the winner until you have in fact actually won. That proclamation marked Newt's Jump the Shark moment.
