I don’t think it’s over yet, even if Romney wins SC and Florida.
Florida is an expensive TV market. Therefore, if Perry comes in 5th as expected, I think he will drop out.
That will leave Newt and Santorum vs Romney. Even if both stay in, and Romney wins Florida, he’d still have less than 100 delegates.
I think one would drop out then.
And going forward into Super Tuesday, with 500 delegates up for grabs, it would be Non-Romney vs Romney, one on one.
It is not be over. Even if Romney wins SC and Florida.
Newt would be crazy to get out after SC even if he comes in second. Santorum will not have the money to compete in Fl and Perry will probably drop out. Ron Paul will not be a factor in Fl as its a closed primary and all the libs and independents cannot vote. On super tuesday Newt will take GA for sure with either 76 or 78 delegates and probably most of the south. Its still a horse race.
