Five to eight points in the next few primaries might, maybe, possibly get the RINOs to back off shoving Mitt down our throats.
IF by RINOs you mean the gop establishment, don't count on it. They are in a panic about Newt. He threatens their comfy, corrupt, easygoing little world.
Here's the deal: every time Newt gets stronger, the threat of a rino-inspired and financed turd party bid grows stronger. They did it to Reagan in 1980 using John Anderson, and they will do it to Newt using Ron Paul or whoever they think will do the most damage.
Make no mistake, the republican whores have their lifestyles on the line and they won't give them up without a fight. They will gladly see obama re-elected before supporting Newt.
Florida has been voting for a while and Romney gets the benefit of being way up when they opened the vote.
If many of those voted again I bet they would vote Newt.
This makes me ask, why open voting so early when so much can happen along the way?
