Depending on the state, I’m on both bandwagons. In Pennsylvania, Santorum; in Georgia, Gingrich.
Priority one is defeating Romney. If one of our 2 pull ahead to a first ballot nominating total, then so much the better. But, preventing a first ballot victory for Romney is the priority.
I'm not so optimistic about a brokered convention. Romney has the money and the GOPE behind him and when deals are made the establishment usually comes out on top.
We need a first ballot victory by a non-Romney candidate. If it goes to the convention, Romney will be the nominee. You can bet on it.
Depending on how the next couple of weeks goes, we need to gel around one non-Romney candidate. At this point it appears that Santorum is the most likely candidate to take out Romney. Santorum will get 90% of the Catholic vote and 90% of the church going Evangelical vote in the General Election.
Since my most important issue is the life issue and I believe that Santorum is the candidate who is the most committed to that issue, I'm leaning towards Santorum at this point.
I never thought he would gain any traction. I was wrong.
