+1 that! I remember everyone laughing at the DUmmies saying that they just didn’t understand, Obama was playing three dimensional chess! Newt is not some master strategist, he knows he will lose to even the Paulbots there.
Disagree Newt is playing high stakes poker in Michigan.
If Santorum wins Michigan I don’t care by how much, He becomes the Heir apparent the one to beat.
Newt staying out of Michigan does several things.
1. Saves Newt’s Money,
2. Forces Mittens to Attack Santorum, Newt gets a breather before super Tuesday. Remember voters have very short memories.
Santorum is all in in Michigan. If he wins it will be huge possibly even the nomination. But if he loses he may not recover.
So far Santorum has only won 3 non binding caucus he has yet to win a primary that counts.
