“Newt is not competing in Michigan. Realistically, he’ll only get back in the game if Santorum implodes.” - Absolutely right. There will never be a two man race between Newt and Rick and if there were Rick would win because of the social vote. If you are a Michigander for Newt you need to either vote for Newt or even Romney. Newt needs Santorum to get beaten and fade out. This race has always been and will always be Romney vs the not-Romney. Santorum is the current not-romney. If Newt wants a shot at Romney, Santorum has to go. I like Newt and that’s my hope. Whether you agree or not the logic is sound. If you are a Santorum guy you need to be doing everything you can not to knock out Mitt but to knock out Newt. The not-Romney is the majority, whoever stands there last wins.

Bingo! Santorum was even campaigning in Georgia a few weeks ago. His aim is clearly to drive Newt out of the race.

THERE IS STILL TIME TO DRIVE ROMNEY OUT OF THIS RACE. IF HE LOSES MI, HE’S TOAST. CALL, E-MAIL, FACEBOOK OR TWEET EVERYBODY YOU KNOW IN MI & TELL THEM TO VOTE AGAINST RINO-ROM & DRIVE HIM FROM THIS RACE. DO AMERICA A FAVOR MICHIGAN; VOTE SANTORUM.

If Romney loses Michigan, I wouldn’t say he’s “done” but he will no doubt be badly wounded going forward. Bear in mind he still has the staunch backing of the GOP establishment and lots of cash to burn.

If Romney wins the nomination, we all lose.

If Romney loses Michigan, he begins to crumble.

No, I didn’t hear him say that. But I can’t help thinking that’s what he’s thinking. It would make sense for him to strategize that.

AMEN! just listened to Santorum’s speach and almost threw up on my keyboard. Now Mitt is on and they are thanking Christie, Trump, Kid Rock, McCain and Brewer. It is absolutely disgusting.
All I can say is hang tough Newt and God help the USA
