I forgot.
So many played voters
While it would be entertaining to watch Newt debate and destroy Barry, kinda like watching the mongoose take on the cobra, Newt has shown he can't even win a primary ...if he's out, most of his “intellectual” voters go to Romney. His only voting draw is if there is no one else to vote for. Same draw as Romney. Great. So his staying in is hurting Romney unless surpise- he shows up holding his hand on the podium at the Convention.
The actual voting results are shaping up to show the real real struggle is between Romney, Wall Street's pick, and Santorum with the grassroots. I believe the obamites are still misunderestimating the grassroots or maybe are just a little bit worried at this point.
The criticisms of Santorum are meager compared to the egregious flaws in obama, but something about Santorum evokes the same visceral hate from elitists as Sarah Palin received. Another fundamentalist white bread dumbo who openly displays his faith and wasn't smart enough abort his disabled children? The grassroots seems to be seeing through it.
You've forgotten a lot apparently. And if Newt leaves the race Santorum will be dispatched in quick fashion.
FYI: Newt won S.C., GA and was 2nd in AL, MS. And when the FL rules are reviewed (and if done fairly) Newt should get many delegates from his 2nd place.
According to Rasmussen, half the 'grass roots' still blame Bush for the current economic mess. An abiding hall mark of the incompetent is that they do not realize they are incompetent.
