Here's the starting message I'm using:
Since Florida is a winner take all state and
Since Rick Santorum is home with his family, and
Since the number of people supporting Willard is much less than the combination of Newt+Ricks total
Can we make the suggestion that in Florida the Santorum backers cast their vote for the conservative candidate that can win, Newt.
We are not asking Paul or Rick to drop out their participation in the debates and collection of delegates in states where that is possible in valuable for the vetting process. We just ask them to support Newt in Florida.
If Rush/Sarah/Rick/FR/teaparty others could get this message out (Not Newt it would sound desperate)it would easily put Newt over the top in FL.
The problem here is that newt really isn’t much better than mittens.
He’s not pro gun either. But you must know that.

"Born special, born best,
Born different from all the rest,"
I think you are right. Ron Paul may go third party whether the Repub nominee is Newt or Willard. And if it's Willard then the Republican vote will be split and Obummer wins. But if it's Newt then most conservative / Tea Party voters will go for Newt and Paul will only pick up the disaffected Dems. Dem vote is split and Obummer loses.
Can you keep this at the top of the site at least through tomorrow? Maybe even Tuesday?
Close reponse to the most conservative achievement was posted by tsowellfan on your thread Friday with further info below.

The scary part is he was asked this question in a debate (the one before the last). I think it was what have you done for the conservative movement?
Romney answered: I got married, had a family and started a business.
Now thats the most pathetic answer Ive ever heard!

However, near the end of the debate, when he was asked about his accomplishments for the conservative movement, Mitts answer was embarrassingly bad. He started out by mentioning that he had been married, moved on to noting that he had started a business, and then noted several unimpressive things hed done in Massachussetts, none of which was Romneycare. Santorum could have given a good answer to that question, just as Paul could have and Newt has a better pedigree than anyone alive, which he recited when he was given a chance to talk.
Mitt, on the other hand, sounded like Megan McCain trying to explain why she earned her job as a columnist. Not only was Mitts answer a tremendous turn-off to conservatives, it goes back to his core problem:
Why should Republicans want to specifically see Mitt Romney in the White House? Nobody seems to have a really good answer to that question other than his business experience, which didnt make much of a difference when he was governor of Massachusetts.

And nothing to bring more conservative values to MA when governor. Au contraire ...
It’s time to stop this socialist takeover..
ENDORSE NEWT...
Florida is IT. This is where the cram down always occurs, coming out of South Carolina. Money dries up with the Florida win, and Newt was low on it in the first place. The voters elsewhere will now coalesce and it’s a drag through delusion to believe it will be somehow reversed. EVERY TIME.
Nope, Florida is the last stand. Santorum did something foul to the pooch by staying in for the Florida race and helped seal it for Romney.
Can we collectively stop trying to make Sarah out to be more than the politician she is? Sarah never hesitated to fly out here to Arizona to kiss McCain's ass in his primary battle. Yet two days before the Florida primary when Newt is hanging on by his finger nails, she sits on the sidelines, whining. Leaders lead! If Mitt takes Florida it's over.
I don’t get why Senator Jim DeMint didn’t endorse anybody, this time.
No it wouldn’t be over. But if Newt wins, it’ll send a strong signal to the rest of the voters in the country who may be fence sitters. If Newt wins, it’ll be the beginning of the end for Romney and ObamneyCare.
It’ll more than annoy the GOP-e, it’ll make their heads explode. It’ll be full on RINO panic!!
On friday jan 27, Rush went almost 3 hours vs romney and I expect the same thing monday and tuesday 30/31. Sarah has done almost all she can do including her fox tv appearances. Newt can blame himself for the pathetic debate peformances. Is there enough time for the florida voters to wake up?
“P.S. Rick Santorum is a great guy and a God fearing pro-life conservative, but he doesn’t stand a prayer of a chance in Florida, and he admits that. Florida is a winner take all state. Don’t let the GOP-e RINO Mitt Romney have those 50 delegates. Rick Santorum should immediately release his supporters in Florida to vote for Newt as Rick Perry did in South Carolina. And his supporters should do that either way.”
Mr. Robinson is right Senator Santorum. God bless you senator, but letting Romney win in Florida is a big mistake.
IF Romney wins the GOP nod, it is the absolute end of the Reagan legacy. Maoral conservatives like myself will have to find another home. I WILL NOT vote for Romney in a general election anymore than I would Obama.
What I don’t understand is why the “leaders” of the GOP as so out of touch with its base? They are going to lose it. I’m sick of voting for what some party insider picks for me.
Ms. Coulter - Are you paying attention...or am I just another of those persons in an angry “mob” as you characterized the voters of S.C.?
I used to get excited about tuning Rush in everyday, but as of late, I almost cringe listening to him. He seems more animated about his freakin' Iced Tea than he does the country. I'm so glad I'm not the only person who feels this way.
“The problem here is that newt really isnt much better than mittens. Hes not pro gun either. But you must know that.”
You have a misfire in your brain if you think Newt “isn’t much better than mittens”.
I will never vote for Romney, I will vote third party if he is the nominee. We must have a conservative or the republican party is finished.
The answer to that is simple. The good senator is not anxious to buck the GOP-e. Follow the money (and the power).
Will my original post to JR be included in your Message to Rush or if not could you send it...It’s posted up thread.
