“This is probably GOOD news for the Romney Campaign. Santorum had all the momentum and was threatening Romney everywhere. If Newt gets this money it can only serve to hurt Santorum and divide the anti-Romney vote.”
It depends. I think the smartest move for team Gingrich would be to carpet bomb Romney only and remove him from consideration as a viable candidate. Then Newt and Santorum can go head to head giving Newt one last shot.
If Newt goes solely after Santorum (or Romney AND Santorum)he is atually no better off. It is still a three man race, where he is trailing, which doesn’t narrow the field. At best, it returns to the conservatives splittng the Not Romney vote and does Gingrich no good.
Newt needs to destroy Romney ASAP. By “destroy” I mean DESTROY.
Then again, I am not paid political consultant so what do I know?
The best way to end Romney’s chance at the nomination is to show video of Liberal Romney.
