Newt expected to win TN on Tuesday and was talking about it just a couple of weeks ago. I think Rick's a lot stronger in the South than people give him credit for. The media's dying for a brokered convention...so are a bunch of Freepers...to that end the template is that Santorum is 'only ' strong in the midwest and Newt controls the South. And therefore neither is strong enough to win outright, hence a brokered convention. I think that's b.s.
Pulling hard for Santorum here in Louisiana!
Your opinion, is obviously tainted, since you decided to post this BS in the first place. Any half hearted search, would have revealed what I just posted above. And you know it.
I think it is too, but with all these proportional elections, the Republican party has created a situation where if one guy gets a decent lead, the other guys play hell trying to catch up. And if two are dragging each other down trying to catch the leader, it’s basically impossible.
As time rolls on, I think it’s going to become embarrassingly obvious, how much eggo is playing into this.
IMO, most people have had enough of Newt. It seems that in the South at least, they prefer Santorum over him.
It would be real interesting to see what would happen if Newt did stand down. If his support when 50/50 to Mitt and Rick, it would sure be a real eye opener. Newt’s folks like to say he’s the best Conservative in the bunch. If his followers break for Mitt, that’s going to become less and less of an easy sell.
