Santorum Suspends: So What Now?

I guess now we're stuck with Mitt, who like McCain probably believes our country needs another 4 years with the affirmative action president. May God help America survive this.

He doesn’t want to risk a humiliating loss in PA.

Thanks for the diversion, Rick. Hope you enjoyed the ride.

Well Newt is still in! If he don’t win we can all sit around and cry about it or We can throw Obama (zero) out on his ear!

“RUSH: Do you hear the reference to the Tea Party there? It was the fondest hope that that Tea Party eruption in 2010 would produce a like-minded presidential nominee and campaign.”

While I’m sure many of the original Tea Partiers are still there, I think moderates have also infiltrated the Tea Party. I have felt that way for a long time. The Tea Party is not quite what it used to be, imo.

With the race down to Willard and Newt the best move is for Rick to call on Sarah and Perry, perhaps another to coalesce into a campaign for Newt. With the various factions of the conservatives and republicans coming together they can thwart the undercurrent of the go-pees presumption of Willard is the winner.

Picture Newt, Santorum, Palin and Perry together on a campaign stage beating up on Hussein Obama.

Willard’s mealy mouth approach will wither and fade behind the roar of the cheering crowds.

I Know I am voting for Newt in the PA primary.
I can’t support Romney.

Conservative Talk Radio hosts need to conduct a full court press on Romney to make a solid VP pick in exchange for their support:

Don't get hopes up for this. Even the Tea Party let us down. For some reason the Tea Parties sat back too long and let the only real Constitutional conservative down, that is Newt. Republicans will never learn that sitting back get them nowhere.

Absolutely; I expect that Newt will be surprised and pleased when he sees how much of PA goes for him! Too bad we can’t vote for VP as well because Newt/Santorum doesn’t sound bad to this girl!

The RNC probably agreed to pay off his campaign debt if he dropped out. Just my guess.

Romney could ask JC himself to be his running mate and I still won't cast a vote for him.

A VP doesn't make the POTUS, the POTUS makes the VP.

Romney will not be good for the country, period!!

1) I vote for him anyway in the Pennsylvania primary.

2) I either stay home in November (not a good idea, ever) or write in Santorum. Since Øbama-lite isn't likely to win I can hardly consider that a wasted protest vote.

I am voting Santorum here in PA. The Primary election is just a short time away and there is no time for anyone else to mount a challenge against Milt. If by some fluke he wins, it counts delegate wise. Rick just suspended the campaign, so it just means he isn’t campaigning.

I have no idea what to do in the fall. I am sure that will be worked out after a few bottles of Single Malt are ingested the weekend before the election.

Ok, I have a lot of thoughts but why if he is a true fighter, why wouldn't he stay in until after the Pennsylvania vote. Rick divided the conservatives in the south. It is such a shame this all has happened when we had stronger candidates in the field. Whether people liked some of the other candidates or not; they all were better than Romney in some degree (even with their weaknesses) The entire thing was to stop Newt Gingrich after the Gop-e saw his performances in many debates. The excitement of Newt's message and taking the fight to the bias media gave a lot of people a desire to fight the radicals head on. How can the soc cons vote for Romney-how can a true conservative support Romney and how he will take the party. Romney has flaws and Obama does-but who will motivate the base more. Romney is wrong for the country.

1. Support Newt.
2. Work to keep the House in the GOP's control and retake the Senate.
