I transcribed the words from Hammond after rewinding my VCR and getting the exact words.
This is a great straegy. These two conservatives make a pact that the last one standing gets the others delegates. I think it will be Newt.
Santorum just got trounced in NH (dropped 15 points from Iowa) and Paul, Huntsman and Perry are in single digits in SC, they are done and should basically drop out now.
Santorum was at 4% 3 weeks ago and will be back to single digits by primary day.
Gingrich was at 31% in SC 3 weeks ago, slipped to 18% after Iowa and is now back up to 23%, while the degenerate scumbag Romney has dropped 10 points in the last 5 days.
This is an easy win for Gingrich and the end of the line for the rest of the clowns.
Newt isn’t going anywhere.
Rick is going to have to run now without the MSM pumping him.
Huntsman is their new baby.
A Newt/Santorum ticket would be a great strategic move right now.
If Gingrich does this, my respect for him will be strengthened.
“Gingrich Could Endorse Santorum”
Bingo!
Newt’s negatives are now sky high among republicans and he has no chance of winning the nomination.
He needs to bow out and endorse a pro-capitalist candidate like Santorum.
Newt can still spend his PAC money running ads. But if he stays in the race pulling 10% of the vote he might as well just endorse Romney. Newt needs to do the right thing. He is beginning to sound dangerously close to Hugo Chavez and that’s not going to win him any friends in a republican primary. And it could very well destroy his legacy.
I met Newt yesterday, and he seemed tired. It really wouldn’t surprise me.
Newt understands what is at stake if Romney gets the nomination.
I love Newt and I love the idea of him going after Mittens. However, I think he is very wrong in choosing his line of attack on Mittens. I expect Obama and the Rats to attack Mittens with the whole Bain Capital thing, but not a fellow Republican. He and Perry have given legitimacy to this line of attack and they have to stop it now!
If Newt needs ammo to attack Mittens with, read all the posts on here bashing him. Most of us do it with legitimate gripes and not some crap made up about how he fires people and made money off them. Mittens has serious flaws, but working for Bain Capital is not one of them.
Smell’s like another dirty trick from Ailes/FOX/Romney/Soros.
No sale.
Santorum should drop out and shoot for Newt’s VP.
It will be interesting to hear what Newt has to say. Regarding him dropping out and endorsing Santroum, I think it is a bit early for that and I hope Newt does not do that.
Let’s not play main stream media here people and say that the primaries are all over. Mittens did not do well in NH. Yes he won but he did not get 50% of the vote. He was supposed to absolutely trounce people there.
PLUS NH was an open primary and Democraps cross over to screw up the voting....
Seriously, this is NOT over. Remember McCain {yuck} came out of nowhere last year.
I heard from a source at the Gingrich campaign that Santorum is going to bow out later this week and endorse Gingrich!
It’ll be a great thing, too! Now Conservatives can all rally behind Newt and beat Romney!!!!
BTW - since when is an unsubstantiated rumor “Breaking News?”
I am starting to get really sick of all this divide and conquer BS. It is what Obama has been doing to us for years now and God knows I can’t stand him and don’t want him in office for another day. I will vote for whichever of the candidates wins the nomination and is able to kick Obama’s ass all the way back to Chicago. After Sarah didn’t run, I really have no preference. I think any one of them would be a million times better than Obama.
