The fight has to continue to South Carolina, but the fight among conservatives is not likely to stop unless we forget about any of them winning in Iowa or New Hamsphire.
Tactical votes to defeat Romney are a better alternative that cancelling each other’s votes (Perry, Santorum, Newt, Bachmann) out allowing Romney to win the first two contests and gain momentum going into the South.
The race begins in South Carolina. Iowa is an anomaly, and NH is bagged for The Socialist. SC is coalesce time for the non-Romney who can beat Romney. Looks to be Newt if national polls mean anything.
