How about those Gingrich delegates from Virginia!

Oh, wait... Newt has the same problem.

What a bogus post.

I thought I heard that Virginia went through Newt and Rick Perry's signatures with a fine tooth comb---something they NEVER had done before, and certainly didn't do to Romney or Paul. They didn't do it to Santorum. because he didn't submit any signatures. Why didn't he? What possible reason could there be for him to ignore a huge state like Virgina? Obviously, back in December he was simply not serious about really running for President.

Newt DOESN”T have the same problem.

We are informed enough here to know that.

The single exception of VA, where they monkeyed with the system and only those who had run before...Romney and Paul...were excused from the signature checks...DOESN’T equal Santorum’s delegate problems in various states.

ANd in VA, Santorum did not even try.

Like a chirping bird who thinks any old song will do so just keep chirping away, that’s what the statement that Newt’s VA ballot trouble = all of Santorum’s delegate trouble, reminds me of.

Doesn’t FLY here, we know better.

I was thinking the same thing. The Gingrich supporters on this forum have been his biggest obstacle to my support.

Yours is the bogus post.

Virginia was a different story. Like Perry, Newt submitted more than enough signatures, a larger than expected number deemed invalid by the party. Santorum didn't even bother.

In TN? Newt had a slate of delates on the ballot. While Santorum won the state, he had NO delegates on the ballot. He has to depend upon the party to give him some.

Is Newt losing delegates he earned through votes cast because of the campaign's paperwork failure as happened in Ohio with Santorum, as may happen in Michigan and elsewhere?

Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil... sainted Santorum can do no wrong. /s
