Nonsense. 60% of the Republican voters don’t want Romney. If Newt splits that 60%, Romney gets 40% and wins in the winner-take-all big states coming up.
This is a crap argument. It shows that at heart, many of Newt’s supporters are more anti-Santorum than they are anti-Romney. If Romney is so all-fired non-conservative, why hand him the nomination, unless out of animus against the other conservative?
