Yet no R has won without SC.
Gingrich is there for his ego. If he withdraws they’d stop talking about him like they don’t talk anymore about Bachman, Cain, and Perry.
He siphoned off enough votes that stopped Santorum from derailing Romney’s candidacy in MI (where Romney won by 3% of the vote and Gingrich got 7%) and again in OH where Romney won by less than 1% of the vote and Gingrich siphoned off nearly 14% of the vote. His “southern strategy” has been reduced to dust and he now still continues to be in the race. On Super Tuesday night Carl Cameron of FoxNews reported that Team Romney was simply “happy” to see Gingrich continue in the race. Now we all know why.
Go Santorum Go! He’s been outspent 20 to 1 in some cases, and conservative voters are flocking to him in droves and most important Gallup shows him beating Obama. (Psst. Don’t tell that to the Newties!)
I voted for Newt in the TN primary. Had he not been in the race, my vote would not have gone to Santorum. Don't assume.
And yet he stays, pushing for a brokered convention where he will either pull off an upset and become the Republican's nominee or Sarah Palin's running mate. While Santorum is slightly more desirable than Romney he's no Newt or Sarah. I'm happy Newt is hanging in there. The big money from the moron church is trying to buy mitt a nomination but when someone has to tell you, repeatedly, just how conservative they are... Well.. There is NOTHING conservative about him. Santorum is a decent man but he too is unwilling to dismantle the federal bureaucracies and return our nation to a free nation ruled by the government outlined in the US Constitution. A government of the people, for the people and by the people. Aaaaaaah.... I rant. Sorry but one more point. Those of you that whine because Newt is taking votes from Santorum, just remember... According to mitten's camp both Santorum and Newt are siphoning off votes from mitt. The way I see it, at this stage of the process, I'd rather see them taking votes from each other than pulling a perot. And why is it you're not whining about Romney siphoning off votes from Santorum?
