Santorum should have (rightfully) teamed-up with Newt after South Carolina ... but the "boy wonder" was way too smart for that ...

What. Are you a comedy writer? Why would Rick team up with a guy that no one wants to vote for? Huckabee won more states in '08 with far less money than Newt had. What in the world would make you think that Rick would need to team up with a guy that took a boat load of cash and was only able to manufacture a win in 2 states, one of which was his home state. That win in GA, BTW, didn't even break 50%.

Face it. The reason we are going to get stuck with Milt is strictly because of Newt being a spoiler. Election results are bearing it out as we speak.

Because Newt Gingrich's "come-from-behind" (landslide) South Carolina Victory established Newt as the "genuine" Conservative GOP candidate ...

And ... the only reason that Newt lost Florida was that Romney carbet-bombed Newt (65:1 TV ad ratio) ...

... just as Romney will carpet-bom Santorum in Pennslyvannia ...


Historically, the GOP's South Carolina winner goes on to win the GOP Presidential Nomination ...

and 2012 will be no different ... Newt Gingrich and Sarah Palin ...


Already, "Severe Romney Fatigue" is setting in ... marked first by his "Etch-A-Sketch" remark ...

and a reinforcing remark made the other day (perhaps by his wife) ...


Isn't it interesting that "all" of the issues (Gas prices, et al) raised by Newt Gingrich have been the very ones that Obama has been forced to defend himself vigorously against ?


Anyway ... a genuine "hats-off" to Santorum for fighting Romney in the trenches ...
