This is an obvious attempt to blunt Newt’s surge. They must see him picking up plenty of Santorum voters. I guess they believe if people think Santorum can win, voters will stay with him and not switch to Newt.
The Romney contingent must really be desperate now. They know if Newt has a large surge here or if Santorum drops out, Florida may become a lost cause for Mitt. If Mitt loses Florida to Newt, he will be in deep trouble.
I agree there will be a coordinated effort to push Santorum by the Romney loving media types, but I don’t think Morris is part of that.
I think since he started spending all of his time in either DC or New York, he totally lost his feel for the electorate, which is what helped him advise Clinton. He’s gone tone deaf.
His anti Obama Care ads were awful, and not in tuned with the real reasons folks were against it.
