Santorum is not a pleasant person (unless you loved Jimmy Carter) and is not conservative except in social areas. The last 2 “victories” were non-binding caucuses and one primary in which Gingrich was not even competing.
He has always played to Romney, and I think he will probably end up going with him in some way. That’s not ugly, it’s simply how I see it.
I don't understand why people keep saying this.
He's conservative on national defense issues.
He's conservative on gun issues.
He's not the most fiscally conservative candidate ever, but he's not the big union guy that some on this site like to paint him as. His AFL-CIO rating is 13%. For comparison, Ron Paul's was 19% through 2009.
But for money, Newt would be able to elevate this primary issue by issue, and still take it to Romney at the same time.
With the big money freezing Newt out, he is virtually on media blackout and silenced, for all practical purposes.
All I know is that Gingrich hasn’t won anything except SC and he’s trailing Rick in every state except GA, where he’s losing ground rapidly. In all the National polls, Newt is toast. And if you are hitting bottom as Super Tuesday, then it is probably time to go back to making global warming commercials with Nancy Pelosi.
