Why do all of these liberal and establishment pundits demand one conservative "drop out?"

It's early yet, no one need "drop out" unless these people, like Mitt, wish it to be between Mitt and Paul so that Mitt can win as "the conservative" in the race.

“like Mitt, wish it to be between Mitt and Paul so that Mitt can win as “the conservative” in the race.”

Yes, Mitt and Paul are both conservatives.

Hey native sunflower,

Mitt’s delusional. Newt is delusional as well.

Yes, “these people” want it to be Mittens and RP so that Mitt wins after ALL but he and RP have been forced out. So yes, the weaker ones need to clear the way for the strongest rival of BHO - unless we want to get stuck with Romney (hence BHO again).

There will be other years for Santorum and Perry, but not this year. They’re just not up to the heat of the hellish Obama machine.
