I was speaking of Newt supporters...

[Utmost Certainty]

If Newt weren't in the race, I could care less about the outcome and won't vote for anybody—Romney and Santorum are both uninspiring statist boors. I suspect many Newt voters feel the same way.

I'd estimate that about ⅓ of Newt voters would abstain, ⅓ would go to Romney, and ⅓ would go to Santorum.

If Newt supporters are who they claim they are, I can’t see them honestly looking at Romney and Rick and choosing the hand picked GOPe candidate that Newt even hates with a passion. It doesn’t make sense to me and as with you, most of my personal interactions with people indicate that they are either on the Romney bandwagon or hate him.
