It’s not a sporting event and it’s not sitcoms. There is a point to it all beyond mere entertainment. When that point disappears, that’s when a candidate has to face the reality that he is spending money people are sending to him that is hard earned money on an exercise that he realizes cannot succeed. That starts to edge towards unethical and no failed candidate ever wants to leave the arena like that.

It’s over. He knows it. He has to work through the process of shutting down the campaign.


Your boy has 50% NEGATIVES, the same level as Clintons.

This makes Mitt unelectable.

Mitt needs to pack it in and endorse Fred.

Fred needs to stay in as the only electable consistent conservative in the race.

I don’t think you appreciate what a master you are dealing with. Someone said Mitt is playing chess and everyone else is playing checkers. I don’t know who said that or I would give them credit for it.

Fred reminds me of quarterback that was good 15 years ago and people really like him. Then comes a big game and they wake him up and throw him in the game with a bunch of guys that have been working hard on their game. He makes a valiant effort but he hasn’t seen the ball since the kick-off.

I think Mitt is really playing a very good game. He knew it was going to get nasty in SC and that McCain had advantages there that he probably couldn’t overcome without losing a lot of blood. So he lets the others go at each other, and he goes to Nevada and picks up the low hanging fruit. Sounds like a smart move to me.

Watch Florida, Mitt moved in and he has been working it quietly for a long time. He is going to make a big stand there and I predict he will win or take a really big second that will further reduce the field. McCain will be gone and Rudy will be hurt. Mitt is the only one with the organization and money to go hard at Super Tuesday.
