Sorry, but at this point Newt is the only one left who can hold the pass against a Romney victory. The others can’t

Horse hockey. In any two man race, Romney loses. The sooner people come to this realization, the sooner we can begin backing an actual conservative candidate. Romney's numbers have not gone up in months. This means that a sizable majority of Republican voters will back anyone other than Romney.

We should be operating out of confidence rather than out of fear.

According to who or what?

The problem with this analysis, is that the anti-Romney forces are too scattered to prevent a Romney nomination (and by implication, an Obama reelection). Gingrich is the last man standing who could prevent that—Bachmann, Santorum, and Perry are utter nonstarters now for the reasons I pointed out in brief.

I know you dislike Gingrich, considering your post history, but you should probably consider whether you dislike Romney more.
