WHich is why the hair on the back of my neck is standing up! If Santorum goes the way of Romney (a SURE loser ticket) it tells me Santorum was BOUGHT< and is NOT a Conservative!
Santorum is the Endorser. He has been throwing support if not delegates to Romney with both hands already, no doubt in a bloody quest for a dang job.
By the time this vulture drops out he will have so damaged Newt among his own supporters that by drop time they will naturally move away from Newt and over to Romney.
I am thinking Ron Paul will run Third Party. Unless, perhaps Newt, by then, can be seen leading a broad and sweeping populist movement, enough to impress Paul, and they negotiate some kind of an alliance that benefits Uncle Nutty too. Third Party is a dead ender, but Ron Paul is prepared to cause a RINO crack up with no further delay. And...so am I.
