I think they’d probably split down the middle. Voters can have odd voting patterns. If Newt had the same family background as Santorum, it would probably virtually all go to him. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not slamming Newt for his past in saying that - I’m just trying to be analytical in how the votes might go if Santorum did drop out. I don’t think Santorum dropping out would be beneficial to Newt - it would be a wash. Personally I would go with Newt over the abortion issue as he has been consistently pro-life vs. Romney - and of course there’s Romneycare, etc.

Besides which...if Romney and Newt keeping going after each other with the same intensity as they have been and raise each others’ negatives, Santorum does in fact have a real shot at this.

If I had known that Santorum voters were romneybots, I would have challenged them every time they tried to pass themselves and Santorum off as conservative.

No wonder so many of them spend time trying to stop Romney’s only real opponent.

I would tend to agree with that. I'm sure there is some real variation of the number but who the heck knows what it is.

My point with Rush was that it was just an opinion without an agenda.

If I could place a bet, not that we'll ever really know anyway, Rush is voting for Gingrich....just MY opinion.

But the bottom line it wouldn't matter who he supports or endorses, it wouldn't change my vote what so ever.

I listen to him because I respect his point of view, I don't vote because of who or what he says.

I do happen to agree with him most time though.
