Anyone you know that will vote for these 3 candidates in Nevada, get them to the caucuses today.

Nevada is South Utah and its also Sodom & Gomorrah.... Romney likely wins in a walk.

[Logical me]

I the push is to get the voters out for Paul, Gingrich, and Santorum then Romney wins. If Paul and Santorum gets the hell out of the race, then Gingrich might win NV. That is if the Mormons decide to not vote.

Drive a friend! Or Walk!

The mormons are beginning to get on my nerves. Mitt Romney lied about Newt in his Florida ads and he continues to be put up on this high pedestal. People please stop Romney.

Yep, splitting the notRomney vote just helps Romney yet again.

Paul is hopeless and in it for Paul, but perhaps Santorum could be convinced to withdraw in time to stop Mitt.

[Steelers6]

The vote is proportional, any vote that doesn’t go to Romney is good because his vote will go down.

[newzjunkey]

Romney won with 51% in 2008; Ron Paul was second with less than 14%.

[Vaquero]

NOT PAUL
NOT MYTH

[hinckley buzzard]

Paul and his bots think it's all a f*ing videogame. Santorum thinks he can convince people he's on a holy quest. I don't think either one of them, or their followers, really gives a shit about the Republic.

Santorum is polling ahead of Newt and Romney in this nation poll Versus Obama!

The vote is proportional, any vote that doesn’t go to Romney is good because his vote will go down.

But that's counterbalanced by the fact that his opponents votes will be split. That's how Romney wins with less than a majority, (heck less than 30%) support.

I believe the poll in your link is just for N. Carolina, and taken just after Iowa.

Play-by-Play of the Nevada Caucus

I question Newt's ability to go the distance. It scared me when Newt said he’d decided to stay in after SC even if he lost. What other option was there, to drop? If Santorum's forced out and Newt takes a dive, our options will consist of Romney or Paul.

Why, and if your are questioning Newt's ability to go the distance, why aren't you questioning Santorum's ability to got the distance?

[D-fendr]

I hear you Kenny, but if both stay in, we have no options: Romney wins.

I know it’s not quite that simple, but the math is going to get pretty rough soon.

If everyone coalesced around Santorum, I’d be fine with him; but I don’t think it is, will or can.

RIck’s problem, IMHO, is he’s too soft or I dunno how to say it. Not inspiring as a leader and I can’t see him taking it to Obama. Newt has a prayer, at least, of effectively articulating a conservative message.

Not thrilled with the choices, but this is how I see it now..

[erkelly]

Just got home from caucusing about two hours ago; 12 people showed up for our precinct. 2 for Paul, 2 for Gingrich (one was me) and 8 Mormons for Romney. We talked for an hour among ourselves before we voted. The result:

2 for Paul (no surprise) 4 for Romney, SIX FOR NEWT!!!

I hear-by declare I was wrong about Mormons’ mindless support for Romney. They can be reached with the truth where politics are concerned.

Newt should have done more here, I really think that if he had put his heart into this campaign in Nevada, he would have won it, and it might have been a good antidote to Florida even if it isn't a lot of votes.

But he will definitely get some delegates!

[Kenny]

As I said, Newt indicated that he would fight on after New Hampshire if he took a solid second. Back then at least he didn’t seem unconditionally committed. Maybe that’s changed with the SC win but I’m not confident enough to run out the only other conservative in the race (except Paul who’s just nuts).

As far as Santorum staying, I’m praying one or the other will go the distance and not force Romney on us.

[Kenny]

I agree with everything you said. Guess the next few days might shape the race one way or the other.
