smartest thing Newt can do is support Ron Paul in all of the caucuses because Ron Paul has the organization. It would stop Mitt from getting the delegates needed to win and then he could take it to the convention. That’s how Newt gets there. The other alternative would have been to ensure everyone stays in the race and the delegates would have been split enough to keep Mitt from winning enough but with only 4 people in the race Newt needs Ron Paul to do very very well in the Caucasus states
I guess I should mention, I don’t see this happening. Newt doesn’t want to be seen as backing Ron Paul’s foreign policy but the truth is this is his best option (don’t split the Newt-Paul vote in Caucuses. Endorse him)
Gingrich back in 2nd with 7.5% of the vote in:
Romney 39.3% 1,807
Gingrich 25.1% 1,156
Paul 22.1% 1,017
Santorum 13.1% 604

Good idea. Let Paul take from Mitt in the caucus states and Newt in the primary states. This will work until the proportional delegates end.
If that is what it takes then go Ron Paul!
I worry about toying with Paul with Iran looking as if it is about to blow. But Obama wouldn’t help much—Paul wouldn’t be any worse there.
And Romney can’t beat Obama in my opinion. Even if he could, Romney scares me, too.
We must learn to organize like the ACORN folk (without the fraud) How do we get this together? We need to.
I want Gingrich! If we can’t have him I don’t want a Jeb shoved down our throats either.
This stuff is driving me crazy...
