Bet you never saw the zot coming your way.
Well, win or lose, Romney’s campaign probably doesn’t regard Michigan as a do-or-die state. Newt OTOH will have to do at least okay here. It doesn’t matter how Ron Paul does, but based on bumperstickers I see, he’ll probably come in third at least, behind Santorum and Romney.
I understand what you are saying, and why you are saying it. Just too early to choose the final horse and way too early to kill the other for meat. Polls don't always catch the true prevailing sentiment and sometimes get it way wrong; especially when getting it wrong is to the detriment of conservatives. If Newt or Santorum become irrelevant, at a time that is meaningful to the term, I'll gladly jump on the survivor's bandwagon, but I won't bury one (especially the one I think is the best, even if not making the strongest showing in the current clime) until there's no heartbeat. Keeping it a race for now will bring out the best and the worst in each and I can't fathom trying to kill one off at this time, unless it's Romney. Romney won't go away even if he loses his home state, but he can be compromised and Newt is more likely to ring the deathknell for Romney than Rick is, even if Newt eventually ends up so far out that he can't possibly win. At this stage, there is nobody on the fast track to the requisite delegates and that is why we keep hearing about the possibility of a brokered convention. I detest Romney as much as you, but I won't be blinded into a rash decision.
Exactly what I think.
If Mr, Rogers takes Michigan, it will be a good day in the neighborhood for Newt.
Santorum Should quit now and give Newt Gingrich all the votes. Gingrich would win! Michigan!
Yeah, just like Santurom gave his votes to Gingrich in Florida?
You Betcha...
GOOOOO NEWT!
Would it have mattered, or would it have just made you feel better?
Romney = 46.4%
Gingrich+Santorum = 31.9% + 13.3% = 45.2%
It would have made a huge difference, There would be less people staying home and not voting at all, IF Santorum would have it. One total different battle field.
You are not nearly politically astute as Gingrich is.
I never sat on a couch with Nancy Pelosi.
Let's not try to deny that Newt sticks his foot in his mouth fairly often. He's brilliant. His big head is full of big ideas. And, he frequently says stupid stuff.
He picks a KGB sounding handle.....and cheers for Mitt Trotsky ? Even the Paultards aren’t this lame.....
The things you miss on the night shift.......*sigh*
:(
I think the 8th and 14th could go to either candidate.
One week away, and I'll be voting for Rick.
Because Mitt and his GOP-e owns the vote counters and they know Mitt has to win to be taken seriously. Mitt's minions have already rigged the vote multiple times. Why not in a must win situation?
“And, he frequently says stupid stuff. “
Predictably beating the same old dead horse by referring back to April 2008 shows you need to look up the definition of frequent.
If you are going to toss in your two cents at a Newt supporter, then at least make it worth two cents.
Hey, busy guy! Nice to see you.
Mitt will lose Michigan. We are being bombarded with his commercials here in west Michigan. Some for Santorum, none for Gingrich. Santorum’s Rombo commercial is a hoot and has been on several times in the last few days. I have hung up on at least 10 Romney robo-calls. I think Romney will lose by at least 10 points. Face it Mitt you will never be president!
“How many home states does this fraud have?”
As many as it takes.
Your link refers to a correction Gingrich made all the way back in May, 2011.
Not exactly frequent, like you claimed.
