I love the South.
What’s wrong with California, Mass, New York etc?
If your in OH and a Conservative you need to vote Santorum. If your in GA and a Conservative you need to vote Newt.
I love the South. That is I hope they go for Newt as Georgia has.

Newt can’t get 50 percent in his state he represented for 20 years.....snickers. I love it. lilyfreeper your all over Santorum threads bashing him all day long. Well here you go. Newt is not even going to get 1/2 the delegates in Georgia because they know him best. This is working out even better than I imagined. Go Santorum!!!!!
Any idea where I can see the full report? I clicked on the link and it just goes to Twitter, which for me went nowhere.
I’ve seen the anti-Santorum ads and have read somewhere here about his voting record so I have to ask - what has he actually done that we should vote for him as a conservative? I don’t mean what he’s said....that doesn’t matter to me - what has he done?
We know Newt’s record, we know Romney’s record...they’ve both run big organizations and have a track record - like it or not.
I really disliked the Obama hysteria over Obama’s supposed eloquence and historic quality - and look what we ended up with. I don’t think getting hysterical over Santorum because he looks and sounds good is all that much different.
Based on those numbers across all CD’s. Which want happen but for the math of what could possibly happen
Then
Newt gets 52 Delegates
Mittens gets 24 Delegates
Santorum gets 0 Delegates
Best thing would be for Santorum to throw his supports to Newt so Mittens get fewer delegates.
Yes, Santorum is terrible.
Even good news for Newt, they squabble it's importance. Santos needs to go. For months, he has caused this division. If we end up with Mitt, I blame him.
If he is such a terrible candidate why does Rasmussen have him closer to Obama than Romney or Gingrich in its daily poll?
Unfortunately for Newt, Georgia doesn’t have a statewide “winner take all” for 50%; all statewide delegates are given proportionally to candidates beating 20%.
So, believe it or not, if 2% of the Gingrich folks voted for Santorum instead, it would cost Gingrich 1 delegate, but get Santorum a bunch, and cost Romney a bunch. Gingrich taking votes away from Santorum at this point pushes Romney closer to winning the nomination.
Now, in each district, 50% gets all 3 delegates, otherwise they are split 2/1. When Santorum was in 2nd, it made no difference, but with Romney in 2nd, we need Newt to get 50% to keep Romney from getting those delegates.
My guess is Romney is going to end up with more delegates in Tennessee, Ohio, and Georgia than was predicted a week ago. Gingrich might also end up with more, but Gingrich/Santorum together will get less than they were getting before.
This is considered a “good thing” by some, but to me it looks like we are pushing Romney to the nomination.
Oh, how I wish Newt might pull this off.
At our Washington state Caucus a Romulan was saying that she just wanted to defeat Obama and that Newt has too much “baggage” and that she didn’t think Santorum is strong enough to win.
She is so wrong. Only Newt can do this. Romulus will be a punching bag for class warfare attack, flip flop and magic underwear jokes.
Rick’s sermon about Satan control everything and his comments on contraception will doom him in ads.
How is this terrible? I think Newt has much to offer.... He certainly is preferable to Mittens
