Mucho bad news, Romney is beating Newt and Santorum combined. I won’t be giving any advice on whom to vote for today but if Romney wins Ohio he’ll be the nomineee.

Gullible and hood-winked GOP voters provide landslide for the Grand-Daddy of Obamacare.

Too late. I shouldn’t be surprised. The contraception thing was the Left’s way burying Santorum and Rush unwittingly finished him off with the “slut” comment.

Let’s face it, Mitt wins unless one of the others gets out. That’s the reality.

Gee, who saw this coming?

Oh that’s right, I DID, right after the Feb 22 debate. Mariner and the other Santorum bashes still won’t face the obvious truth I placed before them over a week ago.

I tried to warn you people what would happen if Santorum fell. All this talk of a Gingrich rise that has still yet to occur and never will. Because as you can clearly see, many of Santorum’s supporters, who were previously on board with Bachmann, Cain, and Perry are giving up. They’ve had it. Every candidate they support gets trashed not only by the MSM, but by even so-called conservative websites, such as FR.

So if Romney cruises to the nomination and the “rebellion” dies, look no further than the activities here by the vicious posters that did everything in their power to topple the leading Anti-Romney’s, allowing Romney to divide and conquer.

Romney should have been finished on Feb 8. But pride kept people from doing what needed to be done to win the war. And now that pride will destroy them.

If “this” was the goal of the “rebellion”, then Congratulations.

Whoever is behind Wednesday, be it Rick or Newt, absolutely MUST step aside and endorse the other or it will be too late!

Santorum may be losing support, but I think Newt is finished at this point. The attack ads and debate gaffes were just too much for him to handle.

If I had to pick someone to support, I would reluctantly vote for Santorum unless Newt was in the lead in my state.

“...he will still trail Romney in delegates, and possibly Gingrich as well.”

Too bad, Rick. We hardly knew ya’.

Now, moving on to the only Lib-Slayer among these three noise makers,Newt. Go get ‘em, General. The galactically stupid need a tutorial.

I'm not sure how you stop him even if Gingrich or Santorum gets out.

A lot of Newt's supporters are hard core conservative men who won't vote for Romney under any circumstances and see Santorum as socialist because of a handful of pro-union votes.

A lot of Santroum's supporters are pro-life family values women who won't vote for Gingrich under any circumstances because of his schlong control problems in the past.

Just a week ago, I was optimistic that both camps could agree on Santorum and pull some of the Romney crowd with them. Now, not so much.

I'm not ready to throw in the towel just yet, but it isn't looking good.

I am a Santorum supporter and even if he has a big lead on Newt but Newt absolutely refuses to step aside—I would want Rick to step aside.

Otherwise it's Mitt and then Obama has another four years to finish destroying freedom in America.

Whoever steps aside to stop Romney will be a national hero of Audie Murphy proportions—and if neither do and Mitt wins may they both be damned a traitors forever.

I know. Hey, it would be a nice surprise if a different result is realized but most of us here have followed these nomination contests for years...the writing’s on the wall. Debacle.

Well said RitaOK ...at least lets hope it's just “galactically” and not “genetically!”

Take care,

I did my part in Oh. I voted Santorum today to deny Romney a victory. It is now out of my hands.

I'm proud to have done my part to undermine Santorum and Bachmann. I believe neither is qualified for the office.

I supported Cain and Perry and Gingrich.

Santorum has the chance to stop romney. He’s a solid conservative.

Newt doesnt have that chance. So Free Republic’s pushing newt votes will assist getting us Romney.
