BTW, I'm still waiting for someone to provide any links that have Santorum or his campaign manager telling Gingrich to quit.

Here's the latest from the campaign:

Senior campaign strategist John Brabender said the key for the campaign going forward will be creating an opportunity to challenge Mitt Romney one-on-one, though Brabender maintained the Santorum campaign would not directly call on Gingrich to drop out of the race.

“We’re never going to call on anybody to get out, but what we are calling is on Tea Party supporters and conservatives is to rally behind the only candidate that has demonstrated over and over again that he’s the one who can compete against Mitt Romney,” Brabender said.

Asking voters to support you and not your opponent is not at all "asking them to drop out" -- it's called beating them.

Seriously, you want want to play games with language instead of just admitting Santorum is demanding Gingrich drop out for him?

Look at what Brabender said. (and it’s not the latest) The operative word in what you quoted and put in bold is “directly”. Oh, but Brabebder said “We’re never going to call on anybody to get out,” as he calls on Gingrich to get out!

Santorum himself was on TV yesterday telling Newt he should drop out. Santorum’s SuperPac guy was telling Newt to drop out. Richard Viguerie, Santorum’s Moral Majority evangelical backer spokesman was telling Newt to drop out.

Charles, I am disapoint.
