Santorum just does not have what it takes to take him to Tampa. One, he's not a natural when giving speeches, In fact he is a bore. And Obama will slaughter him in the debates. Has Santorum won any of the GOP debates? The only one’s he was even noticed in, is the first two or three when he got snarky.
As much as most of us would like it, I don't see Newt breaking out either. Unless maybe his picks up former Santorum supporters, but with Santorum running second, that may happen too late to do Newt any good.
LOL! Just ask the Santo fanatics, accoding to them, he slaughtered Newt and Romney in most all of the debates.
We can hope that between santo and Newt, they can keep Romney away from that magic number.
