That’s right, onyx!
Go Newt!!!
The article suggested that Rasmussen dispassionately (neutrally?) discussed the numbers regarding Newt getting out.
Then we read another take on it that says Rasmussen’s ideas are all wet.
I have a problem with a pollster discussing strategies and then taking a side. I believe the best chance for a brokered convention is both candidates cooperating based on which is polling higher in any given state. If Gingrich has a huge lead in Texas, then Santorum should back-channel to his supporters that his best interest is for those supporters to vote Gingrich in Texas. And, if Santorum is up in a particular state, then Gringrich’s supporters should return the favor.
I do think there is some danger of the man with the most delegates having a large say in the eventual nominee, but, if Gingrich and Santorum cooperate, their combined numbers will be evidence that Romney is liked by just 33% of the base. In most states, Romney is having 60-70% vote AGAINST him.
I will not support Romney in the general election.
