Why is it a must win. Y’all know there is no such thing.
I guess I should know that a must win for someone else is an omen that Romney is going to win the state by hook or crook. Literally.
There is a kernel of truth here, there usually is even with the main line press. Rick really can not afford to get further behind. If he loses here, then it becomes really difficult to see hime get the delegates he needs. It is already and up hill battle. And even if Rick can force a contested convention, he has little or no chance of getting the nomination. He could maybe force his way onto the ticket as V.P. That would be the worse case senerio for those of us who want to win in November. Rick is an incredibly weak general election candidate, but would be much worse as V.P. candidate. It is doubtful that he would be able to deliver even his home state. Rick is at best a second tier candidate with some upside. He will not be President, and that most likely is a good thing.
Yes, full disclosure, I am a Newt supporter. I do not enjoy saying these things about Rick Santorum, and I will support and vote for him if I have to. I pray I don’t have to. I pray everyday.
Go Newt.
