And suppose you just tell me here, in open forum, in front of everyone here, how Speaker Newt Gingrich plans to even get his name in nomination at the Convention, when at this time, he is prevented from GOP Convention Rules (established in 2008) from doing it? What is the point in continuing? And (the established fact) that both he and Ron Paul both lack the ability to be put into nomination in Tampa at this point.
The only two GOP candidates at this stage remaining [as of tonight, 20 March 2012 ] who have won enough won primary/caucus states to meet the threshold of having their names actually put into nomination in Tampa so they can be voted for by the delegates assembled are ROMNEY and SANTORUM?
Which states are it that Gingrich will be picking up in the next few weeks to get to that threshold? What about Louisiana where Santorum has a 9 to 10% lead over his challengers (next state up on the docket), and even there, Romney is appearing ahead of Gingrich?
Tell me who the "spoiler" is on this, at the midway point to the nomination.
Conclusion. It is time for Gingrich to leave the race, but if it takes a beating in Louisana then, so be it. Spite against Romney (as disgusting and deserving as Romney is of this), cannot propel the Speaker ad infinitum, as his fundraising imploded from February and March will probably show the same.
No we need a combined conservative effort here and no further splitting of this vote.
