Gingrich was unelectable from the get-go. He needed to have bowed out after being crushed in FL.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. So when Santorum had only 7 delegates and Newt had 23, Newt should've gotten out?

Poppycock.

Santorum should've gotten out after Newt won SC. That's where the race for a non-Romney nominee was lost.

Absolutely right. To beat Romney we had to unite early. Right after SC was the ideal time. But Santorum never cared about principles and didn't see the importance of stepping aside when the moment was ripe.

And so now we're getting Romney. And Rick thinks he's getting a VP spot. But I don't think he's right about that.
