If the situation were reversed, I would be calling for Santorum supporters to back Gingrich right now in a last-ditch effort to defeat Mitt Romney.

Romney can't be defeated at this point, he can only be "objected to." And I will object to him.

Not long ago I was among those who called for Santorum to quit the race and get behind Newt Gingrich, clearly the better alternative to Mitt Romney.

Santorum dug in, being a principled fellow.

The race kept going Romney's way because the anti-Romney element was divided.

Now Santorum comes to my state, PA, and asks for my vote. He wants me, a Gingrich supporter, to back him strategically, you know, just to hold Romney at bay.

Well, excuse me, but I'm going to vote my principles and vote for Newt Gingrich.

Again, where was Santorum on the principles/practicality meter, going into Florida? That's where I am as Santorum goes into Pennsylvania.

Always said he couldn't beat Romney, now he wants me to waste my vote on him. I'm voting anti-Mitt AND anti-Rick.

No matter how people look at this there’s two ways to go....either voting for Romney or not....reasons at this point really don’t matter....we’ve been had and too many feel backed into a corner that the only way to defeat Obama is now voting for Romney.

I will not do so......I remain in Newt’s court until he says he’s no longer running....and should he do so I will not follow Newt, nor Palin , nor any others who throw their support to Romney. Should he win this Primary...we’ve lost already.
