You refuse to give any reasons. Just keep repeating the same thing over and over again. Talking to you makes as much sense as doing the “Yes, you did”, “No, I didn’t”, “Yes, you did”, “No, I didn’t”..... (etc ad nauseum) routine.

You say it’s over because you say it’s over, and nothing will break through your circular argument.

Argue with yourself; that’s apparently all you’re willing to listen to anyway.

Simple math.

Newt Gingrich has 140 delegates so far. If he loses 49 more delegates, he is officially mathematically eliminated. To win, he has to win 1004 out of 1053 remaining delegates. That’s 95%. Its over for Newt.

Romney has 656 delegates — and New England hasn’t even voted yet. NY, Penn, RI, Delaware are this week. NY (95 delegates) and Connecticut (28 delegates) become winner-take-all if Romney breaks 50% (which he will). Delaware (17 delegates) is winner take all.

Those three will put Romney at 796 by themselves. Tuesday should put Romney at or above 900 delegates.

After Tuesday, California (WTA, 172 delegates), New Jersey (WTA, 50 delegates) and Utah (WTA, 40 delegates), still won’t have happened. That’s another 262 right there.

Just those winner-take-all States (NY, Conn, Delaware, NJ, CA, Utah) that are sure-thing Romney wins will put Romney at 1058 of 1144. He’ll get more than enough votes in the proportional states to make up the 86 remaining delegates he needs.

Its over because its over. Not magic. Just math. There is no path to victory for Newt, and no way Romney won’t get to 1144.

It’s not over....

Get OUT of our way!

There are plenty of us that see that what we are getting with Obama we are STILL gonna get with Mitt in charge. It just might take longer, maybe...

As for me, I am willing to risk my money and FIGHT for what Newt has planned. Can he do it all? NO, and he has SAID so! Only We The People can get this job done.

So like I said Give up now if you are so inclined but get out of our way!

I can’t say it better than this:
