Unfortunately, that’s best case scenario for Gingrich. Gingrich won’t win NY, Del, Conn, NJ, Cali or Utah. Those are in Romney country. No chance.
Three of those (NY, Del, Conn) will be done by the end of this week. There’s only two people left in the race — which is why Romney will get 50%+ in NY and Conn.
If we assume Gingrich wins the rest (Penn, Missouri, NC, RI, Indiana, W.Virginia, Nebraska, Oregon, Kentucky, Arkansas, Texas, South Dakota, Montana, and Nebraska) ... those are almost all proportional States.
If Romney even takes 25% of the votes there, with the other 75% going to Gingrich, Romney will win in a landslide.
I can’t see Romney not getting to 1144 even under his worst case scenario.

So you’re saying that NY and CT are WTA unless the winner doesn’t get 50% of the vote in those states.
It’s a 3-way race between Gingrich, Ron Paul, and Romney, and Santorum’s name will still be on the ballots as well.
You’re still not counting for the unbound delegates or the proportional delegation for pre-April contests.
Even if Romney had it in the bag I would have to vote against him and would have to encourage others to vote against him. I’ve already said why. “We have to show the world we weren’t all like him.” There is no way in heck I will ever vote for somebody who supports government-coerced abortion when there is somebody in the race who doesn’t. Never. Never, ever, ever.
If enough people will stand on principle there is still hope.
If not, then the country is already mostly dead and I pretty much invite the Lord to deal with this nation as it deserves. He will give those who don’t deserve it the strength to bear up under the same fate as those who do. Actually, those of us who won’t accept the mark of the beast will graciously be executed before the worst hits, most likely. It’s those who want to negotiate with sharia who will have to suffer under it.
