I will hand you that. Bachmann was on the field with the Tea Party. I am dejected that Bachmann stayed silent after she got out, even after Santorum got out. Then Santorum joined Bachman in leaving Newt twisting.

That silence along with many others of course, was just the heavy lifting Romney needed, after already slaying Newt in Florida. They stayed silent even then on his tactics in Florida.

“Stalking horses” may be just the word I’m looking for.

Yeah right. Newt collapsed behind Paul last Tuesday because he didn't get an endorsement from Santorum. Whatever gets you through the day.

Santorum didn’t endorse Romney. That was pretty good restraint, given how Newt Gingrich cost Santorum the small possibility that we could actually beat Romney. It’s not like Gingrich dropped out and endorsed Santorum when Santorum was beating Romney. At least Santorum dropped out and gave Gingrich a clear field — maybe just to prove that Gingrich couldn’t beat Romney one-on-one.

My point is that it is rediculous to attack Santorum in a thread about Bachmann endorsing Romney after Gingrich suspends his campaign.
