I don’t know if this is relevant, but I already had it in the chamber and wanted to post it somewhere.

This is march 7, 2012.

Here is a poll from March 10, 1980. Reagan should have dropped out.

ABC-Harris poll, March 10, 1980:
When pitted against President Carter among a cross section of 1,498 likely voters, Ford runs ahead by a 54-44 percent margin. By contrast , among the same voters , Reagan trails Carter by 58-40 percent .

Reagan wasn’t getting 14-15% of the vote. That said, I am not one of those calling for Newt to bow out.

Hope you don’t mind....I just stole that little “factoid” and put it up on my Facebook! Thanks.
