nah - that’s just optimism. No harm no foul. The only path for Newt is to carve into the conservative base. Romney’s been working for 5 or 6 years to get the rino vote and pretty much has that all locked up. Newt has taken a more or less modified McCain tack, trying to remain above the fray and be the last man standing. It might just work for him, too. (hope not, I like the Herminator!)
