This article makes no sense at all.

A Santorum surge does not help Romney. Only a Romney surge can help Romney, but I guess simple concepts are sometimes difficult to grasp.

If people would just vote their conscience instead of basing their votes on amateurish political calculations the process as a whole would work out a lot better.

You are 100% correct, sir. And if you want to take votes away from Romney, then you have to out-Romney him by supporting amnesty for illegals, global warming initiatives, and big-government solutions to health care, kind of like what Newt Gingrich is doing.

Yes, they certainly are. Like they were in 2008 when Thompson, Hunter, Romney and Huckabee split the Conservative vote. We wound up with McCain.

Which is exactly what the author is saying. Instead of supporting a candidate who can beat Romney, they are splitting their support for Paul, Santorum, Bachmann and Perry. I'll leave Gingrich out of this just so you might listen.

Then the Moderates and establishment GOP gives the majority of the vote to Romney. If Romney wins Iowa, it will be over for the other states. And you will have undoubtedly participated in that event.
