Santorum should be allowed to contest Romney face to face in SC; Newt is too error-prone despite his excellent debate credentials. Santorum is slow and steady, potentially reliable, compared to the others. Rick Perry though thinks he will sweep SC. We’ll have to wait eleven nights.
The lack of posts here tonight makes me wonder if our people are demoralized and expected pretty much the miserable results we are viewing.
I saw a post about the virginia ballot case today and the more I think about it the more I think Perry is only staying in until that case is decided.
Nothing will be finalized until late Feb/early March as there will be too many delegates outstanding - this will be a long drawn out issue. Mitt isn’t going to get a free ride to the nomination... if for no other reason than Newt won’t let him.
While it would be great to see everyone settle on Newt, Rick, or Rick I don’t think anyone else will drop till after either SC or FL... unless Perry is only waiting for the court thing in VA to drive it through for someone else.
