One “bush” posed simply theoretically, by onename, was that in a worse case scenario, to not vote on the presidential ballot.

My point is to hold the line and stay with our friendly competition between the three conservative candidates, between Newt, Santorum and Perry, leaving the Establishment to continue their current panic that Ron Paul is definitly gaining on Romney.

Let them be forced (soon) to join forces with us, and dump Romney, or stay their course with Romney and risk Paul getting a pleurality and a brokered convention. See how they like Paul pressing their banish button. They will come to us is my bet, if they want to survive.

I don’t advocate the no-vote; I said it wouldn’t work; it sends no message. With Perot we had something like 22%.

Hold the line, for sure. No point in doing much until after FL.

Paul can’t gain but a few points, mostly at Romney’s expense.

Perry and Gingrich as nouveau sons of the south can gain a little more; Santorum has some evangelical backing, though.

It’s kinda like grasshoppers eating each other’s face off, now.

Gingrich could surface with some momentum.

We’ll check back after Florida, FRiend. Respect your opinion and looking forward to comparing notes!
