Perry is at 6% in the new Rasmussen poll, up only one point from the previous Rasmussen poll.
Both Ricks need to get out NOW to stop the Mittwitt madness. He needs to be stopped now in South Carolina before he has a chance to win SC & use that momentum to take Florida.
You know what? You and all the other ‘drop out’ people need to drop out.
Nothing has been decided yet. Only a tiny fraction of delegates have been won by anyone.
Rick Santorum doesn’t need to drop out, although he’s not my candidate.
Newt doesn’t need to drop out.
And Rick Perry doesn’t need to drop out.
We need to let things play out and see who emerges as a genuine favorite.
If you’re depending on your rivals to drop out, that’s kinda like depending on the opposing team to forfeit so you can win.
You need to win by winning.
Newt would certainly be the strongest candidate to compete in the South against Romney, but will he be able to stop Romney in the vote rich midwest states? I do, however agree, that whatever happens in SC two of the three remaining conservative candidates need to bow out and support the survivor. It may be too late if Romney wins SC by another vote split, but a win in FL will at least give conservatives a glimmer of hope.
