Really? Looking at it another way you could say it was Newt doing that. After all he has not won a primary yet while Santorum has.
All a matter of perspective.
Thats true. But the difference is that outside Iowa Gingrich polls significantly higher in almost every other state. Certainly the majority of them needed to win delegates.
Take the men themselves out of the picture and say it was Candidate “A” that polled great and one a primary, but was in bad shape in over 45 other states, while Candidate ‘B’ was about to do well in a bigger state, perhaps win it, yet was polling significantly higher than A in the rest.
It would be logical to assume that B would be the better choice to get the win wouldn’t it?
Technically, Santorum has not won a primary. He won a caucus.
Yes, it is. And the perspective is we don't know whether or not we want Santorum to drop out because we're not sure he wouldn't endorse Romney again.
