The panel discusses an interview with Newt one day prior to the Florida primary where Gingrich signals his intention to take the fight to the convention.

If Romney beat Newt by a landslide 14 points, Newt OBLITERATED Santorum by an embarassing 20 point spread after being attacked by Romney and the GOP-E for ten days. Rick is delusional.
well... even Reagan lost in 1976 to a moderate insider (Ford) but came back and swept it in 1980. Remember it was at the convention that Reagan made that amazing speech, and everyone suddenly realized that they had made an HUGE mistake by not backing him over the idiot Ford.
I would vote for Newt if he ran 3rd party.
Good. Make RINO heads explode.
I think our best chance is for all candidates to stay in through the convention (Romney can drop out, idc) and result in a brokered convention. I don’t think Newt can handle Mitt 1-on-1 but with Santorum strong in the midwest and Paul in the caucuses we could still get Anyone But Romney.
Me, too.
Yes, rick is delusional. He could not carry his own home state against the dumbest man ever to run for political office. If Santorum were running for student council president, he might have a chance. But, pres of the United States? It ain’t gonna happen. I sure wish he wuld pull out and let romny and Gingrich battle it out on an even field.
Yes, all the way to the convention! Would love nothing better than to see scores of Gingrich delegates booing the sh^t out of Romney lackeys in Tampa.
WHERE does Newt make a stand in February? Arizona is the end of the month; there's almost no debates.
good idea...newt 3rd party! [if necessary].
and Newt blasted past Romney with what 12.4% margin in SC. It ain’t over. 46 more states to go. Go Newt!
Plus Romney’s win percent is shrinking after starting 51-28, a 23 point win is down to 14 with 5 percent yet to report. I think they are holding that last 5 percent because Romneys final win will be down to 45-33 and not look so big in the end.
Check out the polls by state on the RCP page from this video.
Gingrich STILL LEADS ROMNEY in the national polls.
It's going to be a slugfest.
did ya see the guy on Hannity say Rubio isn’t a NBC and Sean laughed at him? OMGoodness . . . Sean is such an idiot. He doesn’t even know what a NBC is. I like Rubio but facts is facts. Even Rubio knows it. That is why he smiles politely when asked about VP spot.
Dems are playing this to the hilt. Supreme Court chastised the 3 judge panel. But they are still obstinate.
When we get to vote (155 delegates) Mitt will get creamed. He can forget about TX and OK. He Will NOT carry the South.
We just need to stress 3 key items:
Obamacare was drafted from Romneycare.
Romney is pro abortion and pro gun control.
George Soros likes Romney
Seems to me Romney went all in and blew 10% of his expected wallet. For one state? For one percent of the delegates?
Quick math for him to win majority delegates would be he needs to spend $1 per vote or there about.
Burn baby! You can only spend so much to get to yes and then you are bankrupt against Obama, who will be able to outspend you 5 or 6 to 1.
Good luck making that work.
From your lips to God’s ears, Texas.
