Okay, I’ll bite.
You realize that the poor showings for Santorum have nothing to do with his favorability ratings, but many voters have bought into the false notion that this is a two man race and that Gingrich was the perceived superior candidate due to SC and his debate performances (which went out the window with FL voters after the FL debates).
But here’s a better question for you. Assuming Gingrich got the nomination, explain to me in a state where women will make up 53-55% (FL) of the vote and the political make-up will be somethings like R(36) D(35) I(29), given how poorly Gingrich did with women voters along the I-4 Corridor and South Florida, how does he lower that gap AND avoid getting blown out among Independent and Liberal Women. Sure, Santorum got 8% of the female vote, but it had nothing to do with his favorability. If your answer is that he’ll take Rubio or West, I could counter that Santorum could do exactly the same thing and still be in a better position.
And while Santorum has won only one state, it happens to be a state that the GOP hopes to flip in November. Gingrich, meanwhile, has been blown out by double-digits in what will be considered the battleground states for the General Election (NH, IA, FL). Santorum didn’t spend virtually any money in NH and beat Gingrich. Santorum also didn’t spend virtually anything in FL and still managed to get 230,000 votes.
Lastly, polls show that if Gingrich dropped out, virtually all support would go to Santorum. However if Santorum dropped out, it would split between Romney and Gingrich.
yea right surfer, give it up
You used the same argument you used before, get with it.
You have ignored all what was pointed out, from not even winning any counties to losing every where and in between
give it up surfer
WAKE THE HELL UP BECAUSE YOU ARE REALLY STUPID AFTER HE GOES FOR ROMNEY
nah didn’t think so you had not thought of that
argue for him like a cultist then see him endorse Romney
oh and I also told you to show me the polls where those voters go
Is this it, act like a troll under different names now, sad.

Rick is very much liked. I hear so many callers to radio shows saying how they like him, from small local radio stations to Rush Limbaugh.
As for the debates, Rick did better than Newt, in some of them, particularly the last two, especially when he ripped into Romney about Romneycare.
Not if Santorum dropped out and endorsed Gingrich.
