Still need to stay behind Gingrich in the South, but if Santorum can steal these Midwestern states, we are in good shape as far as preventing Romney from getting a majority of delegates. I don’t think Santorum can win Georgia, MS, AL, LA, TN, or TX so we need Gingrich to hang around and take those. We can let the smoke filled rooms in Tampa decide between Santorum and Gingrich. Frankly, I’d be thrilled with either as opposed to Romney.

You guys need to read this thread about what Ron Paul supporters are doing. They are becoming delegates no matter who wins their caucuses. So they’re saying even though Ron Paul may have got 10% of the vote, they’ve signed up to be 60% of the delegates. That means that if there’s a brokered convention, they can vote for whoever they want to and that will be Ron Paul.

Newt and Rick people need to stay after the caucuses and sign up to be delegates (which means traveling to the state convention, and hopefully being picked to travel to the national convention). That’s the only way to ensure Newt or Rick get the vote in a brokered convention. The buzz seems to be that Ron Paul and Mitt’s people are nearly the only ones becoming delegates.
