I was unable to watch the debate, but I’ve perused some of the comments. It’s discouraging to read people who sound every bit as smarmy as the Obots. Hardly a sober pro-Newt comment in the crowd.
Newsflash: Newt will never overcome Romney at this juncture, and if it’s not Rick, it WILL be Mitt! Not my fancy, but that’s reality. Rick is our FINAL hope. Bob
I agree. If Santorum falls, it is over. The Newtbots don’t understand a good chunk of Santorum supporters, who got there after supporting Bachmann and Cain will finally capitulate to Romney.
If Rick is our final hope, we HAVE no hope. Rick bottomed out after Iowa, and there was never much chance that he could carry this sudden momentum for very long. There is every chance Newt could take all that support back from Rick and beat Mitt. Rick’s voters will not go to Mitt. Only 2 of the top 25 conservative states have voted so far. Romney’s map gets worse as this primary goes on. Newt’s SuperPAC is supposed to be getting $10 million more from Adelson, and I think it’s only spent about that much to date. There is still Plan B, where no one gets a majority, but Newt and Rick have enough delegates by then to combine together and beat Romney and Paul.
