GOP is already dead. The fact the conservative base is split between Gingrich and Santorum proves that from the get go people did not agree within the tea party base on candidates. it sounds more and more like there will be no coalescing around anyone. A faction of voters will split from voting of the nominee between all four left.
I say that because a core of the Gingrich supporters are all of a sudden against Santorum no matter what. And a core of Santorum supporters won’t back Gingrich or they wouldn’t be for Santorum, of course. And you know about the Paul and Romney backers. Romney people might not vote for the nominee if not him and you know this. These goofs have started appearing on The Blaze attacking Santorum and Gingrich.
Personally, as I’ve said a lot, I was and still like Bachmann. And I was also fine with Cain. But they are over. So ever since they both dropped out I have been bouncing around between Newt and Santorum. But I am with Santorum now for the last month. But the 3rd party option is looking pretty good these days as Romney get more and more delegates. I won’t vote for Romney or Paul.
But I would for Santorum and Gingrich. Both bring good things to the table. Both have some baggage you wouldn’t have gotten with Bachmann or Palin or DeMint. However, I lean Santorum now.
