This tells you Newt’s ability to win votes is largest in magnitude, among all the primary candidates.

So maybe the other candidates will just give him their delegates?

Romney sounding robotic, and making those weird faces and head turns as usual. He’s just freaky.

LOL Yeah! But if we all did that we would all be here completely in the dark.

Unless you have your own on scene reporters or lines to the state/county republican offices.

Well, thank you. I get annoyed a bit at times but Fox is so much better than CNN or MSNBC.

I usually watch the two early shows in the morning and they lean way conservative although they do, of course,have liberal guests and panelists.

Did you hear all the chanting from the crowd during Romney’s speech?

USA, USA, USA

We Need Mitt, We Need Mitt, We Need Mitt. (Sounded just like Yes, We Can.)

What was the last word they were chanting over and over? Was it Mitt, Mitt, Mitt, Mitt?

Yep. Romney is a phony. He got slammed GOOD tonight. Keep it up. This FORD/ROCKEFELLER wing of the GOP MUST BE DEFEATED. They are going to do everything but throw the kitchen sink now at his challengers (except Paul). Just watch. You ain’t seen nothing yet. Mitt’s going to really get down and do the nasty....armor up!! (up armor!)

No, that won’t happen.

It’s the other candidates who are pushing back on Newt.

I’m guessing you did not hear the swarms of attack ads put out by the Romney and Newt surrogates against Santorum here in Tennessee. They were all Super PAC ads. Oddly, they sounded as if they were made by the same people.

You do realize Santorum is still the nearest thing to "generic Republican" right? He's the least known, least vetted of any of the candidates.

Look at the lower turn out. The "front runners," Santorum and Romney, are not inspiring primary voters to get to the polls. This portends doom in November.

A Santorum nominee would be destroyed. Look closely at his election history in PA, at how and why he lost by 18 points. It was a larger margin than any incumbent senator in over 25 years. The voters who knew him best--for 12 years--wanted him gone. Democrats know how to destroy him at the ballot box even with the power of incumbency in his corner. He lost 61% of women and even when reelected couldn't win the women's vote. Instead he mirrored W's in 2000 by polling highly with men and in 1994, well, he road Newt's Republican Revolution into the senate.

Since they're both establishment guys, I wonder how Santorum supporters would take a Romney/Santorum ticket.

The scary thing is there are the “true believers” + easily fooled sheeple + all the people that are dependent on the other side.

Lake Erie voters/boaters do not like Ricky. Tried to Pull the plug on free VHF radios broadcasts.

Crap. Ricky!!!!! Stop screwing up. But would they reward Romney of all people because of this.

Gotta agree with you there.

I don’t know the demographic that’s voting for Santorum but he’s appealing to a lot of people.

I’m okay with him, but after I watch Newt give a speech or appear on a talk show I just wish so much that we could have him running against Obama. He would so eat his lunch and not throw him a crumb.

“How about a ceasefire on the anti-Newt and anti-Rick rhetoric here”

Some of us have been wanting a long time. But Politics and Religion can bring out the worst in people.

If Santorum wins OH it will be a very good night for him. Already with wins in TN and OK it is a good night.

Told who? From what was posted when Newt discovered that Brit’s son and Paxon were an item, he outed them both or perhaps I read it wrong. Did he, as speaker, out Barney Frank and others we may not be aware of and is that his role to do so?
