Well, you and Newt both seem to think that his best states are yet to come. Fine, but so far it isn’t happening. This is not a matter of “having all of the negative scenarios worked out.” It is just a straightforward observation. You say that the nomination is all about delegates but the committed delegates won in the primaries are only bound for the first ballot. Newt is not going to win the nomination on the first ballot. He needs to win some more states in order to have a legitimate claim on the nomination. And if two more Southern states vote and Newt again does no better than third place, then the pro-Newt narrative will be strained to the breaking point.

I know we're on the same side here FRiend, but wow, hopefully Newt doesn't have a lot of your kind of Newtonians behind him. While he fights on, you point out (from your straightforward observation post) all of the reasons he should just give up.

One third of the delegates have been awarded and in politics a week is a lifetime. Much as the mainstream media, the Republican establishment, and Mitt Romney's campaign would like us to believe otherwise, this is far from over. Hell, Breitbart.com hasn't even started vetting Romney yet.

By the way, fellow Newtonian, how are you doing on your contributions to Newt.org to keep Newt in the fight? I'll be making my third contribution tomorrow.

Go Newt!!
