Well, certainly not “all” — but probably 80 or 90%

>> In the end: Santorum voters will turn to NEWT. <<

Disagree. I say ca. 60% would go to Newt, ca. 40% to Romney.

If I’m correct, then Newt’s dropping out would assure a Santo win.

But if Santo should drop out, then it becomes a tight race between Gingrich and Romney — in which case the Romney money machine will again carpet-bomb Newt “back to the stone age.”

Yuk. I can’t talk about other Santorum supporters, but this Santorum supporter would go immediately to Newt if he were to win the nomination or if Santorum dropped out for some reason.
