I don’t know where you have been the last month, but obviously, it does not include paying attention.
Romney has better than an 80% chance of winning, and considering the remaining states and Romney’s overall poll numbers, it is almost a conclusion.
Our best chance is to force a Brokered Convention, and the only way for that to happen, is to keep Newt in the race, to deny Romney as many delegates as possible.

Show me the math where keeping Newt in the race denies Romney more delegates. With about 800 of the remaining 1,200 delegates subject to winner-take-all rules, the lower-vote-getting conservative is almost guaranteed to play the Ross Perot role in some of those contests.
Check out this analysis showing states where Newt helps Romney. This analysis assumes only 56% of Newt's votes go to Santorum. Alabama and Mississippi are cases in point. Romney would've only got 6-12 delegates in those with Newt out of the race rather than the 23 he did get.
The nomination is decided long before my state votes so whatever happens will have already happened before I even get a vote.
Be that as it may your post comes across as you are bent out of shape over something I said.
Which is interesting because I am not calling for Newt to get out..??? Likewise, if Romney has it locked up, as you have say, I am not against a brokered convenetion.
So, maybe take a breath.
You act like the free world at stake or something?
