I don’t know if you saw this, but there are only two people who can be placed into nomination right now.

Rule #40 from the GOP Convention Rules.

Page 38

(b) Each candidate for nomination for
President of the United States and Vice President of the
United States shall demonstrate the support of a
plurality of the delegates from each of five (5) or more
states, severally, prior to the presentation of the name of
that candidate for nomination.

If the person isn’t in nomination, they are not a choice you have. Rick and Milt have the 5 state pluralities already. It is close to impossible to see where Newt makes up the 3 states needed to qualify. In other words, your choice has been made for you.

Is the brokered convention off the table?
