“Many of the coming primaries are winner-take-all. That means in close elections Gingrich is handing delegates to Romney.”

Actually, per the polls, most Gingrich voters would go to Romney.

Not the polls I've seen, nor does that comport with the primaries Santorum won in which Gingrich did not participate.

Then apparently you haven’t looked at any polls.

At best, Romney gets 40%, while Santorum gets 39%.

At worst, Romney gets 47%.

I think that says a lot about what a loser and a snoozer he is.

America is the loser without Newt. Voters are giving America over to be totally destroyed and that includes you. Pitiful.

Indeed...Romney is a Democrat, and I will not be voting for him...

...Obama graciously thanks you for your support...

I was talking about Romney, I think, being the worst possible candidate.

Even if he getting 6% it is probably better for Newt to stay in.

ESTABLISHMENT GUY

HE has a liberal record and money to advertise against the conservative. He can't advertise what he did to MA. The GOP E is rotten to the core.

Then apparently you haven’t looked at any polls.

Any polls? Equine feces.

Try Fox News March 10 poll. With Gingrich out, Romney goes from +6 to +4 over Santorum. Santorum gains.

Support for Romney is up 5 percentage points since last month’s Fox poll, while Santorum is up 9 points. Gingrich has dropped by 9 points.

[Snip]

If Gingrich were out of the race, his backers mainly say they would go to Santorum, yet the shape of the race would look about the same with Romney maintaining a narrow 4-percentage point edge over Santorum: 43-39 percent.

[Snip]

Majorities of Republicans have a favorable opinion of Santorum (61 percent) and Romney (60 percent), while more have a negative than a positive view of Gingrich and Paul. Source

And that's a pro-Romney Fox News.

Try that kind of unsupported blandishment with me and you will get the same thing, sourced data, every time. I'm pinging Lazlo because I'm sure he has more data for your consideration.

either find something to like about Mitt

That POS? I HATE EVIL!!

Turn the focus to Obama and democrats, where it should’ve been months ago and every single day from now on.

And that is what NEWT has been doing all along while EVIL MITT has been attacking Newt with LIES. That's what EVIL does - LIE! So your focus has not been on NEWT; otherwise, you would know this!

Willard has no idea what the Chicago Democrats in the White House have in store for him.

I do they are the same thugs who stole the election for Bill Brady...

How does every conservative candidate in the suburbs win big including tea party patriot Joe Walsh!!! Kirk won big, yet Quinn won?

I have video footage of union thugs that I had arrested here in Orland Park. But if you remember election night, Brady was leading all night till they "found" votes in the city.

And Bill Brady spent much of his time campaigning in the suburbs because he was a lock south of I-80. It sickens me because that one election changed me into the 3rd District which is Saudi Arabia West.

Dan Lipinski is now my Congressman, he voted against Obamacare but he did it because the rats had enough votes and since his District was overwhelmingly Catholic (before it became an Arab Paradise) he voted NO to Obamacare.

At the end of the day, a RAT is a RAT!!!

Sorry...to betray my principles in this world could mean harsh judgement in the next. No Romney.

Yes, and they were able to lie with impunity because they had so much more money than the Republicans and the media would never call them on their lies.

I saw a mail piece from the Democrats with a 25 year old woman and a 60 year old woman on it. The 25 year old woman says, “a mammogram saved my mother’s life”

And on the inside she says, “If Bill Brady were Governor my mother would be dead now.”

They’re going to lie just as much in the Presidential race, and the national media won’t call them on it.

Is there any rational explanation for why Drudge is acting like Romney’s press agent?

I gave up Drudge for Brietbart, and haven’t missed it.

Why do you think that the establishment gave us McCain and then Romney going up against a known socialist in two elections in a row?

This is all such folly. First of all.....who will actually vote for Romney if he is the Nom? Major voting blocks will avoid him. Obama is in for another 4, most assuredly.
