Any logical thinker knows that there are countless dynamics behind the way this Primary season turned out. Newt would have been the nominee by now, had Santorum dropped out before Iowa. Running at or below 2% the entire year while all the other nominees were still in, says a whole lot about the man.

Even after winning Iowa...understandable because it was a caucus state, and he and his family virtually lived there for two years... it would still be Newt if Santorum had dropped out and endorsed him and conservatives had rallied around him as the anti Romney, telling Mitt to take his lying ad millions and shove it.

JCB asked, just name even one state Santorum caused Newt to lose.

So I named two.

It won’t wash to say, oh, I meant name a state Santorum caused Newt to lose to ROMNEY.

But the big picture is so clear, and is what Santorum diehards won’t admit, which is that Newt had the best qualified candidacy against Mitt, but he wasn’t deemed personally perfect enough therefore they jumped to the deemed-more-perfect Santorum, thus damning Newt’s candidacy.

Now neither one of them can get there.

You’ve got that right. Santorum supporters have “selective” memory.
