Wouldn’t it be easier to help Newt win in the remaining 20 primary states than to form a 3rd party? If Romney loses 54% of the upcoming delegates in the next 20 states then he doesn’t get the magic 1,144 number to secure the nomination. This thing isn’t over unless the voters decide it’s over.
I’ve been posting that on earlier threads all day to disappointed Santorum people, but they all seem to want to give up and throw in with Romney instead. Especially the ones from Pennsylvania. What am I missing here? Why would they even consider that with a conservative still in the race at the point you described?
Anything is possible, but looking at the primaries with any hope at this point is difficult because Romney only needs a small percentage from here on out to arrive at the 1144. Even the conservative states have given him 30% of their votes and now that Santorum is out and Gingrich is out of compaign money there is little to do in the Republican party.
