(edit). Here's the full email from Hammond.
Three scenarios: 1. Doomsday -- We do poorly in Delaware, Gingrich will keep his campaign schedule in North Carolina but reassess with supporters whether or not there is a path forward.
2. Middle ground --- a razor thin win for Romney in Delaware could show cracks in the armor and coalesce a conservative coalition of supporters behind Newt.
3. Break in the Dam --- A win in Delaware builds financial and grassroots momentum going into North Carolina -- combined with the ABC news report that Winning our Future has $5 million to spend on TV in North Carolina could be the beginning of a chain of wins through DE, NC, KY, WV...then into a battle royal in Texas and California.

Hey, no one is more pissed off at the option of a mitt vs obama election, but, we're not going to have a choice unless we put some one else against him (obama) and you don't accomplish that by beating up on the loser (mitt)
You do it by building the man you want to win.
Negative emotions NEVER make sales, positive ones do!
Think about it this way, to win over people you must create a need, then you propose how to fulfill it.
That, is how you win.
You don't do it by creating the need, then saying the alternative is not the answer.

We’ve heard Newt is dropping out since the beginning. That’s what the left’s wishes. Santorum hasn’t released his delegates, nor threw his support anyone. IF Romney should hit the 1144 mark, my TV will go off until after the damaged has been declared, and I won’t accept one iota of blame. RNC, you did it!!
To: Las Vegas Ron
You're not here to promote Newt, you're here to promote oabama's win against the Mittwit.
What's wrong Ron?
The truth about your lying, left-wing, Progressive Liberal candidate Mitt Romney bother you?
This is just another twist in the damnable lie that if we don't get behind the GOP-E candidate, Romney, we're either voting for Obama or supporting Obama.
It was a Lie when it was first posted on FreeRepublic and it's a lie now.

I also proudly voted for Newt in the NY Primary today as did my husband and my grown son. I know that turnout has been low, which could be a very good thing. Romneybots think he’s got it in the bag................well, as Sammy Davis Junior would say, “that ain’t necessarily so”.
To: Las Vegas Ron
Sure you are, that's why your posting history looks like this:
http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/by:soconpubbie/index?tab=articles
You're not here to promote Newt, you're here to promote oabama's win against the Mittwit.
While we are looking at posting histories Ron, why would a supposed conservative roll over and support the most Progressive Liberal candidate the GOP-E has ever fielded as early as March 27 of this year and give up on both Newt and Rick, when there were more than 50% of the delegates still to be won?
http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/by:Las Vegas Ron/index?tab=articles
And on a conservative website, no less, devoted solely to conservative principles and only to the GOP when the GOP is also pushing Conservative Candidates and principles.
The only trolls around here Ron and those supporting Obama, are those pushing a lying, Left-wing, Progressive Liberal like Mitt Romney on a site whose owner has made it clear that there will be no promotion of Mitt Romney exactly because he is a lying, left-wing, Progressive Liberal.
The only trolls around here Ron and those supporting Obama, are those supporting the only candidate that the only thing inevitable about him is that he is the only candidate guaranteed to give Obama re-election, precisely because of the lying, left-wing, Progressive Liberal record that I and others are continually exposing, you know, that posting history you are whining about.
Obama and the media will utterly destroy your boy Romney using his documented record of lying, left-wing, Progressive Liberal actions/policy positions.
If, God Forbid, he becomes our nominee, the media will use his record like a club up-side his head 24/7 and will literally destroy his candidacy.
To: Las Vegas Ron
See 26, maybe youll get it through your thick skull.
The only ones around here Ron, with thick skulls, are those supporting a lying, left-wing, Progressive Liberal like Mitt Romney on a conservative website devoted to conservative principles and to defeating Mitt Romney, exactly because of those conservative principles.

Idgit, at least learn how to post a link to your imagined "evidence". I will donate 1,000 to FR right now if you can find one post I have ever made here supporting Mitt Romney, if you can't, you donate $1,000.
Got balls troll?

I don't know why Newt allows this discussion to happen on a primary day. I suspect he anticipates (hopes for) scenario 3(above), and he wants to counter Romney's victory speech tonight in NH with a proclamation that the voters are experiencing buyer's remorse with Romney. But, he first needs the vote in Delaware- and I don't see how it helps to have the day's focus on whether or not he will withdraw.
Well, hopefully he'll catch a break.
I'm in, til Newt's out.
RE : "I don't know why Newt allows this discussion to happen on a primary day."
Because the romney campaign, sometimes in conjunction with Santorum supporters, are doing this kind of stuff everywhere, and the grassroots have an added burden of trying to put these kinds of rumors to rest... they are trying to put out the fires - alot of it by Twitter.. they have put some of it to rest well enough.
This is going on everywhere, even in Texas, where many people thought Newt had dropped out based on the romney rumor of Friday night with the MSM complicity...

To: true believer forever
Well, so far, Newt’s doing darn well in Delaware ...only 1% in but he’s at 37% vs Romney 46 ...
Go Newt!!!!!!!!!!!
To: lack-of-trust
Only an idiot would draw any meaningful conclusion from the outcome today.Only an idiot would not see the obvious. That is, Newt was unable to get out the vote in the 5 states holding primaries tonight, even with Santorum out of the race. In fact, Newt is in danger of finishing BEHIND Santorum in a few of these states. Also, Newt is getting crushed in Delaware by a 2-1 margin - the one state he actually had a chance of doing well in tonight.
This puts the lie to those who felt that Santorum was preventing Newt from gaining traction on Romney. Now that Santorum is out of the race, Newt has done even worse and now Romney is being crowned the nominee and giving his victory speech as I type this.
Newt had his opportunity to show us tonight that he was the conservative alternative to Romney and he fell flat on his face. Now we are stuck with Mitt Romney and we must either make the best of the situation or we need to start looking at a third party.
If only Michelle Bachmann stayed in the race. If only Palin got in it. Oh well, we will never know now how Bachmann or Palin would have done. But I could have told you from Day One that Newt was not the answer.

Well how about we start with these:

Las Vegas Ron to mojitojoe
I detest Romney but with him we might have a chance, with obama again it is finito....it's disgusting.
or this one:
Sunday, April 15, 2012 4:33:04 PM · 18 of 33
Las Vegas Ron to Jim Robinson
I think many of those who would choose the lesser evil are trying to buy time to correct a ship that has been long off course, I think they have some validity to their point.
Or how about this one:
Thanks for posting this, Ive never seen it before.
Obama 2012!
And what about your obsession about calling me basically a DU troll or plant?
Or working to re-elect Obama?
On threads where I am posting part of Romney's awful record?
What's that about unless it is defending Romney and working for him?
So posting the truth about a lying, left-wing, Progressive Liberal in your world makes me a troll, right?
Whose values and priorities are whacked?
