Santorum To Leave Florida, About To Drop Out Of GOP Race?

[AhuwaleKaNaneHuna]

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm has anyone told santorum and his money backers just how poorly he does in polls against Obama?


No way moving foward is the majority of the U.S. going to elect such a strict religious/social conservative.

Just not going to happen.

Where would Santorum's supporters go, if he were to drop out?

Confession.

If this Santorum pull out is confirmed, I would say, don't spend a dime more in FLA. Take that $1.4 mil Rev Pac money to caucus states.

Folks,

Put Ron Paul's name in this media article, and we would spend three pages attacking the author for incorrectly reporting that RP may be dropping out. He's not going A N Y W H E R E and just might go all the way to the convention unless Newt promises him something major for an endorsement.

Santorum is basically playing the Middle linebacker shadow position, with Ron Paul as the quarterback on the other end.

if he drops out that is very bad from a perception standpoint. we will be coming in last every contest instead of third. third is now the new last. that sucks, really.

Not really... 3rd would be last is there is a huge margin between 2nd and 3rd.. but if your 3rd by less than 10 points , i would call that a 3 man race..

For those of you dealing with people deciding between Paul and Santorum (what?!?!)... Santorum has several extremely anti-liberty quotes on youtube. If you don't think they'll work, might I suggest the 'Santorum has no chance in the general' approach?

 

[maxxgraphix]

Word from a Santorum worker is that he plans on staying in until Super Tuesday. He like Paul is not spending much $ in FL and will focus on other smaller states. So I don't expect him to drop out yet. But soon I would think.

Where does it say he's dropping out? Rons not in florida either buts not dropping out

If he has the money to go that far it isn't coming from 'backers' but from those opposing others not wanting them (us) to get delegates. He never had fundraising until the media created bump when CNN created that fake surge in Iowa by only polling GOP for a primary where you can register to vote at caucus. The segment with 'conviction' for Santorum is minute.

Hmmm, maybe that is why there is a question mark at the end of the title. Ya think?

Seems to me his supporters would flock to Gingrich.

Let me ask something, is there even 1 person in America who is inspired by Newt Gingrich? I never voted for GW Bush, but I at least kind of understood why people might have liked him. Gingrich? Seems like the poster boy for fatcats and the status quo.

 

[Sola_Fide]

I still think some of his evangelicals, pro-liters and gun rights people will find their way here soon enough despite what crosstabs suggest.

I'm sure they will love to see him described as "Frothy" in every other post. That's really classy on our part.

I have actually read a number of brief comments of 'voters' saying they are deciding between Ron and Santorum. I guess on the pro-life vote since that is the cross over they have.

seriously, guys, cut it out. I have to edit it when I see it. It is against TOS and is NOT going to help us with his supporters looking for an alternate candidate. Besides, the joke is pretty old, don't you think?

 

[alucard13mmfmj]

santorum is going to take a hit for the GOP team. imma miss santorum and his antics.

OR... maybe hes going to campaign in the later states? the caucus states like Ron?

 

[Cabal]

Santorum is a big government, anti-liberty, pro-war, pro-deficit spending republicrat. I can't imagine any of his supporters coming to Ron's side.

 

[Liberty74]

I believe it's 50 down from 100.

This is correct.

you confuse the electorate with people familiar with not only the issues, but the candidates past actions in regard to the issues.
