Newt Gingrich: Losing friends and alienating people
If it had happened in February or March, Rick Santorum's withdrawal from the GOP Presidential race would have been great news for Newt Gingrich. I'm not suggesting he would have beat Romney, but he would have had a better shot - particularly in the southern primaries where Romney is least popular. Instead, Santorum's announcement Monday that he's giving up the fight has actually managed to Gingrich look (even more) foolish.
Is there a plausible scenario leading to a Newt comeback?
Unless every poll is wrong, today Newt Gingrich is going to win Georgia . . . and nothing else.
Newt’s last last stand
Because the Republican Party targets its outreach to older voters, a lot of the young whippersnappers out there (a.k.a. people born since 1962) like to snob on the GOP for being culturally out-of-step.
Rick Santorum is the New Newt
While Rick Santorum will never have Newt Gingrich's way with words - I'm sorry, I meant Rick Santorum will literally fundamentally never have Newt Gingrich's transformational way with words - it does look as if Santorum has once again replaced Newt as the GOP's anti-Mitt of the moment.
