I'll give Mitt 2 weeks to dropout

[CK_John]

The GOP (the 1% who count) will start the search for the real candidate, looking closely at NY.

1. You keep promoting this silly idea

I guess I'll leave you to it, but it is silly.

[CK_John]

8. You really think this circus has been anything but performance art?

[alcibiades_mystery]

16. I promise not to laugh too hard when you're wrong

Carry on.

2. Or, They Might Just Write Off This Election Cycle

and concentrate their efforts on 2014 and 2016.

Rushing Jeb Bush or Chris Christie would be folly at this point.

3. are you the same one who thought Huntsman was going to win the Primary

even after the the results of Iowa, NH, and the polling in SC ?

[CK_John]

9. No.

[onenote]

4. and if that doesn't happen what will you do?

11. Laundry.

5. Nope. A wounded Mittens will go on to lose to The President. nt

6. Mittens won't drop out.

He has waaaay too much money behind him and he's been running for president for years and years. He thinks he's entitled to the nomination and he's not about to let Newt take it from him. He'll amp up the nastiness of the ads and Newt will respond in kind.

It will be classic mutual assured destruction - Slim Pickens riding the bomb all the way to the ground.

7. No, he won't drop out--it's just going to be a longer campaign than he thought.

10. You're entitled to your opinion of course

But do you still think the Republican nominee will be George Pataki or Andrew Cuomo? Because that's pretty far-fetched.

12. I think it is possible and the GOP's only hope.

[RZM]

15. I don't think I'm going to change your mind here

But if the base isn't enthusiastic about Romney or Gingrich, how are they going to get enthusiastic about a Democrat who signed same-sex marriage into law? And why would Cuomo even consider that? It just makes no sense at all to me.

Even if a miracle occurred and Cuomo agreed to do it, you could very well see Obama winning all 50 states. Is that really what they want?

[CK_John]

17. Depends if the Gov wants to wait until 2020 for a chance at running.

I believe 2016 is going to be Sen Gillibrand turn.

Pataki is getting up in the yrs but only minor problems with wife's jobs, but he could be the adult in this race.

13. Newt's gonna give Mitt 2 days to drop out according to what I think he'll say tonight.

[HockeyMom]

14. Wall Streeters will vote for NEWT?

I highly doubt that. lol

[Ilsa]

18. Nope. Not until Kkkarl Rove sayz he can drop out. nt

[Motown_Johnny]

19. Unlikely, he has to much money and his adversaries are all losers

I think he still wins the nomination but is seriously bloodied along the way
