Heat even from the likes of newt gingrich. while santorum says of course he will support whoever the republic nominee is. he is under pressure to get out of the race by the candidate who is leading the race for delegates. mitt romney. the presumptive nominee who says that it s about time for santorum to get out. he is under tremendous pressure from romney aides who have essentially suggested that the only reason santorum is staying in the race confronted with the very steep hill he has to climb is to position himself for 2016. santorum hasn t exactly denied that in fact today when he was asked about t he mentioned ronald reagan who lost the first time in the 70s but came back to win twice in the 80s. jon: gingrich talked about how he thinks this race could end up? yes. surprisingly canada, as a matter of fact. mr. gingrich has been arguing for some time. imingts of himself, santorum and ron paul could deny the nomination to romney. today he acknowledged there is no way that he and ....
Allow a number of arguments to be made by them and to be accepted broadly within the republican party. one of the dirty little secret wes all know is the exit poll results properly are not revealed publicly until the polls close but the campaigns and people in the media know what they are and the romney campaign believes this is setting up a number of arguments that are out there, kind of dore map the, kind of bubbling up every so often are going to be crystallized and put him on a much better glide path to the nomination than he was before today. one of those arguments is that romney is going to have the most delegates by the end, may not have a majority but no one will pass on the total number of delegate, they think that will be a comp peg argument for people, have the most, no one will take it away from him if he has the most, people need to fall in line. second is that santorum hasn t performed, whether at the kproos grass root, a member of congress not on board with romney, the ....
mika too s a snob. she s part of the problem. that rick santorum s talking about. help me, ed. what was all right. i ll just flatly ask you. is there anything wrong with that comment by rick santorum? well, first of all, this is truly a race to the bottom in michigan. santorum hasn t been hurt by romney s negative ads, he s been hurt by himself over the last two weeks. that s clear. this is just nuts. i think what he s trying to do if you if you didn t have a clip in there that what happens i think he quoted a percentage of college students believe less in god or religion after they ve gone to college. that was sort of theme, the title altogether. but rick santorum should know better. he used an example of a plumber. well, today a plumber needs to know how to operate a word processor, high technology, and postgraduate is crucial. and every parent in america ....
A symbolic fight. he s tried to sneak it in. it s hard for mitt romney because people don t know there is a narrative where people don t know what he really believes. i would say, mark, also, there were a lot of conservatives read the wall street journal editorial page basically saying that mitt romney s only chance would be to distance himself from his health care plan in massachusetts. and he hasn t, he s defended it. he says it s not the one size fit all model for the country, but he says it worked in massachusetts. that is not what movement conservatives and free-market conservatives are pushing romney to do. i think there are examples of him not just toeing the line as that line moves further and further to the right. if he were to distance himself, wouldn t people say, look, he ll do anything for political advantage. look, that s a separate issue. i m simply under your argument, every one of these politicians is getting moved to the right. whether principle lies t ....
Why. if santorum loses it, he s going to have to explain how he can go forward. super tuesday is still wide open, the race is wide open, and neither of these candidates is performing particularly well. they re both in a position to start to talk about the economy and national security and real issues. and if they do, they ll be the nominee, i think, at this point. the difference is in previous elections, if one of them lost badly tomorrow, or even close, it s likely the loser would run out of money would have to get out of the race and wither. this is what s different about 2012, you can lose and stay in forever because these super pacs keep fuel for your message. but also because no one has a hold but even still. if someone were winning, even if it wasn t closing, it would make it harder and harder for the person who hasn t been winning to raise dough. and this environment is different. we ll bring in senator dick durbin, scott walker of wisconsin, governor bev perdue, ....
