Polls show Romney will win by a 20 point margin today. If he takes down South Carolina by any reasonable margin, I'd say the primaries are essentially over. The rest of the states will fall in line. That leaves the question of who is going to drop next? I was hoping it would be billionaire playboy and otherwise useless turd Jon Huntsman, but with the help of active campaigning by MSNBC, the Boston Globe (who admitted they would take Obama over Huntsman in the general election), Huntsman now has a shot at placing in the top three in New Hampshire. Paul, Gingrich, Santorum and Perry are certainly not going to drop before SC, and probably not before Florida. Huntsman averages 1.5% of the vote in those two states, so thanks to the liberal media, we are saddled with his sorry ass for another month. My predictions: Perry drops after SC Huntsman drops after Florida Gingrich surges ahead of Santorum Santorum drops later on leaving Gingrich to lose to Romney when all the states are tallied. On election day in November, Obama wins if unemployment is under 7.5%, Romney wins if above, Tea Party GOP takes the Senate and holds the House, leaving a crippled Obama (if he wins). Put your money on the table gentlemen.
It's going to be probably Perry first, then Santorum only because he thinks he's ok after Iowa. After that, probably Huntsman and then Gingrich Khan. I'm predicting Romney and Paul as the last two.
Huntsman is already gone. Paul will stay in no matter what. I agree that Santorum will soon be history, but Gingrich still has a shot. A long shot, but a shot.
