Rick Santorum supporters have a difficult but important choice to make in the next few days as the Florida primary comes up on Tuesday.
Rick Santorum has left Florida. He knows he cannot win Florida. FLorida is the first of the Winner take all states. In other words, Florida is crucial.
Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich are running neck and neck in Florida. By all accounts this race is going to be very close.
The Santorum voters can make the difference.
The Republican establishment is working overtime to make Mitt Romney the nominee. While those of us who support Newt and those who support Rick Santorum may disagree about who is the best candidate, we all agree Mitt Romney is not the candidate. He is a liberal who probably cannot defeat Obama this fall and even if he does, will govern much as Obama did.
If Romney wins Florida, he will be ordained as the Republican nominee and both Gingrich and Santorum will have a very hard time stopping him.
If you are a Rick Santorum supporter, it is time to think strategically. If Romney wins, the race is over for Santorum. If Newt wins, he may or may not be able to continue, but that that is a different story.
If you vote for Rick Santorum in the Florida primary, you are splitting the vote with Newt. Splitting the vote with Newt will guarantee a Romney win.
That we all agree must not happen.
If you support Rick Santorum, use your vote to help stop Mitt Romney in Florida. Whether you agree or disagree with Newt Gingrich, he is close enough to stop Romney with your help.
If you are a Floridian who supports Rick Santorum, I strongly urge you to vote for Newt Gingrich in the Florida Primary. If you know someone who lives in Florida, please urge them to vote for Newt Gingrich.
Let's stop Romney and keep a liberal from becoming the Republican nominee.

Permalink Reply by American Infidel on USAF Debbie, same goes for me! I am not selling out either!! I am happy and proud to be a part of the local leadership of Rick Santorum's campaign here in Florida. Can't wait to see him in Sarasota on Sunday!!
Permalink Reply by American Infidel on Jacqueline, you are correct. Only if the primary process is allowed to work itself out naturally will we end up with the best candidate: Rick Santorum. Unfortunately for Rick's detractors, he is pushing full steam ahead after taking a well-earned ONE DAY off tomorrow.
Permalink Reply by Meredith on Wow. You folks don't get it. There is NO way that Santorum will win the nomination. He lacks delegates in primary states and he doesn't have the funds to go toe to toe with Romney or Gingrich. Rick has some good ideas, but he is not the contender you or any other Santorum supporter are making him out to be. The time to unify is now.
Permalink Reply by Guy on With so many conservatives following your train of thought, that may be true. However, if each of us emailed everyone we know and pitch Rick, then ask them to email everyone they know to pitch Rick, perhaps we can achieve a landslide victory over the progressives than are buying Mitt and Newt.
Permalink Reply by USAF Debbie on Meredith...wow, didn't know you were so omnicient. We're at state #4 in the primary process. Reagan didn't win the nomination until the very end of the primary process.
Want unification?? Then quit belittling my vote. With this attitude you and Judson Phillips have completely driven me from ever voting for Gingrich! I always said I'd vote my values in the primary and for the nominee in the general election. NO WAY I'LL VOTE FOR GINGRICH IN THE GENERAL, EVEN AGAINST OBAMA!! AS A MATTER OF FACT, I'M NOW ON A MISSION TO ENSURE GINGRICH DOESN'T GET THE NOMINATION!! HOW'S THAT FOR UNIFICATION???

Permalink Reply by valerie rhodes on Thank you..read Mona Charen's piece on RINO today at The corner at National Review Online...People who accuse Romney of being a lib and not Newt are either misinformed, or intentionally trying to mislead people. I always get to The Corner by going to Hughhewitt.com and clicking the link on the right. Hugh is a Romeny supporter. Also check out evangelicalsformitt.org.
Permalink Reply by Meredith on Please do Teap Party Nation a favor and read more than one article comparing both candidates. The Corner is in cohoots w/Romney and is writing a biased piece. Romney has changed his stance so many times on so many issues, that you should be concerned about electing him as President.
