Conservative Frontrunner Santorum Wins absolute Majority against Romney (if Gingrich steps aside) !


Popular, young and strong on Values, dynamic Senator Rick Santorum wins, with a large, absolute Majority of Votes, against the Unpopular, old and flip-flop Millionaire Mitt Romney, if Gingrich (who has lost in too many States), at last, steps aside, recent Polls reveal :

F.ex., the Front Runner among Conservatives, Santorum, could crush Romney, with 55 % against only 33 % respectively, if Gingrich stepped aside, i.e. with a Winning margin up to + 21%, according to the latest Luisiana Polls by Magelan Strategies BR, of the 19 of March. Oherwise, (i.e. if Gingrich insists to Divide the Conservatives), Santorum again Wins against Romney there, but with a margin of 13% (37 % - 24%).

Nationwide, Conservatives Santorum and Gingrich already have 1 Million Votes more than Romney (with about 5 Millions against only 4, respectively), added to more than 1 Million also of Paul's.

More than 61 % of Gingrich Voters, when he steps down, prefer to vote for Santorum, while only 22 % would go to Romney, reveal f.ex. the same Polls.

Until now :

- Santorum Won in 10 (Ten) States, while Gingrich only in 2 (two).

- Santorum has got 246 Delegates, compared to only 141 for Gingrich.

- Santorum has won about + 600.000 more Votes than Gingrich.


>>> With Santorum US President, Gingrich could become a good Vice-President, or State Secretary, etc.

=> United together, the Conservatives, (who already are a Majority in Votes : See above), could OBVIOUSLY also WIN the GOP 2012 Presidential Nomination, crushing Romney easily.

On the contrary, if Gingrich insists to Divide the Conservatives, he would be alone to bear the grave Responsibility, if, eventually, a MINORITY candidate, as Romney, might, perhaps, usurpate, at the end, a nomination that he obviously does not deserve, contrary to elementary Democratic Principles.
 
Re: Conservative Frontrunner Santorum Wins Majority against Romney (if Gingrich quits

More than 50% of the voters are women.

No way is Santorum going to win the general election.

It's a long time since you didn't read the News ?

=> Recent (March 19) Polls reval that, in fact, it's much more Women who prefer Santorum to any other among his competitors in the 2012 GOP primary for the US Presidential Election, than Men :

F.ex. Santorum gets + 2% more from Women's Votes, than from Men's, (38% compared to 36%, respectively), in Louisiana, according to Magelan Strategies BR.

Re: Conservative Frontrunner Santorum Wins Majority against Romney (if Gingrich quits

Unfortunately it goes against all the facts on the ground. The Not Romney candidate has popcorned up and down. Mitt has spent millions gaining a real lead over the pack. Rick would have to win, and win big from here on out to have any chance of beating Romney and I don't see him doing more than having a big bunch of delegates for a floor fight. The social 'conservatives' will vote for who ever wins the nomination, they can do nothing else but stay home and pout. THE battle is for moderates and I don't see moderates going along with what Rick is pitching. Even if he uses his etch-a-sketch...

i saw an article this morning when i opened up my web browser from nytimes showing santorum had the conservative female vote on his side.

Link to the Poll perhaps? Those numbers betray almost every other major poll I've seen recently.

He'll have his female supporters to be sure, but not enough to swing an election.

thats where you are wrong,anything is possible,you should have said he likely wont have enough.

but one thing ive noticed is women tend to be more religious than men,hes gotten more women than romney,he just needs to push religion in a religious way and not in a war against contraception and abortion way and he could very well get more female support.

+ Santo can bring in even former Abstentionist Voters, (as GWBush suddenly succeeded to do, surprising everybody in the establishment, back on 2004, when he won a crystal-clear Victory thanks to a last-minute rush of Millions of simple American people strongly Motivated, from the grassroots Popular "Values" Movement) !

Here is the one mentioned above ( http://www.realclearpolitics.com/docs/2012/Magellan_LA_0320B.pdf ), but there are many others, even more recent, going in the same Direction, and even much STRONGER :

F.ex. : http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/2011/PPP_Release_LA_323.pdf : This finds an even Bigger Lead of Santorum's fans among Women : + 3% more ! (with 71% favorable views among Women, compared to 68% among Men)...

That just caught my eye.



Also you assume every Gingrich supporter will turn to Santorum, that is obviously impossible. Even a majority turning to Santorum isn't guaranteed.

I love how he used a picture with Sanitorium's daughter and wife in the background as a reason that women will vote for him...

The number of women in the Republican Party = less than the number of women voters in the general public. So even if he gets EVERY woman voter in the Republican Party, he has alienated independent women, and women in the Democratic Party.

Further, your point about him not getting every Gingrich supporter is accurate. In the polls that I've seen the Gingrich vote get split 50-50, and all it would do would be to push Romney over 50%. Gingrich's support has already dwindled, and Romney's lead in national polls is up to double digits at 40% to 26%, with Gingrich getting around 10% at best. That would make it still a Romney advantage.

Romney keeps piling up the delegates. Even if you think Santorum will be ahead in the popular vote if Gingrich drops out, Sanitarium will need to win 70% of the remaining delegates to get the nomination. If he doesn't (which he wont'), then at the convention he'd need to prove on the convention floor that people who supported Romney should jump ship to him. That's not likely. What's more likely is that Paul, who hates Santorum, would prefer to throw his support behind Romney than Santorum, so at that point Romney would still get the necessary delegates.

Face it... Santorum is just playing the sore loser role right now, and alienating moderates and independents who would help Romney in the general election. Right now, every vote for Santorum = a vote for Obama.
 
Re: Conservative Frontrunner Santorum Wins Majority against Romney (if Gingrich quits

Interesting it is the PPP numbers cited. It is the democratic polling outfit. it is also very biased to use just the Louisiana women to represent ALL women needed to win just the GOP process much less the general election. Santorum took the LA primary with a commanding 42 to 28% margin over Romney, so not sure if that state gives a solid indicator what all GOP women think of the far right. Now other polls show women who voted early favored Santorum more so than those who waited for election day.

I wouldn't read too much into these tea leaves. Cain had them begging for more until they dropped him like a bad habit.
 
Re: Conservative Frontrunner Santorum Wins Majority against Romney (if Gingrich quits

From what I've read, if Gingrich drops out his voters basically split between Romney and Santorum. That would actually allow Romney to close it out sooner rather than later.

Polls and Facts (see f.ex. data published above) prove that more than 61% among Gingrich initial Voters are Ready to go for Santoum, only less than 20% going to Romney.

=> The Conservatives (led by Santorum and including Gingrich) having already a MAJORITY in Votes with more than 5 Millions against only 4 Millions for Romney, then, it's easy to understand that, in fact, Santorum would have Won the GOP Primaries since a long time ago !..

I saw that same thing reported on Fox. Conservative women probably would like Santorum. The key word being "conservative." Conservatives vote for Conservatives, not surprisingly.
 
Re: Conservative Frontrunner Santorum Wins Majority against Romney (if Gingrich quits

Gingrich has to drop out NOW in order for Santorum to have a chance at winning the nomination.

Right, Johnny_rebson. In fact, he should have done so already before (or, at least, immediately after) the "Super Tuesday", as, both us, and many others (including even mainstream Media such as WSJ, etc.), have asked him to do..,

=> Unless it's his ... VOTERS who will "drop out" themselves, as they already started to do f.ex. yesterday in Louisiana (where Gringrich almost .."Disappeared" !)...

If Santorum has that much support among the party base, why isn't he winning more of the primaries? There seems to be a disconnect there somewhere. Moreover, support of the base isn't going to win the general election. Santorum doesn't appeal to the independents and moderates who are the ones who will swing the election one way or another.

Prove is a pretty big word for these sorts of polls. I wonder what Gallup has to say?

(CBS News) Despite conventional wisdom that says Newt Gingrich is siphoning conservative votes from Rick Santorum, a new poll by Gallup finds that both Santorum and Mitt Romney would split Gingrich supporters if the former House speaker dropped out of the race.

Romney, Santorum Tie as Gingrich Voters' Second Choice
