And why? Does not necessarily have to be where they actually will be...

Only Georgia makes sense for Gingrich (unless he wants a head-start on Mississippi or Alabama). Paul should probably go with Virginia, nearby a location that is associated with a Founding Father...

Romney can go with Boston to have a true party, but Columbus would be better to appeal in Ohio, his critical state. Santorum will go to Steubenville that is close to Pittsburgh

I saw that Paul will do his speech in Fargo, while Santorum will go to Steubenville. I don't know where Romney will do, but it's very probably to be in MA or OH.

If I were advising them...

Santourm: Oklahoma - he needs to be somewhere he's going to win...
Romney: Ohio - because it's a state he needs to win to break the narrative that Romney is weak in the rust-belt... MA is a foregone conclusion
Paul: Probably Idaho or North Dakota
Gingrich: Georgia... duh Tongue

Santorum is having his party in Steubenville. You have to have known that though. That's too weird of a random guess.  Tongue

Santorum should go all in and be in Ohio.

Romney should be in Boston and speak the minute they call Mass + Virginia for him, which should be the minute after the polls close (I assume it's the same time?).

This, although maybe Paul should consider Alaska. Too bad he doesn't have the money to do one of those expensive internal polls that are never shared, to help him decide where his best shot is. Granted given the time zones, and presumably some desire to appear on prime time TV, maybe CST North Dakota might be best, unless Paul thinks he is slated for third there. Too bad too for Paul that so many of the roustabouts in the oil patch in ND probably are not registered to vote, although come to think of it, ND has no registration. You just show up and say hi, and vote! At least that is my understanding, unless things have changed. ND is unique in that way I think.

Boston in his home state would be the best place for Romney to be when he is celebrating his monumental victories on Super Tuesday.  But I think Romney should make a victory speech in Boston then fly directly to Cincinatti to thank Ohio personally for his big win there.

Santorum should be in Anchorage, Alaska with Sarah Palin, since she, apparently, is a big Santorum fan, but just hasn't had the guts to endorse him, like her hubby did.

Paul in Boise, Idaho.  He should do well in Idaho.

Gingrich in Atlanta, whre else?

Ohio for both of them.

If Santorum doesn't win Ohio, it becomes only a question of how long until Romney secures the nomination, not a question of will he, so Santorum needs to be in Ohio.

As far as the primaries are concerned, it doesn't matter too much where Romney makes his speech, but Ohio is a must-win swing state for the GOP so he needs as much time there as possible.  Virginia could have been a good choice as it too is a general election worry, but since it will be declared as soon as the polls close, it would only make sense to speak there if he then flies to Ohio for a second speech there later that night.
