Report: Santorum to "reassess" campaign

[Likely Voter]

I knew he'd pull a Bachmann. Say he's not dropping out on election night, then drop out a day or two later.

Does anyone have a theory on why candidates do this? It seems so pointless.

Firstly it is hard to let go. Also, they may feel obligated to be optimistic with their supporters at their election night event. It is easier to drop out later at a press conference.

I suspect he will drop out before NH. He is broke and there are no more kiddie table debates.
