We all assumed this would happen, but now it is official (via UPI)

Apparently Romney said no first, and then Santorum followed. I think Rick should have agreed and then called Romney a wimp.

I would love to see Obama debate these clowns 10 times.

Lol I meant 10 debates between Obama and Romney. The problem is though that winning is based on which candidate a viewer identifies with more. I'll agree with Romney more so I'll think he made better points and the Democrats will think Obama won because they'll agree with him on more things.

Mittens doesn't want to take the risk (and maybe he believes the polls that what remains of Newt's strength would split between him and Rick, so further erosion of Newt would not hurt him), and Rick of course doesn't want to give Newt any oxygen at all; he wants him asphyxiated.

Good point, but I imagine Rick would have said yes if Gingrich had dropped out.

But once Romney said no, Rick lost a chance to make it into an issue that Romney is pussing out

So you want an Obama landslide, then?
