If not now, when ?

So for me, yes for both of them.

I'd say from a tactical standpoint, Gingrich is the only one that needs to drop out. Paul supporters are not going to support any other candidate.

From a logical standpoint, they both need to drop out as neither are going to win and they can keep their pledged delegates and decide how to use them come convention time.

Paul has nothing to lose, and has a chance of taking the nomination or changing the platform with his ninjas. Newt has nothing. Newt should (but wont) drop out.

Yes, they are the Romney enablers at this point.

I don't see it. Why should either of these guys drop out? For both of them it's their last act in politics, Gingrich is making a lot of money off this cycle and Ron Paul is spreading a message. They have nothing to lose. Neither should be an option.

Neither should. I'd love to see a Brokered Convention.

Are you guys really sure that you want Newt to drop out?  



Anyway, I changed my mind. It's time for Newt to go. Smiley Of course, he won't be going anywhere.

Only Newt really. Ron Paul won't win, but he has other reasons for being in the race as well. Newt is basically still in because he's too stubborn to quit; there is not a path for him.

Both. Though I'd love to see a brokered convention since we're going to lose November at this point.

Paul supporters won't likely back another candidate, but he's already sleeping with Mitt so I don't see the point.
