I couldn't get your link to work but I get the sentiment. I think you're right, time for the popcorn and beer. For another angle on why Gingrich may win, check out this story about the waning influence of the religious right from the Washington Post

Things have not gone well generally in this electoral cycle for the once-vaunted movement [Religious Right]. Preferred candidates, particularly Mike Huckabee, didn’t run. The front-runner belongs to a church that some Christian conservatives consider a cult. The one religious conservative remaining in the race, Santorum, has virtually no chance. Michele Bachmann flopped. Rick Perry flamed out — and, upon exiting the race, endorsed Newt Gingrich the same day that the former House speaker was publicly accused by a former wife of seeking an “open marriage.”


Even the movement’s leaders can’t seem to keep their focus — as evidenced by the evangelicals’ three rounds of balloting in Texas.

Santorum called their endorsement “miraculous” — but it barely registered in the polls in South Carolina. For religious conservatives, who in 2008 were forced to accept John McCain (a man who once branded Robertson and Falwell “forces of evil”), it’s shaping up to be another year of compromise and disappointment.

So what does this mean to Gingrich? As far I can tell from taking the pulse of the media, the polls and opinion stories out there it means he's got a real shot because the GOP is badly fractured where typical power brokers are no longer calling the shots. Can he beat Obama? No way. The independent votes will ensure that.

Sorry about that link - I'll try this:

I agree about the GOP being badly fractured. My wife, who comes from Oregon and who has been giggling with glee over the whole FUBAR, thinks that Gingrich's success is the rank and file telling the high command to go screw themselves. It's interesting that with the exception of Dubya (where is he by the way?) ever since 1976 the Republicans have nominated the main runner up (Ronnie in '80, Bush I in '88, Dole in '96, McCain in 2008... interesting. Sad, but interesting.

A vote for Gingrich or Santorum is a wasted vote! Here's why....

The MSM is using Internet polls for the sheep...just like the man behind the curtain in the wizard of oz! No matter what the media wants you to believe, it’s already a two-man race. Of the 2286 total Republican delegates, 1144 are needed to win the nomination. In five states: Virginia, Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee and Illinois - Gingrich and Santorum are not even on the ballot. That’s 564 delegates that they cannot get. After South Carolina, only 59 delegates have been allocated to the four candidates. Mitt Romney has 39 of those. This means Santorum or Gingrich has to pick up 1144 delegates from the remaining 1683.

Dr. Paul is on the ballot in every state so let’s say that Dr. Paul only picks up 20% of the total number of delegates – I happen to believe he will do much better – but let’s pick 20%. That’s 457 delegates for Dr. Paul. Add that to the 564 that Newt and Santorum won’t have a shot at and now there are 1021 delegates that Santorum and Gingrich have no chance of getting. Subtract that 1021 from the total 2286 and you’re left with 1265 delegates. That means that Gingrich and Santorum, one or the other, must pick up over 90% of the available delegates to get the nomination. So, essentially, we’re down to Dr. Paul and Romney.

A vote for Gingrich and Santorum is a wasted vote! A vote for Ron Paul is not a wasted vote and may well mean that the next President of the United States will be a man that, for the last 30 years, has never broken a promise, compromised his principles or waffled his position on an issue. A man that still believes that the Constitution of the United States is THE law of the land and that the protection of our individual liberties is the primary reason for the Federal Government. Dr. Paul does not need to win FL. He only needs to win the caucus states, which overwhelmingly support him.

As much as the media would like us to believe, this race is not over.

RON PAUL 2012!

So the religious right can't find a candidate? How about a pro-life doctor who has been married 54 years? Seems like he'd be right up their alley.

Whatever, I shouldn't have even posted such drivel.

You've posted this on at at least one other threat on ATS. Please don't. Oh and Paul is totally unelectable.

You would think that would be the case. But, the religious right of course has an agenda, of which Dr. Paul must *not* support, hence why they ignore him and voted for a Roman Catholic (Santorum)... which by the way is so out of left field since the Religious Right always votes in a candidate with a protestant-derivative religion.

As for the independents, I can't see them going for Romney. It becomes a race of the lesser of two evils where picking the "known" evil is better than the unknown. Plus, as the economy bounces up a bit (as planned), Obama will have taken the some wind from Romney's sails.
