    Are you kidding me?

    At this stage in the race, a Dem shouldn't be above 40% in SC yet Obama leads both Gingrich and Romney.

    No way in the world Newt drops out. But the establishment will pummel him and chip away until his poll numbers drop.

    Michael Savage Offers Newt Gingrich One Million Dollars To Drop Out Of Race


    Conservative radio host Michael Savage has offered Newt Gingrich $1 million to drop out of the Republican primary race.

    Savage posted the announcement on his website, and will go over the specific terms during his radio show on Monday.

    He wrote that the Republican primary race has come down to two candidates: Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich. He said that Romney was the only candidate capable of beating President Barack Obama in the general election. Therefore, he has offered Gingrich $1 million to "drop out of the presidential race for the sake of the nation."

    Savage, who hosts the third-highest rated radio program in the country, outlined the reasons why he believed Gingrich was incapable of beating Obama. In addition to his marital infidelity, checkered past as Speaker of the House, and involvement with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Savage wrote that Gingrich "will come off badly compared to Obama" during presidential debates. Savage wrote that he will "look like nothing more than what he is: a fat, old, white man."

    In order to claim his prize, Gingrich must drop out of the race within 72-hours. Savage urged Gingrich to "take the money."

    Man, that is bizarre. Just when you think the Republican primaries can't get any weirder, they do.

    The GOP will continue to produce quality debates that shed light on Obama's horrible policies and intentions. It's a win win for the Conservatives. And after Obama's horrible cameo on 60 Minutes last night, it's just a matter of time.

    No problem, I'll remove it.

    I know that sometimes the truth can really hurt.

    "The case for Newt is that he's nothing like that guy who used to be governor of Massachusetts. The case for Romney is very similar."

    Major, do you still think Newt will win over Mitt? What percentages would you put on it? Just curious.
