Another one out. Reportedly based on campaign information that he could not win Pennsylvania, although the official campaign talking point is speculated by some to be on the basis of his ailing daughter.
Inside sources say the former Senator is expected to endorse Mitt Romney.

Bankruptcy was for his company (which I think was an LLC). It wasn't a personal bankruptcy.

The company..
The company was also a company that he left almost a year ago. He doesnt have any ties to it, from how I understand.

I think it's great news for the Ron Paul campaign
Over the weekend Ron Paul said "We want Santorum to stay in". So what happened? Nice trap Ron!! Ron Paul's smarter than they are. Notice the Liberal media will now end their love fest over Romney. He's so weak, they're salivating. Bring it on! Ron Paul's campaign is releasing a statement shortly.
is a brokered convention possible now?
even less likely? Will everyone who hated Mittens really back him now?
No, this is NOT good news!
No, this is NOT good news! Unless Gingrich has a revival (which is doubtful) it will be unlikely we can force a brokered convention. If Santorum supporters weren't smart enough to gravitate to Paul yet; they will not now. They are part of the sheeple flock and the sheeple herder (Fox News and talk radio) will ensure they are guided into the Romney flock. The only reason Santorum was doing so good to begin with was because Glenn Beck was pushing him as the next "George Washington" (gagging). Many people here seem to think that the MSM will suddenly change their ways and beging to report of this as a two man race, they are wrong. MSM will continue to completly ignore Paul and act as if he dropped out months ago and declare the primary over...as they have already been doing. You will now hear nothing but calls for Republicans to begin the healing process and start focusing on the real race with Obama. I'm not sure of the way forward from this point, I guess we can hope that everybody thinks it is over and fails to show up at the polls. There is still the third party option.

IMO, the fact is Romney may win (buy) the nomination but he can not win the general election without the support of Ron Paul and his supporters at the balllot box. We must press on until we reach the Convention -- only God knows what will happen between now and August. Ron is now #2!!

I totally agree with Wisdom Strategies - MEMO to the GOP/RNC:
YOU WILL NOT WIN WITHOUT US!
And you're doing NOTHING to attract our votes (I'm not even sure there's anything they CAN do short of nominating Dr. Paul himself).
We should loudly proclaim this message in ALL the remaining caucuses and primaries.
WE WILL NOT SUBMIT.
WE WILL NOT VOTE FOR ROMNEY.
If they don't like it - too bad. They need to understand this as they continue to dismiss Dr. Paul AND US.
PRESIDENT PAUL OR NO ONE AT ALL!!!

Let the State Conventions begin! :-)
Oh, this is it folks. This is what we have been waiting for. Ron Paul and his campaign have been brilliant. Many State Conventions are coming up this month, in May, & June.
Question now is, where will Santorum's delegates go, where will his supporters go, and where will his endorsement eventually go?
I can not wait to start rolling on again.
Gingrich is Done. I truly believe that we can receive the Anti-Romney vote.
We finally have the two man race that we have been waiting for.
Even if the MSM was right about the current delegate count, Mitt Romney could still not win the nomination before May 22nd.
So now, with Santorum out, the Ron Paul Revolution has the opportunity to see some amazing next couple of months ahead.
SO AWESOME!
exactly!
The race is on. Not even half over. Paul's message is growing. These crowds will be seen. Once people tumble to the reality of how fraudulent the mainstream media is in harmony with each other....They might literally run to Paul!
Exposure is key. Use laptops, tablets, iphones to show the crowd videos in comparison to what the national media's narrative is.
We do need to swing this thing our way, and it can happen.
OMG!
Just saw the Santorum news.
People will take a second look at Ron Paul now.

We all know better. Paul may win the popular vote, but he'll not be given the chance because the GOP wants Robo-Mitt instead.

Yes, the MSM will continue to ignore Paul - they're calling it
for Romney as we speak.

Take off the rose colored glasses
Our best chance to keep Romney from gaining 1144 delegates before the Convention was to have as many candidates in the fray as possible. Ask your self, Are Santorum voters more like Romney voters or Paul voters? Hopefully they will gravitate to Gingrich and he will view this as an opportune moment to revitalize his flagging campaign and help to keep Romney's delegate count down.
If not us than who?
Now that there are only 3
Now that there are only 3 candidates left, and one is $4 million in debt and treading water, can the media still completely ignore Ron Paul and get away with it? If Gingrich stops campaigning and the RP media black-out continues, will people finally get mad?
Can't wait to hear what the Santorum supporters do in the Missouri caucus tonight!

Shit I forgot all about the caucus tonight. I was thinking about it this morning, but already forgot. Tonight will be a big tale of the months to come...

I guess all the talking heads saying "Three Remaining Candidates" were just a little premature. B-)

This is the worst news : (
-Almost impossible to have a brokered convention
