Santorum folds, Mitt fails to fire with the conservatives...Why do I have the feeling that things are unfolding perfectly according to Newt's devious little master plan? He has everybody exactly where he wants them.
I should mention that the illustration superimposed around the Newtster's head is not an actual king's gambit. That is a chess opening where white offers a pawn to weaken the defender's e pawn. Paul Morphy was a master of this way back in the mid 19th century, only losing
two of the contests where he employed this strategy.
The gambit is one of the oldest openings in chess. Lucena wrote about it as far back as 1497 in the chess journal Salamanca.
