If they had fled Italy would the Romans have followed them? Maybe, but they could have disappeared into foreign countries, linked up with some other nation, etc. Instead they turned south to fight the Romans some more. they could have crossed into Gaul, maybe gone on to Germany or Spain or wherever, and been free. I forget the name of the battle, but the big battle they fought in northern Italy. I've always thought Spartacus made a huge mistake by not crossing the Alps and fleeing Italy.
