“I don’t think so it is a good idea”.

Do you think the above sentence is correct? If not, what is the correct form?

Correct:

  1. I don’t think it is a good idea.
  2. They say it is a good idea. I don’t think so.

In “I don’t think so”, ‘so’ refers to something that came up already in speech. Therefore, ‘it is a good idea’ can’t follow that. Often when people say “I don’t think so it is a good idea”, they mean “I don’t think that it is a good idea”.
