Did you happen to notice this little hit piece on Santorum in the same rag?

Santorum comes to a virtual tie in Iowa, and this rag spins it as an anomaly.

It does it’s best to spin Romney winning easily with almost no effort, but doesn’t mention a super-pac spent $3.1 million in one add buy in late 2011. Romney spent more there, and barely eaked out an 8 point victory, and did essentially no better than he did in 2008. That’s kind of a sleazy tactic.

What does your post and link have to do with the score card given to Romney, Santorum, Gingrich and Obama?

I thought I'd point out that Romney "barely eaked[sic] out" a 8 vote victory out of 138,165 cast, which translates into a 0.0057% margin. If there had been a runoff (and there should have been) Santorum would have won easily. As it is, they still split the state's delegates, so Santorum came out fine. =)

I'm optimistic he'll place ahead of Romney in South Carolina, if not win it outright.
