This was one of the states where it was actually HELPFUL to ahve two conservatives

I thought if the winner got more than 50%, the candidate got all the delegates. If so, this is situation where Newt helped Romney gain delegates.

No. Loiusiana does not have a winner-take-all provision. They do proportional delegates for every candidate who gets over 25%.

(Worse Loiusiana doesn’t actually bind delegates, and the primary only “morally obligates” a small number of delegates, with the rest done at some meeting in June).
