Go Newt!!!
Have you asked that this is in the sidebar? Didn’t see it there, but maybe I wasn’t looking in the right place.
As a Missourian, I voted for Rick Santorum. I would have voted for Rick Perry if he were still in the race. Gingrich, for some reason, wasn’t on the ballot and NO WAY was I going to vote for Romney!
For those interested
Thank God this will be over soon and the robo-calls will cease for a little while. I got calls from Romney’s wife and the Denver Broncos, over and over and over and over... Made me want to puke.....
I’m going now to vote in the straw poll...
from CNN Political Ticker blog:
8:00 p.m. ET - @stevebruskCNN: Gingrich to Wolf Blitzer: “at the rate we’re going you could have the first open convention since 1940”

Good to see Notromney Notpaul winning so far.
As a long-time supporter of Rick Santorum (ya’ll don’t laugh at my Rick Santorum sweater vest when it comes in), I’m anxious and optimistic. I decided long ago not to hold my nose this election cycle. I have been very proud of Rick.
As a side issue, some have been upset at Rick for his attacks on Gingrich. From reading some threads, some may get the idea that he has gone out of his way to single out Newt for criticism. Such is not the case. His primary target has been Romney. (Remember that it was Rick that devastated Romney on RomneyCare in the debates.)
No one has been more forceful than Rick in attacking Romney. For some delicious ads from Santorum attacking Romney, see the two following jewels:

Go Rick!
At my local caucus in MN Ron Paul took 14 votes, Santorum took 11, Romney took 4 and Gingrich took 4. Voted four Santorum.

Poor Willard
..hehe
Santorum rolling....
The RINOs forgot all about him, while attacking Newt.
Ooops.
Go Rick!!
Wouldn’t you know it? Drudge has “Republican Beauty Contest” splashed across the front of his site.
Well, Matt, in this beauty contest, your boy Mitt seems to be an ugly duckling.
Just back from my caucus in the heart of conservative Minnesota—Chanhassen. Big turnout. Results from my precinct: Santorum 19, Paul 15, Romney 11, Newt 7.
Santorum just won Missouri!!!! This is exciting! He will be coming out to talk soon. Minnesota and Colorado are next (hopefully). They are wondering if any of the other candidates are going to call him....can you believe it has gotten that bad that the press is asking such a question.
Santorum - 18 (~38%)
Gingrich - 13 (~28%)
Romney - 12 (~26%)
Paul - 4 (~9%)
One gentleman who was there said attendance was up by a factor of 8 over 2004...
;>)
I just got home from our MN caucus. Here are the results of our caucus straw poll:
Santorum—17
Paul—9
Gingrich—8
Romney—6
We also voted on resolutions to the MN Rep. platform— all of them passed, including adding the right to keep and bear arms; support of Israel as our ally; and specific language against adapting any type of Sharia law or allowing such to supersede the US Constitution.
WOO HOO—Romney was DEAD last! :^D
I bet $10,000 that FOX News declares Romney
the winner no matter what the outcome.
Just made another donation to the Newt campaign. GO NEWT GO!
The Romney SMEAR MACHINE will gear up tonight
to attack Mr. Santorum.
Romney is the MOST VICIOUS backstabber I have
seen in my lifetime.
