The race was over after Florida. It was just a matter of time. This article is talking about the critical time of Iowa through Florida.
The tiny GOP primaries in those states were vaporous niche contests. You can claim “states” all you want, but in the primary, unlike the general, “states” mean very different things. Just teeny tiny percentages of the voters in Ohio, Wisconsin, and Michigan even came out. Rick’s shameless pro union sops helped him in those very union thug heavy states. That and the narrow niche he appealed to. Turn out was statistically meaningless.
But people who think that winning certain primaries has anything to do with being able to win those states electorally are just so out of touch with how the process works that I care not to discuss it with them.

Yes, and Santorum won Iowa. Why, if you wanted the conservative to win - did you support Gingrich in South Carolina?
