But Mitt is the electable candidate, right?

[napscoordinator]

Alot of our FREEPER friend’s heads are exploding. It is going to get even more ugly around here. The smears and negativity towards an honorable, moral, principled man is going to go full bore. Santorum as the front runner is going to get it from here and media.

This is the best news I heard all year!

Santorum has two firsts.

First to win a state in 2012: IOWA

First to win three contests on one night.

This will be good for PR, name visibility, additional endorsements and most importantly contributions which he needs to build up in February to then go and further beat the snot out of Mitty Romney in March. PS when are the next debates, anyone know?? Git out the popcorn.

Just in on CNN: The Colorado GOP Chair says Santorum Wins CO! 78% reporting. El Paso County in CO puts Santorum over the top 1300 margin in this county.

In my local, it was 47 votes for Santo; 21 votes for Gingrich; 14 votes for Romney LoL and RuPaul 9 votes.

Once I saw that El Paso was going to be late reporting after the Denver Metro and Boulder counties already reported, I knew it was over for Romney.

Sen Santorum should be VERY proud. Well done.

[Craftmore]

A month or so ago,I said I would never vote for Romney or Newt.That I would probably vote for Santorum or if he wasnt available,Id vote nobody.People of Freerepublic said Santorum had no chance and Couch Potato Beltway Newt was our only chance.So what is everyone saying now?

[Caipirabob]

Mitt Romney LOST Minnesota and Colorado, states he WON in 2008...

Pack it up, SnippyMcMittCare - GTFO...

[libdestroyer]

Not sure if I like this or not...
On one hand I’d rather have Rick than Mitt. At least Rick is a SOCIAL conservative (not much of a track record when it comes to fiscal conservatism). There isn’t a conservative bone in Mitt’s body.

On the other hand I think it will hurt Gingrich by further splitting the anti-romney vote. This will ultimately help Romney :(
