Well done, Rick Santorum!! A great come from behind surge and photo finish!! Had it in the bag until the last minute recount of one precinct (and surprise, surprise) just enough Romney votes were found to knock you out of first place by a whopping 8 votes. But a great victory for the base nonetheless!!
And it looks like there may be a few fewer faces in the race for New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida. Can't see Huntsman or Bachmann hanging around much longer, and Perry may also bail. Ron Paul has had his best shot. His spam monkeys will have no further impact on the race as he fades to retirement.
That leaves one liberal and two conservatives. Now that some actual votes are in the bag, it'll become more and more obvious every day that the base is not buying Romney's 11th hour conversion to pro-life conservatism and his numbers will begin falling off. Even with all the millions he spent in Iowa and with the media and the establishment GOP carrying his water, he could barely muster up 25% of the vote. The conservative base and the tea party do not want the unreliable flip-flopping Romney and we are not going to allow him to be shoved down our throats!!
No doubt he'll do ok in New Hampshire where he's concentrating his efforts, but he'll have a bit more of a struggle in conservative South Carolina and Florida. And by then I'm pretty sure we will have decided which conservative to coalesce behind for the remainder of the race and then on to defeating Obama!!
NOBAMA, NO ROMNEY, NO WAY!!
Thank you all very much for making FR the number one conservative site on the net and for your continuing support!!
Rebellion is brewing!!
Okay. I’m dining on butter pecan ice cream. LOL
YUM! I was fast with a grilled cheese!
I love grilled cheese. Someone made one for me once with mayo. It was wonderful!
Wow, just wow, onyx! I love it.
Always with mayo!
Good. I like it too. I am putting more and more trust in God for this election, too, even though I’m not certain He has time for our politics. I just know He has time for goodness against evil and I believe obama and his agenda are evil.
Newt on Hannity right now.
We like the same things. Imagine that. :-)
Night Lady! Rest well!
Thank you! You too. I am the SPAM Queen! I spammed 180 threads today! Wheeeee! More tomorrow...

Night sweet Lady!
obama and his agenda are evil and I don’t believe that they even realize that. We, IMO, have reached a point of absolute evil against our beloved Country. We do need God’s Intervention.
