One will note I am being very careful in my comments about Newt Gingrich on this forum, which Jim is kind enough to host for so many years. For starters, you will see, I am not calling him (Gingrich) an "ass". I am not calling him a "liar". I am not calling his supporters "liars." (sic) I am not demeaning Mr Gingrich, a former Speaker of the House, with nicknames like "Little Newt". I am not putting up photoshop pics that make fun of his face or distort it. I am not commenting about hair dye. I am not attacking his supporters. I am exhibiting all due respect whilst positively supporting my candidate Rick Santorum, who had a grand slam tonight and did very well.

I don't need to engage in these low-level, below the belt, juvenile personal attacks and temper tantrums. The high ground suits me just fine.

I have been through the ringer in this 2012 cycle. There has not been a decent night for me in this election cycle until now, (finally!), with my first choice Herman Cain excoriated bitterly and driven from the race before he could get a single delegate--dashing my hopes-- then my next candidate not given his victory in Iowa that he deserved on election night, but instead given to Bishop Romney with all the MSM hoopla of "Momentum" and "Unstoppable" (Boy they sure changed their tune two weeks later when the numbers were adjusted and Rick actually won). From then on, it has been nonstop Newt-Romney, Newt-Romney, Newt-Romney for the last one month (all the while the little engine that could, the underdog, Rick Santorum, plugging away with his heart and soul and family in it 100% on a limited budget and family/health problems).

I accepted those previous Santorum loses or second places and sucked it up. This is, after all, not bean bag, but rather a hot kitchen.

Now it is my turn to have a candidate I support do well on one of these Tuesday nights. And he did. Exceedingly well. And I congratulate him for it.

I will not forget the number of classy Freepers here tonight who said, "I am supporting Gingrich, but way to go Santorum". This to me speaks volumes and conservative fraternal goodwill. We are in a contest, alright, but we don't have to get petty or nasty about it. I challenge anyone to go back to my posts and find something where I have been personal or nasty on Mr. Gingrich or his supporters. Our first enemy number one is MITT ROMNEY. And, after vanquishing him and the RINO establishment, the whole enchilada, Barack Hussein Patrice Lumumba Obongo. I am glad we can find this common ground, and some people here can have big hearts and say "hey, good job Santorum supporters", and not discount the elections, nor insult the voters of Colorado, Missouri and Minnesota who turned out... Thanks again for your kind words tonight.

I have to admit not being crazy about Santorum due to his lack of being a fiscal Conservative. I also found him to be arrogant whiney and snooty in the earlier debates that could be due to nervousness and inexperience.

With that said, I would crawl over glass while taking fire overhead to vote for him against Obama. If Romney wins, I will vote for the Green candidate, much to my chagrin.

Go Rick! Your win tonight is a win for the American People. This is truly a jubilant night. He WILL win Colorado.
