Rick Santorum may have swept all three states Tuesday in the latest Republican presidential contests, but the big winner might have been Democratic President Barack Obama...

I expect nothing less for a loosertarin paper as the O.C. register
Perhaps the OCR writers could pass a message to Barack?
Your laundry list of failures and strategies to undermine America, are all that Rick needs to kick your butt back to Chicago....if not Kenya.
Exactly. The rule is 300 words or 50% if it is a short article

Santorum needs to put his country before his ego and drop out.

“...has yet to win over the conservative core of the party...”
News flash. The onerous Romney has about as much chance of winning over the conservative core as did John Kerry, for much the same reason.
Well, in all fairness, the onerous Romney hasn’t, at least yet, committed open treason.
It was probably never politically expedient for him to do so, naked pragmatism apparently his sole core value.
Anyone that truly believes Obama wants to face anyone other than Romney, who has his own government Health Care plan which will neuter him from addressing Obama’s, has nullified themselves as a credible commentator.
Anyone easily contrasted with Obama, figures heavily in every Obama nightmare related to the November general election.
The more baggage they have, the more Obama relishes a match-up.
It’s just an opinion piece by someone who is speculating
I think that the OC Register is saying that Bammy’s drooling has more to do with perceived “anyone-but-Romney sentiment” among Republican voters than it does with Santorum. He still expects that Romney will win the nomination, only to have a lot of Republicans stay home on election day.

The article says it’s because he’s enjoying the infighting.
I thought it might say that Santorum’s wins lessen the chance of a Gingrich candidacy.
In fact, Zero might have purposely started this whole Santorum surge with his birth control pronunciamento, Gingrich being the one who will give him the toughest challenge.
Landsbaum is a column writer for this newspaper. He does not comment after he posts a piece of the column, therfore you have to click on his newspaper to read the rest.
He has been told before he has to post the whole article, but he doesn’t. He has posted a slew of articles in the last two-three days, commenting on none.
“Here I sit with “The 5” on in the background and I hear the moderates and leftists all agreeing that Obama was the big winner last night.”
The Five should be more aptly called the TWO! Dana Perino is so far into the toilet for Romney, I’m surprised she doesn’t wear water wings to the studio. Then you have that fat turd Marxist Bob Beckel. The only one who has any intellect at all is Greg Gutfeld. Overall, Fox is so far in the tank for Romney that you have to surmise that the word is out from the top. They will be loosing viewers at an ever increasing rate as the election nears.
No, the article doesn't say that. The article speculates that......"The president must be enjoying the Republicans infighting."
The only reason I had the 5 on today was for background noise and there was nothing else on.
A few votes??

If you are going to post a list like this you must be a Romney supporter! No liberals needed here. If you are a Newt supporter trying to tank Santorum, I could post a factual 2 pager that makes your list like child play.
When the dust clears Santorum may be the one to beat Obama. I think he’ll clean up real nice.
If anyone needs to drop out it is Ron Paul, who is in last place and has yet to win a state. Why don't you demand from him to drop out?
GO SANTORUM GO
