The Michigan Republican Party voted to break a delegate tie Wednesday night, awarding 16 delegates to Mitt Romney and 14 to Rick Santorum.
The decision, which broke a 15-15 tie that would have resulted under the pre-primary interpretation of the rules, caused disbelief at Rick Santorum’s campaign. A spokesman rejected the decision.
Even Romney supporters in the Michigan GOP said the decision was unfair to Santorum.
“I have this crazy idea that you follow the rules,” said former Attorney General Mike Cox said after a 4-2 vote by a Michigan GOP credentialing committee, according to the AP. “I’d love to give the at-large delegates to Mitt Romney, but our rules provide for strict apportionment.”

I’m not sure of the timeline but Washington state changed theirs from a primary to a caucus.
Personally, I think they should all be proprtional and we should have 5, 10 state primary dates with 10 regionally diverse states taking part in each one.
I need as many years taken off as possible!! ;-) Best, AiT
Romney is the dirtiest politician I have ever witnessed.
He makes me sick, and will never get my vote.
yep the list just keeps growing, I have never seen anything like it in my entire life.
Romney is rotten to the core.
Romney actually does a pretty good job of hiding his true nature when he isn’t in your state. I really didn’t see the utter filth until it came to Michigan. Last time around I just didn’t care because it was between Romney and McCain.
In the case of Santorum calling for democrats to cross over and vote for him, he just beat Romney at his own game. The GOP leadership in Michigan kept the primary open while we were screaming to close it. Santorum made Robocalls to and invited democrats to vote for him and Romney had people going door to do doing the exact same thing.
The most disgusting thing was when our governor Rick Snyder complained of the dirty tricks of Santorum. Ask any Michigan Freeper how Snyder won and they’ll tell you that it was crossover votes. To make matters worse, despite the “dirty tricks” Snyder still says he’ll work to keep the primaries open.
Oh, now THAT is just downright FREAKY!!!!!! GOOD CATCH!! Send that to Limbaugh, Levin, Savage, the usual suspects. (Although Savage is in the tank for Romney and hates Rick’s guts)....
Thank you for restoring sanity there. ;-)
I am a Newt supporter, and I think Santorum has been cheated. Just as Newt and Santorum have both been cheated out of their Florida delegates.
So glad I’ve been ignoring their phone calls. IF they ever call me again I’m going to give them an earful.
This is why Santorum cannot win.
Just wait until you hear the outrage at FR when the realization sets in that the Establishment Romneyites in TN, IN, IL, et al won’t award Santorum delegates because they are not required to do so (due to his ballot and delegate fielding issues).
Some folks here are going to go ballistic.
“Romney is the dirtiest politician I have ever witnessed.”
One thing that I say to my slobbering Rino Romney friends if they ask what my problem with him is:
“Mitt Romney has NO HONOR”. They get quiet..
This is why I will NEVER vote for Romney. Money talks.
Thanks Credentials Committee! Each little deceitful detail like this just enforces my no vote for Romney. His money doesn’t impress me.

Santorum can give his BFF Michael Moore or the UAW in Michigan. Maybe they can put in a good word for Santorum...
We’d hate to have a single state where the laws and rules were actually obeyed, rather than everyone selling their soul for Romney’s sake.
This is so disgusting. I’m having a hard time even imagining how I could feel more contempt for the R-e than I do right now. Do they have any idea how much the wormy lawlessness grates?
Do they allow write-in candidates for POTUS in the general election?
I know Mike Cox and gets a lot of crap from people, but he's always been a stand up guy, albeit blunt, from the times I've dealt with him.
