George Orwell weeps. Are you SERIOUSLY going to try saying that this race hasn’t been manipulated by the GOP to give us the Lib?

When Rick Santorum inexplicably dropped out of the primary race, the truth of the GOP's manipulation of the nominating contest became as obvious as the nose on your face.

Santorum's sole mission was to take enough votes away from the real conservatives in the race (read: Newt), so that Romney could win with a plurality. It's no wonder that he always had a guilt stricken look on his face.

We conservatives make up 40% of the US population. How can anyone believe that the conservative right actually WANTED the most liberal Republican in the fold to be our nominee? It beggars belief.

Trickery and deception was the only way to get Romney across the finish line first.

Inexplicably?

The man was out of money and had no chance. That's not so inexplicable. Neither was Cain, neither was Perry, nor was Newt when they all dropped out one by one. None of them was a very good candidate and they split the conservative vote big time. Did all of them run in order to set up Romney?

Hey can you set Norm straight and remind him that I actually didn't believe that Palin was for sure going to run.

He needs help with his memory.
