Santorum for President ping. Let me know if you want on or off the list.
Top 10 Reasons why Conservatives should support Santorum
Democrat Presidential Candidate Darcy Richardson
Support Uncommitted in Iowa Caucuses

“I’ve been encouraging my supporters in Iowa to join with the Occupy Iowa and Healthcare Not Warfare organizations in sending the strongest possible message to the Obama administration,” Richardson told the listening audience. Supporting an uncommitted slate in Iowa gives progressives the best chance to make their voices heard because of the unique procedural rules employed by Iowa Democrats. Even then, he cautioned, it’s still entirely possible that the Iowa Democratic Party will refuse to report any results indicating opposition to President Obama’s renomination.
Occupy’s Iowa options: Ron Paul or Uncommitted

“Our goal has been to sign people up to go to the Democratic caucuses as uncommitted delegates that are pushing to get our troops out of Afghanistan within 12 months of Obama’s reelection and for Medicare for all during his second term.”
...And then there’s the Occupy Wall Street supporters who want to vote for Ron Paul.
Radio Host Calls on Dems to Cast Uncommitted Caucus Vote

Fallon, who also hosts a progressive talk radio show in Des Moines, is an Occupy activist. He said some progressives are not happy with President Obama.
“I think if a strong showing of people came through as uncommitted, he might start paying attention to the people who feel left behind,” Fallon said.
The last time the percentage of uncommitted ballots took first place was in 1976. Then presidential hopeful Jimmy Carter won 27 percent but 37 percent voted uncommitted.
Romney 23
Santorum 22
Newt 18
Paul 17
Perry 16
Rest - Who Cares
(Yes, I think in the end, Newt bests Ron Paul, as most of Paul’s supporters will stay home and suck on their bongs.)
Not sure about Newt since he has a habit of saying stuff nobody wants to hear. Also not sure about Perry since he has a habit of saying stuff that only late night comics like. Not sure about Paul since he has a habit of saying stuff only Islamists like. But for sure the say anything to win Romney will make it to S.C. Will the Red Necks in S.C. will treat him as well as the Yankees up north? Turn in next week to fine out.
Romney ?
Paul ?
Perry ?
Newt ?
Santorum ?
Bachmann ?
Huntsman ?
the +40% of undecided caucus voters will win the election. Even if half of them don't show.
The losers will be the idiot pollsters/pundits who didn't talk about the undecided until the last few days when they had to. Every election, they cheerlead for the left/who buys the ads, then change their story at the last minute to look objective.
It will be interesting how the rests are spun. I can easily see where 3 or 4 candidates may be with one or two percent of each other. A candidate may come in 5th but only 4 pts from second place.
Makes perfect sense. Paul is a liberal just like they are, and has no business even running in a Republican caucus.
Just heard a radio news item that said as of this morning, 40% of those questioned in Iowa still had not made up their mind who they would caucus for.
Maybe the candidates should have campaigned there 24/7, 7 days a week, starting 2 years ago in order to get the undecided vote down to 35%.
I’m still undecided.
So I’ll have to go along with the consensus here on FR....
It will more likely be
1. Santorum
2. Paul
2. Willard
4. Newt but not too far back from Paul & Willard
5. Perry dropping out Wed morn
6. Michele dropping out Wed morn
P.S. If Willard the Pandering Lib or Paul the Racist Wackjob come in 1st, IA becomes a joke to all true conservatives and Tea party supporters in SC AND FL.
"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures."

NO RINOmney!
There’s no predicting this one.
Many pollsters will have red faces tomorrow.
Obama isn’t watching, hell, only one state out of 57.....
Dunno about any forecasts, but you may have a bead on Momentum Santorum.... The good Senator might just Win. Santorum not my 1st choice, but he is a decent fellow.
I am so glad the actual voting is getting underway, or at least the semi-actual voting in this case. I’ll bet Iowans will be glad come tomorrow morning, when media move out and they can live in peace again.
