To win you've got to carry your party's voting base plus rip off a faction from the other major party.

Again, you've got to carry your own party's voting base FIRST.

Romney seemed poised to rip off a couple of Democrat factions ~ but not the Republican party voting base. He seemed to be stuck at something nearer 23% than not.

That's not a winner, and frankly, I cannot trust the political acumen of those who imagine that kind of candidate should head up the Republican ticket this Fall.

Here in Virginia all of our Republican "big dogs" (or was that "big Republican dogs") imagined that they would be in Hog Heaven by wheeling and dealing with Mitt. They even greased the skids for him and froze all the regular Republicans and Conservatives from the primary list. We have no one to vote for.

I just heard the first reports in had Newt getting most of the votes with the first 10% of the precincts counted.

Sounds to me like people are more concerned with national security, freedom, jobs and the basics.
