WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney's struggles in Michigan are fueling speculation that Republicans might have to resort to a doomsday scenario and launch a frantic search for a 2012 savior at their nominating convention in late August....How did Republicans get to this point? Romney's failure to get conservatives fully behind him and put down yet another challenger in the party - this time it's Rick Santorum - is causing angst in the party. Many senior Republicans do not think Santorum, a social conservative caught up in the U.S. culture wars over issues like abortion and contraception, has a chance to beat Obama if he wins the party's presidential nomination. When he ran for re-election as a U.S. senator from Pennsylvania in 2006, Santorum lost by 18 percentage points.... "It's hard for me to see how Romney rights the ship if he loses Michigan," said Republican strategist Matt Mackowiak. "There is no level of spin that can overcome that disaster." Michigan will set the table for "Super Tuesday," the March 6 jackpot when 10 states hold Republican nominating contests. A loss for Romney in Michigan would raise serious doubts over whether he can rally enough support to have a big day on Super Tuesday and make a big move toward clinching the nomination. ....Who would Republicans turn to if not Romney or Santorum? Think of two popular governors, Mitch Daniels of Indiana and Chris Christie of New Jersey, or former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, or even U.S. congressman Paul Ryan, author of a budget plan popular with Republicans....

I will check it out. Does it mention Larry Sinclair? I still believe Larry over Barry. THANKS!!!
Here’s the link about the gay bath house that it is commonly reported that Barack Obama frequented as a State Senator in Chicago. The Video has been removed; thank God. Just read the article. BTW, I still believe Larry Sinclair was telling the truth about his crack smoking & gay sex escapade with Obama in Sinclair’s Limo.
Thanks, LJ !!
Rock on,

Simple.
Because they're scared of her. And, if they don't write about her, she doesn't exist.
Ron Paul is staying in this race for one reason only -- to have a seat at the table come convention time.
He'll have delegates...and he'll sell them to the candidate that offers him the most. Romney, most likely.
It's a real good reason to minimize the Paul vote (except in Virginia).
I am so disgusted by the MSM for not vetting this man...all the while destroying other peoples lives. How do you think Mrs. Cain reacted to all those smears? Exactly why did the other Mrs. Newt get air time on a network news program....Years and years after her divorce?
I'm going to email this article at Hillbuzz to EVERYBODY including the media. I suggest any of you that want to see Mr. Obama defeated this go around do the same. I'm going to have some fun and send it to some very liberal people. There heads will undoubtedly explode that this info is finally getting out. And, that's a nice thought!
YES!!! GO GET ‘EM!!!
