“Blah blah blah blah ... Surely CA in June will be for Romney. Romney is winning many states that he will immediately forfeit to Obama, including both of his home states of MA and MI.”

Don’t call me Shirley.
The problem with your theory is that most conservatives wouldn’t urinate upon Mitt if he was flat on his face
in the street on fire.

[caww]

tough for my little brain to imagine any of the Paulistas warming up to the R man...so different than what they say they are about.

Well they won't go for SAntorum since Pauls been opposing him right along....and besides he's way to conservative on the social issues for them, so that would never fly.

So Romney would be the middle ground for them

If Romney picks Rand Paul as VP then guaranteed Pauls supporters will gladly run to Romney's arms.

[MulberryDraw]

According to Fox, yes. Now they show Santorum Romney tied in Ohio.

[adingdangdoo]

As Newt is speaking, Ohio appears onscreen as a 38 - 38 tie between Romney and Santorum (16% in)...

[Cato in PA]

Thanks for the good news! I needed that.

On a side note I’m currently at Steubenville OH, where Santorum is scheduled to speak tonight.

Right after they announced Newt’s win in GA, they played “the devil went down to Georgia.”

Lol!

[McGruff]

Newt doesn’t sound like he’s backing down.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Newt shouldn’t back down. He knows the delegate count’s not in yet!!

[Leep]

On the other hand,when I listen to Mr Newt I get the feeling there is a chance we can turn this death ship around.

“Obama and the DemocRATs have amassed a library full of opposition research against Willard - and half of the things they’ll say is probably true! “

You’re so sweet. You give them the benefit of the doubt, good for you. I am a cynic. I don’t believe for one minute any Dem in this country cares about being truthful,,esp with the stakes so high.

[Marcella]

I was waiting for a prediction of delegates and what it meant that I could give credibility to, and yours is it.

We are down to delegate interpretation and strategy. Thanks for posting this and keep it up so we know what’s happening. I’ll send you a Freepmail tomorrow.

[Deo volente]

According to CNN, 42 votes separate Romney and Santorum in Ohio.

[okie01]

I now openly predict that, based on my calculations, Mitt Romney will fall more than 100 delegates short of the 1144 necessary to be the nominee

Then, let's hope that Paul doesn't sniff 100 delegates.

[Right_in_Virginia]

This is a really bad night for Mittens.

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!

[luvie]

They are each at 37.8% now. Pleeeeeeeease, Lord!!!

[Kaosinla]

Hey Cato...have a slice of Di Carlos for me!

[Right_in_Virginia]

Love it! And will pass it on!!

[FreeReign]

Hopefully, Mitt gets denied more and more states tonight (ND, ID, AK, among others), but either way we have dealt a deep blow to the GOP-E. Talk of a brokered convention will now get louder, because folks in the “know” are going to be doing the math.

The GOP-E in TN will pick Santorum's delegates there.

I wonder how they will vote in a brokered convention.
