Get this: I watched the first few mins of GBTV with Beck tonight and he showed Ron Paul, Santorum, and Romney. “One of these 3 people will be our next president. Oh I know. I know. Gingrich is running, but why put him in the mix?”

I noticed that, too.

Then, Beck went on to talk about the importance of this election, free speech, etc. Just plain odd.

Mitt looks and sounds like he knows he had a bad night. Keeps flubbing his speech.

Newt winning GA and Rick winning OK and TN. If Rick wins OH, then game change!

[AGreatPer]

"Romney is such a phony!"

This guy scares me. So flim-flam.
Real change is on the way. Truly original.

Obama would eat him for breakfast in a debate. No need for lunch.

Why do I get the feeling of Romney being a great RoboCop?

[red flanker]

Mitt = Nothing But Pablum

[Rational Thought]

I am keeping my faith. If this Country truly is that far to the Left, then it deserves everything it will get.

[katiedidit1]

Romney spent 10 million in Iowa; he accused Newt of being "luny"; he spent 25 MILLION in Fla and we know about the division of delegates in that state...Newt came in 2nd.

I can just see Coulter and Rove gloating along with the establishment go alongs that "take one for the team"..I am not happy! Now, watch Fox News give him a soaring rating for his speech. Nothing but praise for the chosen one.

Brit's Newt hate is embarrassing

Hume blames Gingrich for the outing his homosexual alcholic, drug addict son Sandy Hume's affair with then Congressman Bill Paxton, NY, when in fact, it was Congressman DICK Armey, TX, who outed him.

I've read that, Hume thinks Newt could have shut up Dick Armey. How so?

[reasonisfaith]

Starting to make sense now?

[jwalsh07]

Must be the new physics where anti-gravity dominates, up is down and fewer votes is better. With Newtonian physics here on Gaia the equal and opposite reaction to the money vectored at Newt (at whatever velocity) is for Newt to get fewer votes.

I'll now remind you that Obama will have a lot of vectors in his quiver and nobody will care about the whining we do about it.

[Leep]

We need Mitt.....to quit

[combat_boots]

Are people noticing whether the voting turnout is light or heavy?

[jennings2004]

That would be a “...used ELECTRIC car...” with a dead battery...:))

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Yup! It is what it is. We have to play the hand we are dealt. Looks like we are about to see long season ahead!

[Happy Rain]

No need to yell FRiend. I'm just saying it's just fine if Newt stays in cuz Santorum can beat Mitt and win the nomination without his support.

[jwalsh07]

I saw it, Newt was good.

[Notary Sojac]

Twenty minutes of the usual vapid platitudes from Mitt. I was waiting for him to hug a puppy while reciting the pledge of allegiance.

[Pinkbell]

In Ohio, Romney has attacked Santorum and outspent him either 4 or 5 to 1.

[dfwgator]

Texas has to be Newt Country, now.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

I’m actually IN Pa, and there was a lot more incumbency backlash in that 18 point loss. PA NOW has a Republican Governor, House and State Senate. The “T” is growing larger...Santorum CAN take on Obama—two issues RS has been solid on—pro life (Obama was/is to the LEFT of NARAL) and the mid east (RS was warning of Jihadists before 9/11). He can take on BuhRock

[Girlene]

LOL.

Latest in Ohio - 38% to 36% with 59% reporting.
