See if that momentum continues after all the other states are counted between now and the 24th. Add several million in attack ads, exposing Santorum’s checkered past, and then we will see where all this party hoopla is headed.

Hmmmm. It almost seems like you *want* Romney to beat Santorum. Say it ain't so, Psycho!

[samtheman]

The problem is that I don’t see Santorum winning either. Then what does he do at the brokered convention. If he has more delegates than Romney, than all bets are off. No telling what will happen. But if Romney is the front-runner, but with fewer than he needs to clinch the nomination, I worry that Rick will barter his own delegates for the VP slot on the Romney ticket.

Nope, the Newtster comes in last. Quite a fall from December when he led the pack.

Even more recently than that, too, IIRC... After taking SC, he was at one time cruising along in the low 40s for support and leading everyone by double-digits... then came toxic Mitt's ads in FL, and, aside from GA, he was never the same again.

[Vigilanteman]

Just to add a little trivia, Pennsylvania can also lay claim on Ron Paul as a native son. He grew up not far from me in Pittsburg’s Green Tree area.

NO Newt....... NO win...

I worry that Rick will barter his own delegates for the VP slot on the Romney ticket.

What in particular leads you to worry about this? I'm curious.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Can your pointless rhetoric and personal attacks. I know it is hard for you, but stick to your own limited agenda. Mine is very well documented.

[caww]

You forgot one...

“who’s riding on the wave from the attacks on Newt because he can’t ride on his own wave.”

The democrates are salivating over Santorum and pushing all the buttons to see him in.....note there’s been no ambush agains Santorum to date....but it’s coming...and he’ll go down.

[Antoninus]

Go Rick!



Santorum for President ping. Let me know if you want on or off the list.

You really crack me up.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone with a nastier disposition yet thinner skin.

[smoothsailing]

You make legitimate points. One factor you left out is Gingrich delegates. If the Newtster barters his delegate for the VP slot on a Santorum ticket, then we got something!

[cotton1706]

Romney’s weaker after last night. He’s gaining delegates but so are the othere. If he loses Puerto Rico or Illinois, he’ll be weaker still. He may limp into the convention with the most delegates, but with soft support, he may not win on the first ballot. And then the fun beginss.

Newt was right about Leonard Wood in 1920. He was the favorite and Harding ended up with the nomination and won in a landslide. Harding and Coolidge went on to slash taxes and the national debt and the economy roared.

I'm just curious to see how you guys cover your trashing of Santorum once Newt is out of the race.

[Kenny]

Santorums picking up steam with each primary victory.

And I'm thrilled but I have to say, I don't get it unless God is intervening. I've seen some of the anti-Santorum ads and they are brutal. He's outspent 10 to 1 at a minimum and yet is surviving and thriving in these primaries.

Not doubting God has a part, personally praying around the clock, but Rick's success defies all the campaigns in recent history.

[Norseman]

>>Can your pointless rhetoric and personal attacks.<<

Wow, talk about the pot calling the kettle.....sheesh!

[Kazan]

Where are those repeating the liberal media nonsense that Rick defeat Obama now?

[samtheman]

That would be a good outcome, a Santorum/Gingrich ticket.

I could get behind that.

I would prefer Gingrich/Santorum but it doesn’t look like that one is in the cards.

[Carriage Hill]

You speak the absolute truth, on all counts, c!

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

I could care less what you think. Apparently it bothers you so much that I express my right to an opinion, you have to go out of your way to insult me in order to achieve a reaction. So who really has the thinner skin or nastier disposition?

[Kazan]

The momentum can change in mere hours in the midst of this chaotic primary.

The momentum just shifted to Santorum...
