Looks like Ohio. Big surprise. Not sure what Gingrich is doing, but it's still obvious he can't go north while Santorum can go south. One thing in Santorum's favor is most of Romney's supporters aren't that enthusiastic to begin with and now they've been told for weeks that Romney is inevitable, so they may not show. Romney should be careful trying to bluff people out of the race by contending he's inevitable, because voters won't show for him if they are convinced of that.

Be careful what you wish for.

Remember that if Newt drops out, EVERY one of his delegates becomes a free agent, free to vote for whomever they want.

The GOP-E and Team Romney will be at the door of every single one of those delegates, promising them influence, jobs, positions, and future support. They will have bottomless wallets, and all of the party machinery to back-up those promises.

In other words, do you really want to wake-up after the IL Primary and see Romney with over 750 committed delegates?

Rick Santorum has said it himself: the key is a brokered convention; neither he nor Newt can get to 1144.

Chicago would NEVER vote for a true conservative. Rino #1 in first; rino #2 in second. Your are talking Obamaland
