It ain’t gonna last, like the case of the Oakland BART station belligerent “victim”, whatever his name, didn’t last. The voters are stupid, but not that stupid. The old alignments will rule, no significant change.

This situation has obtained some serious sponsors. Unfortunately Santorum has chosen sides before the test of facts is complete.
