F'ckin Santorum.
It is fitting that he's pulling ahead on the backs of a bunch of tv reality star fundy breeders.

Santorum would get trounced against Obama. The man is completely untested and unscathed at this point. I cant imagine the bones in his closet Dems will pull out.

Speaking as an Independent... f'cking Santorum is the kind of idiot 180-degree wrong choice that makes me want to go and pull the lever for Obama. Just to punish the R's for their abject stupidity.

And Romney is the Establishment candidate. Same as both Bushes, same as Clinton, same as Obama. He has proven himself to be the one who will be most loyal to the real power centers.
The Establishment wins. It always wins.

Romney would at least throw less red meat to the conservative base, as he wouldn't need to with the various moderates and anti-dem independents he'd pick up.
Romney is sad, but predictable and pedantic. Santorum is lighter fluid thrown in the face of a burning man.

The funny part is, Iowans somehow think this makes them look MORE sane and relevant than voting for Paul or Romney?

This is a good thing imo. Iowa turned out in droves for Huckabee with the evangelical vote last time, and for Ron Paul to get 21-22% of the vote with Romney and Santorum just a few points ahead really says a lot to me.
It says Paul has a very solid base even among evangelicals ans when you get to some of the less evangelical based states, Paul should thrive.
I'm actually elated.

This is definitely the result of the same people who voted for Huckabee 4 years ago. It would have been interesting to see how his votes would have gone with only Paul/Romney in the race.

My take on the caucus
Romney, Santorum, and Paul took the same amount of delegates .. so this is a 3 way tie. Anyone who says Romney one is showing the ignorance of the political system the lamestream media is hopping for.
Paul doubled his total from 2008 while Romney got less than what he received in 2008.
Iowa delegates are not bound to the person they are assigned to represent and it looks like Dr. Paul's people stayed around and got the necessay county delegate seats

NH is now a 2 man race between Romney and Paul

Interesting tidbit:
Rick Santorum spent $0.73 per vote.
Mitt Romney spent $49.00 per vote.
Rick Perry spent $364.00 per vote (ouch).

Social conservatives are still trying to find a candidate after trying on Bachmann, Perry, Cain and Gingrich. Since they have much less clout in NH, SC and FL I think he'll be fading back into a distant 3rd soon.

Not necessarily, it really depends on who gets the not Romney votes from candidates who fizzle out. Social conservatives don't really get tingly over Paul's Austrian economics and Randian babble, but they do get the spirit in them for Jesus and oppressing non WASPs. I read one op-Ed that suggests that not only has Paul hit his high water mark, but that the Republicn establishment simply can't sell Romney to a large portion of the base. If that is the case Santorum could get legs in SC, eventally dragging Romney to the right.
In which case /popcorn.

The same is true with Paul at this point. No sane person believes he has a chance, but he just might be able to pick up enough delegates to get some bargaining power at the convention.
