No real surprise there.

Do Gingrich and Paul even mathematically have a chance at the nomination? Its pretty obvious for both of them that their policies have been soundly rejected by the voters.

Hmm looks like Paul may get second. Piss off, Santorum.

Second third or fourth really doesnt mean anything if Romney keeps winning at this point.

I know, I just don't like Santorum.

The only people who like Santorum are the ultra religious people in the party, which is about 25-30% of voting republicans last time I checked.

They don't have a real chance at winning the first vote for at the convention. If they can prevent Romney from winning with the first vote the delegations are free (as I understand it) and then it is a whole new game...

Can Santorum / Gingrich / Doctor Earmark stop Romney? I doubt it but at least it is interesting.

You know, it's not really as impressive a win as it COULD HAVE BEEN. This just shows how tentative the conservative base is about Mitt . . . .

He is a Mormon, not a Christian, according to the neo-religio-bagger-cons. His current struggle is not with the Jack Kemp style conservatives it is with the new religious right posing as a bagger movement.

I have heard and read exactly zero instances of evangelical republicans being at all hesitant about his being Mormon.

Every mention of the right-wing wacko religious nuts not wanting him because he "isn't christian" has been from the left.

I have to wonder if the 'I'm a Mormon' ads I've been seeing are to help him campaign, though. Timing is awfully suspect...

I'm not sure willful ignorance leads to bliss but you are welcome to try.

Are there any published examples of it? I'd welcome a reference.

Robert Jeffress

R. Philip Roberts

Google either name.

It's not as if folks in general are going to come right out and say, "I'm not voting for him/her because he/she is a Jew/Mormon/Negro/Asian/Gay" but you get the jist from patterns of speech and behavior if you want to.

I miss Jack Kemp. Reagan would get past these primaries - too moderate.

I'm not sure if you are aware but those that tend to win the states tend to win the most delegates...

The media assumes the delegates are going to vote for the winner, but they can vote for anyone they want

The delegates almost always vote for whomever either wins their state and or caucus location unless they get to the convention and its obvious whom is going to win to show solidarity. Its not like Gingrich or Paul is going to get 10% of the delegates in the primaries and they are all the sudden going to change their minds. There would be voter rebellion.
