Yes, and he has only won one primary.

He will be treated as the winner regardless. He got all the bump from Iowa because the MSM crowned him as the winner.

Then went back to totally ignoring Santorum, like they always do to conservatives in the primaries. Meanwhile we have Newt, no conservative there, being pushed by the GOP.

Conservatives no longer have a home in the GOP. This is looking like a rerun of 2008.

I love the way the media continually uses the “assumptive close” when they talk about Mitt. They want him so badly because they have seen that he is a glass jawed, manufactured champion who will fold like a cheap suit.

They're partly right though, the primaries have been useful in exposing Mitt's weaknesses.

There are many pseudo-conservatives crying with the same argument that we are “weakening” poor Mitt as the campaign gets more heated.

That isn't possible. You can't weaken him if he's the real deal - and he clearly is not.

Another one I have been hearing from pundits in the moderate Murdoch media is that those who are supporting anyone but Romney “are giving ammunition to the Democrats for the 2012 general election!”.

That is quite pathetic for a pundit to show such shallow understanding. They actually think that the Democrat Party isn't going to NOTICE Mitt's weaknesses if WE don't point them out.

When Newt wins, these people need to be reminded again and again where they stood. These are the same type of folks with whom I remember arguing about the imprudence of supporting Charlie Crist and Mark Foley - when everyone KNEW what they were. Publius321 http://www.tableofwisdom.com

So what the hell are they saying? That this entire primary process has been a training exercise to hone romney?
Because if that is what they are implying, I am inferring that we haven’t hit him nearly hard enough yet and we had better get cracking.
