Mitt Romney didn't just lose. He lost to Muhammad, Jugdish, Sidney, and Clayton—the archetypal losers from Animal House.
The story of Missouri, Minnesota, and Colorado is the stunning weakness of Mitt Romney.
Rick Santorum's impressive victory in the nonbinding Missouri "beauty contest" began an ugly night for Romney. Mitt, who garnered 29 percent in Missouri in 2008, limped in with 25 percent—fewer than half the votes Santorum earned (55 percent).
Then came Minnesota, where Romney lost again. Big time. He won the state four years ago—earning 41 percent, But Tuesday night, he won only 17 percent, for a stunning third-place finish behind Santorum and Ron Paul.
Finally—and perhaps most embarrassingly of all—is Colorado. Romney romped there in 2008 with 60 percent. This year, he limped in with 35 percent and lost to Santorum's 40 percent.
"It was a stunning repudiation of the ostensible frontrunner. Mitt’s super PAC outspent Santorum’s 40 to 1—only to come in third place in Minnesota?"
Fight on, Rick!
I can hardly wait to here Medved spin this one.
The Forehead can go screw himself. He basically called Santorum voters losers in the very first paragraph.
I see all this in a different way: the Republican party is having a very healthy debate about who should replace the Forehead’s hero Obama.
Consider this: was the Forehead calling Hillary a loser when she lost to Obama in the contests four years ago? Was he calling Obama’s voters “losers”? Nope.
Take no comfort when liberal ignoramuses like the Forehead pile on to any of our candidates. The Forehead is a drooling Obama worshipper.

While I don’t like Santorum, or trust him, I’d vote for him over Obama without a doubt. Whereas Romney...nope!
Santorum is at least believably conservative and pro-life. That’s the minimum requirement.
And he has gotten some egg on Romney’s face, which is a good thing :)
Waiter! I’d like a triple helping of schadenfreude.
It’s official, Mitt can’t win in either Dixie or the Midwest.
