It’s looking more like “Not-Romney” as this thing winds out and that is great news. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One of RINO-Rom's 3 "home States" (Michigan) is having a Primary before Super Tuesday. Rick Santorum is taking Mitt on in Michigan (Newt is ducking and concentrating on Arizona. I don't know how Newt thinks he's gonna win if he keeps picking and choosing his State contests.) If Santorum beats Mitt in Michigan, (and he just might) that will be the beginning of the end for RINO-Rom. I was on Facebook this a.m. and all my Michigan friends are going for Santorum or Newt; not one is going for Romney.

Lots of folks in VA, given only two choices on the primary ballot (Romney or Paul) are voting Paul.

To beat Romney, it makes sense if Santorum concentrates on Michigan - where he's stronger - and Newt on Arizona, where he's stronger.

Michigan is Winner-Take-All by Congressional District - so if Mitt won 35% to 34% in every district he would win nearly all the delegates; at-large delegates are split proportionally.

Realistically, (IMO) Newt has no chance to win more than 1 or 2 delegates in Michigan, so he's trying for Arizona which is true winner-take-all.
