Kind of embarrassing for Romney I’m just sayin...
Losing Michigan would be a death knell to Romney’s campaign.
This is great.
These numbers are within the margin of error, the question begs can he hold onto the lead and or expand it.
I spoke with a seasoned Conservative gent today here in Michigan and he is not sold on Rick and at this point is hoping for a Brokered Convention so someone else will emerge, interesting....
I am for Santorum. Strongly.
I think he is the only guy left who has a chance in the general (though I will support the nominee, and do so strongly).
That said, I am really worried about this line of attack that is clearly developing, namely, that “Santorum wants to ban your contraception”.
I think the American people, especially the beloved independents (the same people that put obama there in the first place) are going to be terrified of this demagogic rhetoric. I am not confident AT ALL that the genius independents will be able to see through this. But that’s what’s coming. Plus, if the D’s manipulate the numbers enough, why, we are likely to see numbers of 7.5% unemployment come next October. If the economy is “on the rebound” according to the news media, and if Santorum has only one agenda and that is to take away everyone’s birth control, then, personally, I don’t see how obama can lose.
I am very, very worried.
I hope someone here at Free Republictherapycentral can make me feel better.
Rick should go all out in Michigan. Newt should do the same in Arizona. Split Romney’s attention, make him lose badly in both states and cause him to “re-evaluate” his campaign.
I know, wishful thinking... but I can dream can’t I?
One thing is clear, Newt is finished. Time to line up behind Santorum.
I can’t believe this is where we are. Rick Santorum?! Ugh.

If Santorum and Newt were smart they would get together and tag team Romney.
In states like Michigan where Santorum is strong and Newt is weak, Newt should step to the side and endorse Santorum.
In Southern states where newt is Strong and Santorum is weak, the opposite should occur.
Keep doing that on a state by state basis with the express goal of denying Romney the win in each and every state. Take it all the way to the convention if need be, or if one of the two starts to pull away (most likely Santorum now) and has a chance of getting the Nom outright, the other should then pull out and back him fully.
I am happy with either Newt or Rick, so the main goal here is not to push one in favor of the other yet but to take Romney out first.
not good for newt either..if sanny gets the mo off beating romney in his state...then it will overtake newt in georgia...and beating both in their homes will make him tough to stop

I can’t believe conservatives actually believe Santorum has any chance against Obama. What a discouraging primary.
jay Leno and David Letterman have been trashing first Bachmann, then Cain, and lately Romney and Newt. There was something similar in their slurs, often repeating the same ones. Yesterday, Bill O'Reilly had a segment on how Soros funded Media Matters provides talking points to NBC, MSNBC, and others. Thus, possibly Leno and Letterman get their attacks on Newt and Romney from MM.
Will Santorum be the next one to be trashed by Leno & Letterman whose attacks on GOP candidates so far have been predictable, similar, repetitious, and unfair. Of course, nothing similar about Obama, nothing about the clown Eric Holder.
The combined totals of those two will beat Romney's total.
Then there will be great hope to have a much more conservative candidate represent the GOP this fall.
If tht is so, and if we can do our part and turn out in overwhelming numbers to defeat Obama ala 2010...we will have great hope of turning things around in our nation.
May God help us make it so.
C’mon non-Romney!!!
Still can’t believe Romney won two southern states. What’s in the water?!!!
