Most of the Republican counties in Michigan voted for Santorum, not Romney.

I guess Arizona figured that Florida could get away with it...
Didn’t they lose half their delegates for that winner take all? Or was that for going early?

I’m not an expert on it, but it’s my take that every state allows general election write-ins. The exact method will vary from state to state though.
I will have to admit to feeling he absolute contempt you do for the leadership of the party I have been a member of for 43 years.
There simply has to be a better way for Conservatives to get their views listened to and implemented, than the flailing pretenders we have voted into office as Republicans.

The crazy thing is that we’re still seeing the anti Santorum attack ads here in Michigan. They’re made by the restore our future PAC which I believe is a pro Romney group.

Romney's campaign along with the liberal republican establishment tried to steal the Iowa caucus' by stuffing the ballot boxes. They got caught and Santorum won Iowa. Michigan is a much bigger state and stuffing the ballot boxes wasn't enough so now they're simply changing the rules (after the fact) in a continuing attempt to shove their goon down our throats.
Shame on them.
I'm not a Santorum supporter by any stretch of the imagination but I am all for proving the liberal shill Romney defeatable.
Newt or bust.
To: erkelly
I am a Newt supporter, and I think Santorum has been cheated. Just as Newt and Santorum have both been cheated out of their Florida delegates.Agree. It appears that the fix is in, and they are going to cram that slimy snake down our throats. Lord help us.

They lost half for going early. RNC Chair Preibus (probably misspelled) said that they “shouldn’t be punished twice” when interviewed about dividing the delegates. Something tells me had another candidate won FL, The April 1st rule would be enforced.

bump and Arkansas Ping!
How do we make sure something like this doesn't happen in Arkansas, assuming the GOP E hasn't decided the race for us by then.

Call, or write them, expressing your feelings, and get your friends to do the same.
