Newt supporters who haven’t already need to stop claiming to be for “anybody but Romney” cause that’s obviously not the case unless “anybody” is French for “Newt Gingrich”. The conservative “primary within a primary” is over, Santorum has won it. It will be him or it will be Romney.

And I’m not happy at the number of people that are apparently making fun of Santorum for being a social conservative. Last time I checked Newt Gingrich is also a social conservative so it doesn’t really make sense.

It's odd, they prefix their remarks by saying "Rick Santorum is a social conservative, and I applaud that, BUT..." and proceed to insult him by calling him names the left uses to attack social conservatives, like "Saint Rick" and "Rick Sanctimonious", and whining about how he wants to "bring the government into the bedroom". Very odd choice of words from people who "applaud" social conservatism. I usually hear those types of comments from people pushing for abortion and gay marriage.

It would be claiming you're proud to be a free-market conservative but then bashing someone for making money at Bain Capital. Oh wait. They've used that tactic, too.

They question Rick's conservatism? Fine. I question theirs.

Yesterdays results make it clear that the slimy magic underwear wearing cult leader coward from a polygamist family of slimy military service avoiding for generations snake oil salesmen cowards SOB MYTH ROMNEY won't get enough delegates to put him over the top.

We are going to a brokered convention, and the RNC is dead meat.
