“Well, as you know, those delegates had to be filed in Virginia and all the way back in early part of December,” Santorum said. “And, you know, look, I’ll be honest, I mean, I was running across the state of Iowa and, you know, sitting in 2 percent of the national polls, with very, very limited resources, you know, we didn’t have the ability to go out.”

Ineligible for over 20% of the delegates of a very delegate rich state...I believe about 75.

Big deal. If anyone thinks Romney isn’t going to walk with this state that has an open Primary, they are kidding themselves. Rahm will make sure everyone in Chicago votes Milt. They also have a goofy distribution of delegates.

if Santorum wins big in the state next week, he won’t be eligible for all of Alabama’s 47 bound delegates.

Santo has delegate problems all over the US. Voting for him will be useless if he can't get the delegates to back his votes.

How about those Gingrich delegates from Virginia!

Oh, wait... Newt has the same problem.

What a bogus post.

When I ran as an alternate there when Reagan ran. You vote twice. Once for the popular vote, and once for the candidates slate of delegates.

Cheering on willard, yes sir!, Anyone that thinks a state delegation is not going to vote the way the people voted do not now anything about how the game is played. The idea in primaries is to win before the floor vote, dang!!

Pray, pray, and pray some more for a 100% ProLife president - that particular attribute of character is MOST important.

Never underestimate the power of prayer, things can change overnight and they will with enough prayer. If not, we'll end up with Obamney.

Without a return to the founding and supporting Judeo-Christian principles, this nation will fall like ALL other atheistic, pagan, unGodly nations in the world have all throughout the history of the world. What does it take to get through to people? Why do you think God would treat us any different than them? Why do we think God will allow us to kill innocent defenseless little boys and girls and the elderly and the disabled and the too costly, etc, yet condemn all other nations for doing that? Are we really that unbelieving that we think there is no God and no repercussions for our paganism and secularism?

Our nation is in this predicament, because of its loss of morality and yet many Americans, and Freepers alike, still cling to their atheistic socialist secularist stances that brought us to this brink of destruction.

A little hard-headed...thick in the skull...hard in the heart...dense, one can say.

Here's the source to the success of this nation, apparently many need to be reminded: Pray to God, the Father Almighty, for mercy and pray for God's grace to this nation, for the sake of His sorrowful Passion.

Eternal Father, we offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world. Amen.

We must stop turning a blind eye to evil and stop electing those who promote the gravest of evils. He's not going to tolerate it any longer at all.

RNC: Gingrich Leads Santorum in Primary Delegates

Sorry folks, Santorum has turned out to be a ‘default’ candidate, who’s only credit to even still being talked about is the pure lack of confidence the Republican electorate has with this entire field. This is a guy who never seriously took on the task to attain the office of President. Never ready for prime-time.

Once again it's not Santorum's fault. This time it's his volunteers. /s

Virginia? Didn't even submit paperwork. DC? Not on the ballot. Ohio? Lost delegates he earned because of paperwork. TN? He had not a single delegate on the ballot. IL? Similar to Ohio... where else does his campaign have problems?
