Mitt Romney (R LOL) ......36% ...7,292 Votes
Ron Paul (R LOL) ............24% ...4,912 Votes
Jon Huntsman (R LOL) ....16% ...3,117 Votes

76% of the vote goes to these men in a Republican primary? Wow.

Folks, we really do need to clean up our nomination process.

It looks like the three candidates that true conservatives were willing to support (Gingrich, Perry, Santorum) is going to end up with about 20% of the vote COMBINED in New Hampshire.

Meanwhile, the three candidates most opposed by true conservatives (Romney, Paul, Huntsman) are going to combine for 80% or more of the total NH vote.

No matter how we spin it, this is a true disaster for the conservative wing of the Republican party. Unless things dramatically turn around in the coming primaries, we are going to be faced with either holding our noses to vote for Romney in the general election or we are going to have to coalesce behind a third party candidate (such as a Sarah Palin).

I am going to spend the rest of the night drinking heavily!
