I was a PA resident but did not hear this. That is interesting. Hopefully they at least forgive him today.....just to get rid of Romney.

You’re confusing yourself. Be patient. Let’s use simple numbers.

Each candidate starts with nothing, and then the race begins. They each move according to their own individual strength.

Romney moves up 28, but gets hit with a negative two from Gingrich and negative one from Santorum which puts Romney back at 25.

Santorum takes 40, but Romney hits him with negative seventeen and Gingrich throws a negative one, leaving Santorum at 22.

Meanwhile Gingrich makes it to 50, but Romney comes at him with negative 30 and Santorum with negative five, leaving Gingrich back at 15.

So you see? Newt has the best vote-getting machine of all three candidates. Remember—the ability to get votes is the forward arrow, while dumping cash into negative ads is the opposing vector.

Yeah, thats a bad one allright. Probably pretty strong Romney territory there. Like I said, Ohio is touch and go, I suppose it could go either way.

6% in from Idaho now, with Romney winning in caucuses, over Ron Paul, from LDS-land.

Remember in Iowa, we were waiting for a pickup truck to deliver
votes in some county??

That’s what I feel here in OH.

That one or two counties will report late. Enough to make up any difference.

Not that I’m a conspiracy theorist! :-)

Praise God, I have no TV tonight. I would not have listened to that liar Romney anyway.

No unity for him.

He’s ruined this primary with his lies and smears of his rivals.

His lust for power is insatiable.

Think about it.

Two of Newt’s most popular, patriot, conservative, former rivals both are supporting and campaigning for him:

Governor Rick Perry and Herman Cain!

There is of course a huge Newt contingent here. Which is fine. But they all encouraged each other to vote newt in OH today, which hurt our cause. They could have voted santo to stop Romney, but they didn’t want to. Fine, but if mitt pulls this off, even a few hundred Freepers’ voters could have made a difference. It’s frustrating.

In the end, this election is about fighting the mainstream’s choice for us!!

He also ripped a page out of Rick Perry’s book which was the foreward Newt wrote. (That was a few months back.) Something tells me he needs some therapy.

Ahhh, no. He used the analogy that NO PLACE in the US is safe from a dirty bomb and that our borders need to be secured.

Well, I haven’t given anything else up for Lent and I usually do, so I’ll think about the S word.
