PPP: Santorum beating Romney in Michigan

The end.

Yeah. If Romney can't win Michigan, that's probably the ball game.

You guys realize he is going to firebomb the hell out of Santorum, right?

He can try. But Rick is not Newt. People like Rick. Nuking Newt caused Romney's negatives to skyrocket. He can't afford politically to fire bomb Santorum.

EDIT: What Phil said.

By the way, I didn't really mean it's over. It was said for dramatic purposes and I'm just very excited. I almost got up from dinner and started dancing in the streets of Georgetown.

No. You were right. The GOP establishment did everything within their power to gift wrap the nomination for Mitt. If he can't win Michigan I think they will turn on him and see that if he couldn't win with all of his advantages that he'll have no shot at taking down Obama.

yeah it's nowhere near the ballgame.  it would just mean that we may have to drop the term 'frontrunner' from his name.  he has firewalls in AZ on the 28th and MA/VT/VA on 3/6.

I wouldn't be completely shocked if something weird happened in VT but I agree otherwise.

Also, I have a very hard time seeing Santorum compete with Romney in places like New York and California no matter what happens in MI.

If Carl Paladino can win the NY primary I'm sure Rick Santorum can.

Which is funny because Santorum kinda looks like Rick Lazio.
