Santorum will now get the wilting frontrunner treatment that previous line of no-Romneys received. Good campaigner? He last got voted out office by almost 20%. :D

I am the 20%.  :showoff:  The 2006 Penna. elections were great fun.

South Carolina appears to have an open primary. :hmm:

I'm evidently in their system, but I can't find my voter registration card.  I wonder if I need that?  I'm almost positive I didn't when I voted in the 2010 elections.

I did find an old condom.  Score?

You really should throw those away after you use them.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

No way, the Coney Island whitefish population is seriously endangered.

Iowa isn't everything.  If he cinches South Carolina, he's back in the race.

Or he continues to split the not-Romney vote with Santorum and Gingrich, thus letting Romney skate by with a small plurality. :D

I think there's at least 5 more debates in which he can humiliate himself before South Carolina :)

Romney will take it on the chin in South Carolina.  In fact, most of Teh Souf.  They really don't like him down there.

Well they also have Rick Perry as a fellow Southerner to vote for. Huckabee won a lot of southern states. Luckily for Mitt, a lot of northern states will also be voting when the South votes, so it will balance out.

Which is why he's not bowing out just yet.

Perry's campaign is dead. If someone besides Romney wins southern states it'll be Gingrich.

Yeah but he will smash all before him in the Western States.

Maybe.   I bet many of them don't even know he was a congressmen from the South. He certainly doesn't sound like it.

Murdoch himself looks to be backing Santorum :o

No way.
By the sounds of it.  He's joined Twitter.  His interesting political-ish tweets so far.  From the start of the New Year to this evening:
'Good to see santorum surging in Iowa. Regardless of policies, all debates showed principles, consistency and humility like no other.'
'Great to see alexsalmond Briton of the year. Fellow antiestablishmentarian's Econmist piece equal very good and bs!'
'Can't resist this tweet, but all Iowans think about Rick Santorum. Only candidate with genuine big vision for country.'
'Well, well! Values DO count. Santorum result pretty amazing. Policy very similar to Reagan. Now start to sound like him.'
'Paul too extreme, but right to draw attention toFed. Printing zillions can only cause inflation - the coward's way out of this mess.'
'Can understand OCW resentment of extreme inequalities, but how about fund managers only paying cap gains tax without risking a penny?'

I will open a bottle of champagne when that Aussie piece of shit finally croaks.

It's the universe telling you to vote for Santorum.

I have to wait until March 22 to vote! Sheesh, I'd rather get this over with sooner. Gingrich, or yeah Paul, are the two candidates who talk about changing things pretty heavily in Washington. Gingrich talks a good game of it at times I guess, though I tend to favor Romney so far. And Paul can just go away, too radical, but the fact he wants to change things so much is why he gets so many votes, in Iowa anyway and we'll see where else.
