What Happened Last Night? Photos From The Frontline
>
(Santorum won all three states last night... Minnesota, Missouri and Colorado, swing states, where Republicans sent a clear message to GOP Central: NO LIKE MITT! Voters were uncomfortable with the "I don't care about the very poor" statement and how it combines with the Swiss bank accounts, the Cayman Islands tax havens and the whole stench coming from his Bain career. Romney came in a dismal and distant third in Minnesota with 16.9% of the vote, despite the backing of ex-Governor Tim Pawlenty. Santorum scored 44.8%, Ron Paul 27.2% and the increasingly implausible Newt Gingrich 10.7%. Romney managed to come in second in Colorado-- where had had beaten McCain in 2008-- with 34.9% to Santorum's 40.2%. Missouri was just a glorified straw poll with no meaning or consequence. Santorum took 55% and Romney just 25%. The GOP has a big problem.)

Need proof? Nixon, Reagan, Bush. There's your proof.
I particularly enjoyed chief Romney apologist and head Bush2 Liar Airie Flesher whining last night that the returns were early and don't count Willard out yet.
Isn't them ANY correlation between how WRONG these old Neocons are/WERE and putting them on TV?
I believe that one should be more circumspect in drawing conclusions about the vote in these three states, or any state for that matter, where voter turnout is low. When turnout is low it tends to be the more conservative who vote. One might instead consider the factors for voter disaffection and alienation towards the candidates.
