Something to Celebrate
With very nearly half of the vote, Rick Santorum easily defeated his Republican opponents in the Louisiana GOP Primary. Mitt Romney finished second, more than 20% behind Santorum, with Gingrich back in third, and Paul finishing out of sight in last. This sets the stage for a continuing primary fight, and it’s one that may go all the way to the convention. At this point, it may take a brokered convention to keep Romney out, although the math becomes muddled once you consider all the possible permutations. What’s clear at this stage is that while Romney remains the front-runner in the delegate count, he’s in for a hard road ahead. My thought is: Good! I would prefer a brokered convention at this point, since it seems that it will be the only available method by which we get a nominee who stands a chance of defeating Barack Obama.
Santorum’s campaign released a new ad on Saturday, presenting a dramatic portrayal of the future should Barack Obama be re-elected, but then again, much of it is already true. The ad runs just more than a minute, and it makes the point perfectly clear: Barack Obama must go. The alternative is Obamaville:
