I think you're right. I didn't catch all the states as they were talking. It just struck me odd because I thought once it got to super Tuesday Santorum would be done. Looks now like it's not going too happen that way.

Romney is the best prepared of all the candidates.
Even now I don't see anyone beating him for the nomination.

That was a funny story.. 
(Gingrich and the tree)
And with 1% of the votes counted, Santorum is leading with 41% to Romney's 36%. Paul third and Gingrich fourth far behind.
Clearly, it's still early though..

Romney wins Arizona.
Romney taking a 41%-38% lead in Michigan now with 20% of the votes counted.
Romney's margin growing in Michigan. He's going to win and going to win the nomination.
I still think no matter what Romney will be the nominee, but, if Romney wins Michigan tonight (which I think he will), then the race could be over, tonight.
Romney will be the nominee...Santorum is one sick puppy.
Not sure I'd call it excellent just yet. According to that article they just elected a repub governor.
great chance of a pick up for the Dems.
Romney has won Michigan..
bye bye Santorum you sicko...

It's over.. All the other candidates can do now is make noise. Unless some kind of miracle happens next Tuesday.
Good win for Romney. Santorum isn't going away though. He will still win several more states along the way.
The momentum will be with Romney but in the end it could be very close on the delegates. Or even a Santorum win really.
Romney has all the advantages now. Super Tuesday is going to be interesting, but Mitt is the favorite...not that he is going to beat Obama in a general election mind you
Another nail in the GOP coffin:

I got to say Jon Stewarts show has been hilarious lately. His coverage of the bit on last nights primaries were hilarious.
thanks for the heads up. gotta catch that.
That's insane. Just saw him on TV a few days ago on Piers Morgan's show. I'll bet Piers feels like a dick for mocking his appearance now.
Reportedly dead of natural causes though it's Breitbart, so I'd want to see confirmation...
Yeah read that. Not sure how the natural causes thing works when the deceased is only 43. There had to be something wrong, and since he lives in LA, I wouldn't rule prescription drugs and alcohol out.
I imagine drugs, alcohol, and possibly hookers had something to do with it.
Brentwood is right next to my neighborhood. I'm a bit curious now.
Sad for his kids but pleased he's rotting in hell.
hmmm. not sure I can believe this is of 'natural causes'.
perhaps he had agreed some deal to testify and he was silenced..

What an idiotic remark.
Because there's no such thing in hell?
Because he wouldn't have started rotting yet?
It's an idiotic and crass thing to say; you're happy the guy is dead because he has a different political standpoint to you? It's funny how quickly your liberalism is put to one side when it suits you.
It's difficult to feel sympathy for someone who intentionally screwed people over for personal gain. Still, it is sad for anyone to die so young with a family.
Maybe he's happy the guy is dead because he claimed to be a journalist but made a career out of doctoring his footage to paint people HE disagreed with in the worst possible light, ruining peoples' lives, destroying entire organizations for the horrible crime of trying to help poor people vote?
Do you actually know who Andrew Breitbart was or did you just feel this was a great opportunity to to play the scold?
Oh good god. Come on now. He's the Micheal Moore of the right nothing more. Only things he's missing are some shitty movies.
EDIT: I only know a little about Brieitbart. Seems like a right wing bomb thrower.
right then. you are excused.
Exactly. So it means his influence was small if not non existent. And it also means he really only affected libs like you by pissing them off.
