Noticed that there wasn't much change in the numbers on Santorum/Obama.

[PanicFire]

Still very close in Ohio.

Ohio
Romney 26.0
Gingrich 21.5
Santorum 20.0
Paul 10.5

Though looking at the polls in the other Super Tuesday states most appear to be heavily favoring Romney.

Too early to count anyone out. But I am leaning Santorum.

I too am leaning that way. Though Paul is also a very viable option. If either one of them can knock Romney/Newt out of the top spot in Ohio, they will get my vote. Right now that appears to be Santorum.

You just gotta love the fact that Santorum wasnt even talked about and no body knew any dirt about him until he became a front runner.

Yeah, you nailed it!

Probably why many good people don't run for office. Could anyone here run for office and have every moment of their life put through dissection by people who don't like you?

If they only spoke to only half of the 10,000 girls I dated in college I would be sunk on day #1

Yup, funny how many Paul supporters are scrambling for reasons to not vote for Santorum now that he's the front runner.

Not so fast to count yourself out, ole Bill Clinton did pretty good.

Santorum simply was not worth bothering with because he was polling at 3% until recently. The funny thing is that he is the absolute last choice of Republican voters as they went through Bachmann, Perry, Cain, Gingrich and now finally Santorum. He sucked 6 months ago and he sucks now.

We have 3 camps of voters in the GOP primary.

Romney voters.

Paul voters.

Lost Republican voters that want anyone but Romney or Paul.

Can you say brokered convention?

GOSH your right!

Let me practice a little right now" <Pointing finger> listen to me and listen to me good, I did not have ______with that woman Ms. (?????). She's a good girl, a good girl but this just didn't happen!

Santorum is experiencing a "baby bump". He became the GOP flavor of the week at the most opportunistic time. His "keep your women home and pregnant" sermon, will wear thin very quickly, when put to the vote against Obama.
