I might throw up if Santorum wins three states tonight.

As a Pennsylvanian, it's very hard for me to watch him. We HATED him as Governor and got rid of him. I truly never thought I'd have to look at his gopher-like visage again.

Guess this proves - 'merika really is THAT fucked up… Santorum?!

We have the organization - the passion - the money. But not the votes.

Two wolves and a sheep they say…

Ron is doing surprisingly well in MN. I though he was polling last place? I suppose I shouldn't jump to conclusions with only 13% reporting.

Minnesota Patch: As count rolls in, Ron Paul's percentage climbs steadily upward. He's now at 27.48 percent of the votes. But he's still nowhere close to Rick Santorum's 43.13 percent.


Climbs steadily upward

Second place was essentially statistically tied between Paul, Romney, and Gingrich in the polls.

Fridley Patch: About 100 people are hanging out in the Fridley High auditorium, chatting and waiting for results from all 17 House District 50A precincts to be tallied and announced.

I'm with you on this one. Never thought this corrupt POS would ever get this far.
