santorum

The Republican primary race was tougher, longer, and more expensive than almost anyone thought. Now that the primary is over, it's time to start the big show.

Yesterday, Republican Presidential candidate Rick Santorum said that the country might as well re-elect Barack Obama if the Republican choice is "etch-a sketch" Mitt Romney. Do you think Santorum really meant what he said, or is he just trying to make a sharp distinction between himself and Romney out of delegate despair?

Over the course of the next twelve hours, ten states will decide who they think best represents the Republican Party. Here are the States in play along with the number of delegates they offer: Georgia (76), Ohio (66), Tennessee (55), Virgina (46), Oklahoma (43), Massachusetts (41), Idaho (32), North Dakota (28), Alaska (24), Vermont (17).

A lot of voters are of the false belief that President Obama has a slim chance of winning in the coming election. I think this feeling is driven by the steady divide in the electorate (now nearly 50/50) between those that approve and disapprove of the President's policies.
