Colorado was supposed to be a Romney state. Until last night, that is. Contender Rick Santorum came from the East to unseat Romney as he campaigned in Nevada, ignoring the Colorado supporters that gave him victory here in 2008. Santorum swept three midwestern states, leaving Romney to count on his faithful supporters in Arizona (strong LDS support) and Michigan (land of his father). He may win there, but Santorum has changed the Republican race once again.
Perhaps the most surprising shock of the evening was the lackluster performance by Ron Paul. He seemed to have strong support in Ft. Collins when he spoke there recently, and certainly has the name recognition. He did not fare as well as Gingrich. The Santorum vote was clearly a difference-maker, and Colorado may be viewed as a swing state, depending on how the race moves from here. Of course the results are non-binding in a straw poll, but it does make for interesting news as a more conservative candidate than Romney and Gingrich takes tonight's stage. Did his appearance here change things? Who knows?
Santorum is the most anti-gun candidate out there(voting record) and another warmonger, and funny thing is there were 3 contests and 0% of delegates awarded. Thinking Ron Paul did bad here is a joke because I bet Paul has the most delegates in Colorado and Minnesota as of right now. People are scared and Paul supporters are elated.

I know all of you Ron Paul believers can't wait for the destruction of Israel.

It's kinda like the boy who cried wolf, isn't it?
Since WWII we've involved ourselves in "limited police actions", all politically driven. Now when it really counts we won't be there for our closest ally in the mid-East.

China's leading Communist party newspaper has defended Beijing's rejection of a United Nations resolution calling for Syria's president, Bashar al-Assad, to resign. The People's Daily said western campaigns in Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq showed the error of forced regime change.

Yup, the theocrats were out in full force last night. Heil Santorum.
Dems wants collectivised monetary system, Pubs want collectivised moral system.
I've had enough of both.
