Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum is expected to lose the Wisconsin Primary big time tonight, along with Maryland and the District of Columbia.
Most of the GOP establishment has now backed Mitt Romney, although some seem reluctant and doubtful about the former Massachusetts Governor.
Santorum has become ever more vicious in his attacks on Romney, and has made it clear that he intends to stay in the race, despite daunting odds against him. He believes he will win his home state primary three weeks from now, and talks about how the month of May should be a good month for him.
This is part of Rick Santorum’s growing image as delusional!
We can look forward to the strong likelihood that Pennsylvania, which rejected Santorum for a third term in the US Senate in 2006, by a 17 point defeat, one of the all time record losses in percentage for a sitting US Senator, will repudiate him again, embarrassing him to the extreme.
But then, knowing Santorum’s delusions, he might not be embarrassed, and might continue to campaign into May, showing he is out of touch with reality.
The best gift possible for Mitt Romney, and for progressives nationwide, would be a smashing defeat and repudiation of a man who is not only delusional, but also a social totalitarian, desirous of taking away our privacy rights, in his mad dash toward promotion of a theocracy in America!
Hello Professor,
I can say with the utmost certainty that Mitt Romney will win the Republican Presidential Primary but not to worry, President Obama will win the State of Maryland in November.
As Maryland does have its share of right wing Republican Nut Jobs, they still are in the minority to the Main Line Republicans…..not to say they are anything to brag about as even those are father to the right than anyone should be.
Those whom Rick Santorum attract are the Old Guard, Religiously Sanctimonious, Klansmen and John Birch Society and last bastion demographics as such that remain in Maryland.
Once again today as this is the primary voting day for Maryland, my phone is ringing constantly with the political messages from those whom I would not even consider voting for even if they were running uncontested.
Like you have stated, lets hope for a sounding defeat in Rick Santorum’s own State of Pennsylvania next week.
