While We Wait on the Michigan Primary

Today Michigan and Arizona are holding their primaries for the Republican nomination for President. Michigan seems to be the race that matters. As Mitt Romney's home state this is a state that he cannot lose. Rick Santorum led in the race but has dipped slightly behind in the polls as a result of both the monies Romney's friends have spent against him and his own statements that have gotten wackier and wackier.

Jon Stewart had two segments on his show last night that related well to this race. The first of how has Santorum not put this guy away referring to Romney and the second was how has Romney not put this guy away referring to Santorum. Both opinions are correct. These two guys are both chumps. Can you imagine how all the Republicans who did not get in are feeling about themselves and their decision.

If Santorum wins tonight it is great news for Obama and incredibly bad news for Romney, a possible death knell. If Romney wins it is good news for him but he still has bad days to come. Super Tuesday might not go so well, Santorum leads in Ohio currently and with that primary only a week away Romney does not have long to use his usual carpet bombing approach.

I think both of these fellows are clowns but at least I believe Santorum has a heart. I am not of a mind that Romney does.
