Ever notice that the paid posters and crazies never comment on Republican primary articles/results. It's because they are too busy trying not to throw up in their mouths.

Mitt, hang it up. People couldn't be clearer that they don't trust you.

What we are seeing is that, while there is a sizable fraction of the Republican Party that is fiscally and/or socially conservative, there is also a fraction that is solely made up of extreme social conservatives. That element is splitting itself along traditional geographical lines (Gingrich getting the same southern states that were first to secede during the Civil War and Santorum getting the rest). It will be better for real Republicans (the ones the extremists dismiss as RINOs) if the extremists up and split.

Many claim that the Republican presidential campaign is no different than the 1:1 between Obama & Hillary Clinton. But there is a huge difference because while the Democrats argued policy issues, the Republican contenders(Gingrich & Santorum) are doing character assassination against Mitt Romney. It makes no sense because neither of the men have the experience or moral character that they can compare with Massachusett's former Governor. The GOP are being buried alive with the vitriol carried over from the former Washington Republican Speaker Gingrich & his side-kick Santorum.

Actually it makes perfect sense. If you have no policy issue, and no experience, and no moral character of your own, character assassination is all you have left.
