A moderate- Mitt Romney and a true conservative, Rick Santorum are battling neck and neck to win the Iowa caucus tonight. It really doesn't matter who wins as the number of delegates will be almost the same. All they are doing is battling for bragging rights.
Ron Paul came in third and Newt Gingrich is a distance 4th and the you have the also rans and book sellers.
From here, they will go to New Hampshire where Romney has a large lead, but Santorum can cut into that lead since he is from the Northeast. Then comes South Carolina and Nevada, where I will go to a caucus and put in my vote for Santorum- he didn't throw Nevada under the bus when we had the squabble with New Hampshire about the date of our caucus.
So, let the games begin.

Santorum is definitely NOT a Conservative, at least not if you define that as a limited government person. And he did, in fact, jump quickly on the "boycott Nevada" wagon.
ReplyDeleteThanks Orrin for stopping by. I disagree with you- Rick wasn't one of those who tried to screw Nevada in the caucus debate. Cain, Gingrich, Perry etc.. all against Nevada and Santorum was quiet.
ReplyDeleteAs far as a conservative, he is certainly more conservative than Romney, Paul, Gingrich, Huntsman and Huntsman. Is he perfect, of course not, but still better than others.
