Awesome-the later this stays at 25 point margin (20% reporting now, was also 25 spread at 12), the more likely those 15 point margin polls will be worse case scenario even after the 50 downstate, Illinois votes come in.

And he only had to outspend Santorum by a 7 to 1 margin. Yeah, that's impressive all right.

Maybe Santorum shouldn't have wasted campaign money on his vacation in Puerto Rico.

That was such a stupid decision by his campaign. He could've stayed and gotten extra votes in Illinois.

Don't worry, I don't think I'll ever even have the motivation to search for that pic ever again yet alone post it anywhere.

I saw that, too. The down-state vote will give Santorum a bit of a boost in the final count as it's working class...even though there are precious few jobs.

Same story: no love for Mitt outside of overwhelmingly Democrat urban areas. He has a real problem with conservative, rural voters that will hurt him in November.

Yeah I'm sure they'll be lining up to vote for Obama. Romney does well in suburban areas and that is where elections are won and lost. After the convention Romney will have the rural voters, they are the least of his worries.
