Alabama and Mississippi Republican Primaries *Updated*
There's nothing like a Southern Election Night, ya'll!
Update! The winner is Santorum and ... Santorum! A sweep! Now we just have to wait to see if Romney took Hawaii and American Samoa (he probably did). Gingrich is the big loser because he needed to deliver these southern states. But he vowed to stay in the race tonight. Santorum is giddy with success, but still has a delegate numbers problem. Meet back here next Tuesday, same bat time, same bat channel for the Illinois Primary.
~~~~~~~~~~ Being down south the past few weeks, I'm sure Mitt Romney thinks he has gone through the Looking Glass and can't get anywhere no matter how long he runs.
"Well, in our country," said Alice, still panting a little, "you'd generally get to somewhere else - if you run very fast for a long time, as we've been doing."
"A slow sort of country!" said the Queen. "Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!"
If this is anything like Super Tuesday, it's going to be a bumpy night! Lean back with some Cheesy Grits and boiled peanuts, Ya'll, and watch the spectacle of American politics. If only these were the last two southern states, but we still have Arkansas, Louisiana, Kentucky, North Carolina and Texas!
