Santorum opened his big mouth (17 years ago)

Thank you for your participation and interest in the Mises Community. This software platform has seen its day, however, and so is now closed. We are redoing our entire site, so look for some exciting developments by the end of the year. Thank you for your support of Austrian economics, liberty, and peace.

BAM!  That is not going to be good for Santorum.  He's gonna be out like Herman Cain.

So, I guess it'll be Romney, Paul and is Newt still in the race?

Well...let's see...

Santorum, Romney, Paul, and Newt are currently in the race.

If we take out Santorum...

 

Santorum, Romney, Paul, and Newt 

 

...Yes.  That does in fact leave Romney, Paul, and Newt.  Awesome detective work!  High five!

"That does in fact leave Romney, Paul, and Newt."

That's the thing, I wasn't sure Newt was still in the race.  Are you 100% sure Newt is still in the race?

That post was awesome. I can't imagine Newt staying for long.

If I had a cake and ate it, it can be concluded that I do not have it anymore. HHH

Probably not. He'll probably get some heated questions from Piers Morgan should he be interviewed by him again and maybe something from the rest of the MSM for a week, then it'll be on to whether Paul is running third party or endorsing Romney, if nothing else happens. 
 
Who knows? This exposure may be more negative to Santorum, in Santorum's mind, then we think it is- it could be a lot of negative pressure right in the heart of election season.

Wow interesting. I hadn't heard that before. Why haven't any of the other GOP members running nailed him on that? I mean at first he was only getting like 2% of the vote so it didn't matter, but he is well into his surge now.
