  - Bachman? especially has Santorum's VP -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 6, 21:11
  - *takes the bullet* -- nm - znufrii Mar 6, 20:45
  - Santorum is smarter so I guess it comes down to whether ineffectual or competent is scarier for the same platform. -- nm - David Mar 6, 20:37 2

CNN not projecting, but based on numbers suggesting Mitt pulls ahead. - ty97 Mar 6, 19:52 3

- MSNBC won't call it tonight b/c their model projects a 1% margin of victory -- nm - pixitude Mar 6, 19:53 1

- and Leon's getting laaaaarger! -- nm - Tim Mar 6, 19:40
538: Democratic voters might account for 1 to 2% bump for Santorum in Ohio, perhaps enough to put him past Romney -- nm - znufrii Mar 6, 19:38 5
- That's like playing Russian Roulette and putting another bullet in the chamber. - Bacon, NOT engaged Mar 6, 19:41 4
  - Santorum will never win, which is why Dems are happy to keep him plausibly viable for the nomination -- nm - pixitude Mar 6, 19:42 3
    - Well it is like the Pig Flu. As it turns out we weren't in any real danger, but for a few months it scared the shit out of us. -- nm - Bacon, NOT engaged Mar 6, 19:43 2
      - ugh. you know, it genuinely could have been bad. We just didn't know. But since it turned out mostly ok, everyone thinks it was bullshit. - loosi Mar 6, 20:25
      - Maybe an uber-Bacon lover like yourself was. -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 20:07
[deleted] 27
- The magic words are brokered convention. That's what some of us are discussing. Whether you choose to participate or not is your call. -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:35 23
  - [deleted] 22
    - I didn't intend for it to come across as bitchy, but I absolutely believe that a brokered convention is still a possibility. - David Mar 6, 20:14 21
      - I agree -- nm - tRu Pad Mar 6, 20:57
      - As fun of an idea as that is, I don't see how the math works, with Gingrich and Paul essentially non-factors to acumulate delegates from here on out. - znufrii Mar 6, 20:19 19
        
        It's not about any one candidate. It's about the totality of them. The far right is rejecting this candidate and they are accumulating delegates. - David Mar 6, 20:20 18
        
        it's not about the candidates, it's about the math. - znufrii Mar 6, 20:25 17
        
        Delegates do not have to vote the way they were elected thoug. Romney could be broken enough by the convention that some delegates switch to others. -- nm - tRu Pad Mar 6, 21:03
        
        Personally, I don't think there's much doubt about who the Republican nominee will be, but I think tonight's results still weaken Romney overall. - Roger More Mar 6, 20:34 13
        
        not if he ends up winning Ohio... -- nm - znufrii Mar 6, 20:38 12
        
        It will still be a marginal victory, like Michigan was. And no one's dropping out due to tonight's results. -- nm - Roger More Mar 6, 20:41 11
        
        but it gives him control of the narrative momentum, as Ohio was the state most everyone was paying attention to. -- nm - znufrii Mar 6, 20:43 9
        
        The narrative is that he lost too many states. Again. - David Mar 6, 20:47 4
        
        I don't get how going 7 for 11 today (assuming current results hold and Alaska isn't problematic) leads to the narrative he lost too many states? -- nm - znufrii Mar 6, 20:51 3
        
        Because he lost two he should have won, is a coin flip in another, and two of the others needed 15k votes or less. - David Mar 6, 20:55 2
        
        yeah, I can't say I see that narrative taking hold, really. - znufrii Mar 6, 21:04 1
        
        It will. -- nm - David Mar 6, 21:14
        
        not to mention he seems likely to win an outright majority of the delegates at stake in all contests today. -- nm - znufrii Mar 6, 20:44 2
        
        Just so I'm clear, my post was about how tonight affects Romney's chances in the Presidential election, not the primaries. - Roger More Mar 6, 20:47 1
        
        ah, gotcha. -- nm - znufrii Mar 6, 20:52
        
        If Newt drops out a few days ago, Santorum takes Ohio easy. Thanks Newt for cock blocking Santorum. -- nm - Bacon, NOT Engaged Mar 6, 20:44
        
        Though Ron Paul should -- nm - Bacon, NOT Engaged Mar 6, 20:42
        
        Dude, if Romney doesn't have a majority and isn't coronated after one round of voting, NOBODY has delegates. - David Mar 6, 20:29 1
        
        hey! dude on the cart! the horse is back there a ways... - znufrii Mar 6, 20:35
- I think there's a deep-seated desire among many, if not most people to see it all play out to the end - znufrii Mar 6, 19:33
- Santorum winning Ohio, Tennessee, Oklahoma might have some momentum. - Bacon, NOT engaged Mar 6, 19:32 1
  - nah, he needed a more decisive win in Ohio than he's getting in order for that to happen - znufrii Mar 6, 19:35
apparently Joe the Plumber is losing in his primary in Ohio tonight, as is Dennis Kucinich. -- nm - znufrii Mar 6, 19:28 1
- Dennis Kucinich is Kook on the Left. - Bacon, NOT engaged Mar 6, 19:31
So they threw away their votes in Georgia for Newt. This is my surprised face. -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 19:24 2
- hey, he's *your* asshole. -- nm - Reagen Mar 6, 19:29 1

Interesting analysis on Ohio from 538. Says Santorum lead narrow a bit, but could be enough to hold on... -- (link) - Don Homer Mar 6, 18:59 1

  - And Tootoo just punched a ref. -- nm - TFox Mar 6, 19:23 14
    - no! he's always seemed so level headed. -- nm - Reagen Mar 6, 19:24
    - Intentionally? -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:23 12
      - He was facing off with another player and when the ref skated in, he inadvertently hit tootoo in the face. - TFox Mar 6, 19:27 11
        
        Facing off as in jawing at each other, not a face off. -- nm - TFox Mar 6, 19:28 1
        
        Woohoo! We'll get on PTI tomorrow! -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:30

        Several games, right? -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:28 7
        
        3 to 5 would be my guess. -- nm - Reagen Mar 6, 19:29 6
        
        For hitting a ref? Seriously? -- nm - Roger More Mar 6, 19:39 5
        
        you don't hit officials. - Reagen Mar 6, 19:45 3
        
        I mean, 3-5 games is nothing. It's what - 5% of a season? -- nm - Roger More Mar 6, 19:49 2
        
        oh. well, like TFox said, I'm presuming he didn't cold cock him. -- nm - Reagen Mar 6, 19:52 1
