Rick Santorum sailed through to first place in the Minnesota, Missouri, and Colorado caucuses.
The anti-Romney crowd still wants someone else, and slowly they are coalescing around a consistent yet still imperfect replacement. The flip-flop moderate from Massachusetts is now more than every a gross turn-off to the widespread GOP electorate, and steadily becoming a still-born liability for the general election.
The former New England governor is Obama-Lite to most voters -- the last thing this country needs is a moderate in conservative clothing fleecing the faithful and making off with tepid support at best. How is Romney going to debate the merits of his election in the face of RomneyCare, the blueprint for ObamaCare and the primary reason why the current President must become a one-term wonder.
Newt Gingrich is unstable. Ron Paul is too stable in his unstable policies of radical libertarianism, a mode of political thought which garnered a disappointing third place finish in the Nevada Caucuses.
Perhaps the Pennsylvania Sweater Vest, the also-ran for many months, will become the alternative to capture the GOP nomination. Buttoned down yet consistent and careful, Santorum may pull off the double upset needed to turn this country back to limited government and long-term recovery.
