Later today voters in Mississippi and Alabama will go to the polls to cast their votes to decide who they prefer as the Republican presidential nominee, and though there aren’t as many states in play today as there were on Super Tuesday, the stakes still seem to be pretty high.
For Rick Santorum, a victory tomorrow in one or both of the states could bring about the end of Newt Gingrich’s “Southern Strategy” – not to mention his presidential aspirations – while a victory (or victories) by Mitt Romney in either state could show that he’s finally able to “seal the deal” with evangelical conservative voters.
Frankly, I’d love to see Rick Santorum win in both states today, because I’d love to see him knock Newt Gingrich out of the Republican presidential race, setting up a showdown with Mitt Romney.
You called it. What a mess. Yippee!
It’s a mess but that’s a good thing for us!
