Santorum Wins Kansas Caucuses in a Blowout, Romney Looks Strong in Wyoming

Santorum Wins Kansas Caucuses as Romney Looks Strong in Wyoming

(AP) — Rick Santorum won the Kansas caucuses in a rout on Saturday and Mitt Romney showed strength in Wyoming, the latest contests in the grinding campaign for the Republican presidential nomination.

Returns from 61 percent of Kansas precincts showed Santorum with 53 percent support, far outpacing Romney, who had 17 percent. Newt Gingrich had 16 percent and Ron Paul trailed with 13 percent.

Santorum’s triumph, coupled with Romney’s early advantage in Wyoming, were prelude to twin primaries in Alabama and Mississippi on Tuesday that loom as unexpectedly pivotal in the race to pick an opponent to President Barack Obama in the fall.

A total of 52 delegates to the Republican National Convention was at stake, 40 in Kansas and a dozen in Wyoming.

Romney, the front-runner by far in the delegate competition, padded his lead overnight when he won all nine delegates on the island of Guam and an equal number in the Northern Mariana Islands.

Romney began the day with 440 delegates in the AP’s count, more than all his rivals combined. Santorum had 181, Gingrich 107 and Paul had 46.

A candidate must win 1,144 to clinch the Republican presidential nomination at the national convention in Tampa next August.

In Wyoming, where some counties caucused earlier in the week, Romney had five of the 12 delegates at stake, Santorum had two, Paul had one, and one was uncommitted. Three more remained to be determined in party meetings on the day’s calendar.

Romney did not campaign in Kansas, leaving the field to Santorum and Paul.

Gingrich cancelled a scheduled trip to the state late in the week to concentrate on the two Southern primaries on Tuesday.

In sparsely populated Wyoming, there were 15 county conventions during the day to pick six convention delegates.

Kansas drew more attention from the White House hopefuls, but not much more, given its position midway between Super Tuesday and potentially pivotal primaries next Tuesday in Mississippi and Alabama.

Paul and Santorum both campaigned in the state on Friday, and Gov. Sam Brownback appeared with each without making an endorsement.

In Topeka, Paul told an audience of about 500 that Kansas should be a “fertile field” for his libertarian-leaning views but declined to say how many delegates he hoped to gain.

Santorum, who hopes to drive Gingrich from the race in the coming week, lashed out at Obama and Romney simultaneously in remarks in the Kansas capital city.

“We already have one president who doesn’t tell the truth to the American people. We don’t need another,” he said.

The former Pennsylvania senator told reporters he was confident “that we can win Kansas on Saturday and come into Alabama and Mississippi, and this race should come down to two people.”

An aide to Gingrich said earlier in the week the former House speaker must win both Southern primaries on Tuesday to justify continuing in the campaign.

But Gingrich strongly suggested otherwise on Friday as polls showed a tight three-way contest in Alabama.

“I think there‘s a fair chance we’ll win,” the former House speaker told The Associated Press about the contests in Alabama and Mississippi. “But I just want to set this to rest once and for all. We’re going to Tampa.”

Romney had no campaign appearances Saturday. The former Massachusetts governor won six of 10 Super Tuesday states earlier in the week, and hopes for a Southern breakthrough in Alabama on Tuesday after earlier losing South Carolina and Georgia to Gingrich.

      Romney‘s more prepared because he’s never stopped prepping for this election since he dropped out in 2008. He also has the wealth to hire the largest campaign staff to go out and ‘buy’ delegates. He’s also been winning by running negative ads against his opponents … not because he’s the best candidate for the job. Romney plays just as dirty as Obama … so if you think things are nasty now … just wait and see what happens next. Obama will crush him!!! Santorum has a better chance because he winning on his merits … not his wealthy campaign.

      The reality is, Santorum is loosing because he was not prepared to win. Romney is winning because of preparation, strategy and execution. All traits that earned him millions of dollars in the real economy and will enable him to accomplish the huge task of shutting down government waste (oh yeah, something else he knows how to do well, and that by the way, Santorum, even when he had the chance in the Senate, doesn’t know how to do at all.)

      Romney will mop the floor with Obama, because Obama will condemn himself , using his own words and his own record, (oh yeah, the same thing destroying Santorum and Gingrich now.) And let‘s not forget Romney’s record of creating and expanding Bain (Staples, Sports Authority, etc.), saving the Olympics (100 million deficit into 100 Million surplus), and turning Massachusetts around from a deficit to a surplus as well. As if selling his abilities to the American Public is going to be tough?

      And one other historical note. In the modern era, when Republicans run former Governors (Reagan, Bush 43, and Ike (former Generals count as well) they win both terms. When Republicans run former Senators (Ford, Dole, McCain) they lose. The only Republican senators that have won (Nixon, and Bush Sr. were former Vice Presidents not just former legislators.)

      Santorum lacks the emotional discipline to be president. Yes, he can be a passionate speaker, but a president should be – well, Presidential. Romney can think on his feet, yet remain calm and disciplined – and that will be needed when debating Obama. The only reason the Left wants Romney to run is because they assumed it would be him and set up this 1% straw man as the bad guy. Most people see through that though, and know they need someone who understands business to be in charge of the economy. He also appeals to the Moderates and Independents, while Santorum appeals to the religious conservatives. This is one of those elections where the religious conservatives do not have the winning issue. As Clinton once said: IT’S THE ECONOMY, STUPID!

      If Mitt teamed up with Marco Rubio, he would do well with Hispanics and Floridians. Let Obama trot out that old Joe Biden….. When America sees the success and youth that a ROMNEY / RUBIO 2012 ticket would have, and compares that to what we’ve got in the White House now, the decision will be an easy one. But if we bring out a religious zealot, people will vote for the devil they know (literally)!

    I am convinced that Gingrish that there can only be two reasons why Gingrich is staying in the race- 1) his ego 2) to help Romney. In either case, they make me less likely to turn back to him. His southern strategy is failing. Georgia has been the only state where he’s placed above third place since early February, but then he lost Tennessee at the same time. If he wins every delegate from every remaining southern state he still wouldn‘t catch up to what Romney’s will be by the end of today. But in the process he’s draining votes from Santorum while failing to meet the minimums to get any delegates of his, basically giving those votes to Romney.

    Here’s the funny part. We live in VERY rural Northeast Kansas. We would have had to drive 2+ hours in order to vote for any of the candidates listed. So, to me the vote that Santorum received was from the metro areas here in the state of Kansas. That does not even show what the rest of Kansans want. Our state is being driven by the metro areas that have no idea about what the backbone of Kansas really is and who is the backbone of this state (farmers). They don’t care if their regulations hurt the farmers and rural areas. They seem to think that food comes from the grocery store by magic. Once they destroy all us farmers by over regulation, fuel costs, etc…they will finally see that they should have listened to us in the first place. But, by then it will be too late. The really sad thing about all this is it will be the peons that suffer and not the upper crust. The upper crust can purchase $100/lb Kobi beef and us peons will have to forage and hunt for our next meal. America has become a very sad place. This is not the America I grew up in.

Early in the process I was for Paul, until he made a fool of himself in some of the debates, and then I was for Gingrich until I saw his arrogance and dirty laundry. I was also for Cain a few weeks, until it he obviously wasn‘t very ’up’ on foreign affairs. Bauchman kept making gafs that were too glaring, and Perry … bless his heart … he just kept stepping in it.

      The only two viable candidates left in the race are Santorum and Romney. There’s no doubt in my mind that whichever of these two becomes the nominee, we will all stand strong behind him to make sure he beats Obama. With that said … I pick Rick.

If you don’t mind some of us would like to actually have a say. Near as I can see Romney does good in predominantly Mormon states out west and just squeaks by in other states. He does well in very liberal states too. When it comes to the bread and butter conservatives, he loses. I’m glad the Mormons are voting for him, they should if he is upholding their values they should, I just don’t know how well that translates into all conservatives want him.

    He is no Ron Paul, but I could at least live with a Santorum. Hey I wondering if the Blaze was going to cover the Obama impeachment thing, Congressman Jones submitted an impeachment resolution and the media is blacking it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luUC-rSiZVI

      He is no Ron Paul is a VAST understatement. Take a look at his record. It‘s identical to Obama’s. It’s all big government this and police state that. Once again this country is being played for fools on both sides. And this time I cannot accurately deny that most of this country’s people are fools. How many damn times do we have to be given the same choice between Progressive A and progressive B.

      Just remember. If you are foolish enough to vote for the big government progressive Santorum (or Romney) than you will get what you deserve. Be it another Obama term or another Obama term but this time there’s a white guy in charge.

    Poor Rickie, he will never get my vote—-he is in the same dirtbag category as Newtie! He has been caught in some of his lies on the circuit and I did my research on him—-Rickie and Newtie will not get my vote if they are either one the party candidate! I voted for McCain the last election as I held my nose and Rickie proclaiming he is Conservative is a joke just like McCain was a joke as both are so far from being Conservative, but both talk that way! Rickie is a big union supporter and I don’t support unions who have come close to destroying the country and have definitely destroyed the once amazing education system in our country—we are getting to the point the US has one of the poorest education systems unless you go to a private school!!

      Emotion, not logic; seems to be controlling your voting–or non-voting plans. Many would remind you that a non-GOP vote is a vote for Obama. Worth thinking about as it is true.

      You could also consider that in all likelihood, Romney is going to be the eventual nominee. Anyone paying attention can see that the moment is – and has always been – with Romney. He may not be charging to the finish, but he will get there. That’s why he has so many more prominent supporters than any of the others. We can see the writing on the wall….. you can either join the winning team early, or wait until election day. Either way, Romney will win the nomination and then the election.

    Good Job Santorum! Social Conservatism still means something in middle America.
