Defeat in the rust-belt state, which no successful US presidential candidate
has ever lost, would have prompted fresh concerns that as the nominee, Mr
Romney would be incapable of ousting Mr Obama. Despite winning by just 38
per cent to 37, his overall victory is increasingly being viewed as
inevitable.

As experts warned that Mr Santorum now faces an almost impossible task to win
the contest outright, he claimed that the close finish in the bellwether
state showed that the contest was far from over.
“We’ve won races all over this country against the odds,” he told a packed
school gymnasium in Steubenville, in blue-collar eastern Ohio. “When they
thought, ‘oh OK, he’s finally finished,’ we keep coming back”.
Hogan Gidley, a spokesman for Mr Santorum, compared their campaign to the New
York Giants American football team, which last month stole a late win over
Mr Romney’s team in the game’s biggest match.
“I’m sure Governor Romney would have like to have stopped the Super Bowl at
half time and let his Patriots win, but we’ve got a second half to play,”
said Mr Gidley. “We’ve got 28 states left and we’ll keep on pushing
forward”.

Aides to Mr Romney pointed out that his haul of party delegates in Ohio would
comfortably outweigh Mr Santorum’s thanks to a series of embarrassing
administrative failures by the former senator’s camp. Mr Romney was also
poised to win disproportionately big delegate totals in Massachusetts, Idaho
and Virginia, thanks to individual state rules.
Newt Gingrich, a former House Speaker, won his second primary victory in
Georgia, the state he represented in Congress until 1999. He dismissed
suggestions that he might withdraw from the race, pledging instead to
compete in a trio of southern contests next week.
“In the morning we are going on to Alabama,” he told supporters in Atlanta.
“We’re going on to Mississippi. We’re going on to Kansas, and that’s just
this week”.
Mr Romney won the last poll in Alaska in the early hours of the morning, with
33 per cent of the vote, followed by Mr Santorum with 29 per cent. Sarah
Palin, the former governor and Vice-Presidential candidate, stole some of
his thunder however by refusing to dismiss the suggestion that she may yet
run for the nomination in the event that no current candidate secures a
majority of delegates and August’s party convention were brokered.
“Anything is possible. I don’t close any doors that perhaps would be open out
there,” she told CNN, after casting her vote in Wasilla. “My plan is to be
at that convention.”
Mr Romney appeared confident that such a scenario would not emerge. However he
conceded that his path to victory would now be a grinding and unglamorous
battle for delegates.

“Tonight, we’re doing some counting,” he said. “We are counting up the
delegates for the convention – and counting down the days until November”.
The former Massachusetts governor attempted as usual to raise his sights
towards Mr Obama in his remarks. “We won’t settle for this President’s ‘new
normal’,” he said. “Eight per cent unemployment is not the best America can
do, it’s just the best this administration can do.”
However it was left to his wife Ann to deliver an apparent criticism of both
Mr Obama and Mr Santorum over the ongoing row between the president and the
Republican Right over women’s rights to contraception.
Introducing her husband, Mrs Romney said the couple had met women across the
country and discovered that they were indeed “furious” – but about
pocketbook issues. “You know what women care about?” she asked. “Women care
about jobs. Women care about the economy. They care about their children and
they care about the debt”.
