FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
Democrats pounced on the lengthy counting process that was required before Mr
Romney could be declared the winner in Michigan as proof of his weakness.
“This is Romney’s home state,” said Brad Woodhouse, a party spokesman. “It
should have been called the minute the polls closed.”
Mr Romney clinched all 29 party delegates in Arizona, a rare winner-takes-all
contest. He will split Michigan’s 30 with Mr Santorum, who endured a
disappointing evening after entering the day tied with Mr Romney for the
lead in Michigan according to closing opinion polls.
Having repeatedly highlighted his strict adherence to Catholic orthodoxy on
contraception and abortion rights over the past fortnight, Mr Santorum
polled disproportionately badly among women. Addressing supporters in Grand
Rapids, he promptly paid tribute to his 92-year-old mother, his working wife
Karen and his daughter Elizabeth in an apparent attempt to repair the damage
done.
Mr Santorum also pledged to continue challenging Mr Romney around the country
for the Right-wing activists that the front-runner has repeatedly failed to
win over, reminding observers that his shoestring campaign was recently
written off as hopeless.
“A month ago they didn’t know who we were,” Mr Santorum said. “But they do
now”. He boasted that his campaign had “come into the backyard of one my
opponents” and performed strongly. “The people of Michigan looked into the
hearts of the candidates,” he said. “All I have to say is, ‘I love you
back’.”
Lambasting America’s “elites”, Mr Santorum promised to “build
a great America from the bottom up”. Aides conceded that Mr Santorum
had mis-stepped by saying earlier this week that John F. Kennedy’s 1960
speech calling for the separation of church and state made him want to
“throw up”, and that his focus on moral issues obscured the populist
economic stances that has previously served him well.
Mr Santorum earlier came under attack for sending “robocalls” to
Democratic voters across Michigan, urging his party’s opponents to vote for
him to damage Mr Romney’s prospects. While Mr Santorum won among Democrats
who turned out in the open Republican primary, he lost disproportionately to
Mr Romney among registered Republicans, many of whom were furious at the
tactic. Mr Romney dismissed the move as “dirty tricks”.
The candidates now move on to campaigning for next week’s ‘Super Tuesday’, the
most important single day in the party primary calendar. Polls suggest that
Mr Romney and Mr Santorum will split most of the ten states due to vote,
while Newt Gingrich, a former House Speaker, may win Georgia, the state that
he represented in Congress.
Ohio, traditionally the key bellwether state in the general election, is set
to be the day’s most bitterly-fought battleground. While Mr Santorum leads
in opinion polls by an average of eight percentage points, Mr Romney will
look to use his double win on Tuesday to quickly fight back.
