Folks...I hate to say it, but Mitt is overpriced on intrade right now. This could go either way. It should be 50-50 until real returns start coming in. I would not put money either way.

If the exit polls are right and 10% of MI voters are Dems, is this a fair way to pick a candidate for the republican party?

Then have closed primaries. I support them but to think that candidates won't court Dems when they're able to vote is ridiculous.

It appears Rick Santorum is the first Republican presidential candidate to ever robocall Democrats asking for their support in a GOP primary. Do you consider this a blemish or a positive for his record? It is certainly not a footnote...

Maybe Santorum has that Reagan Democrat appeal that Romney utterly lacks (and will cost him Ohio/Michigan in the general).

Who do you think you're kidding? This site is for political junkies, not laymen. We've all seen the reports and Michael Moore's comments...

Rude and unnecessary

It was not intended to be. Obviously he is every bit as much of a political junkie as the rest of us. Let's not pretend that we are trying to convince laymen of something that is just not so. There are no laymen on here. We all know what Democrats were up to in Michigan. Michael Moore and others let that cat out of the bag...

Obviously you're in denial that Santorum is a better GE candidate than Willard "the trees are the right height" Romney.

Come on...there is not a single political analyst on the planet who can imagine Rick Santorum becoming the 45th POTUS...
