[You kip if you want to...]

Going to bed. Hope Rick carries Mississippi.

Santorum splashed across every newsanchor's lips tomorrow.

[Colbert]

no caucus in guantanamo for romney?...

[Grad Students are the Worst]

uh J.J., what urban areas in Mississippi are "still out"?  A few are underreported (the Jackson metro has gone from overreported to about parity) but I can't imagine that's enough for Romney to be anything but screwed.

Lauterdale, Lowndes, Washington.   Yazoo (not urban), where Santorum is running third, is about 30% in.  Jackson is 90% in.  It is an outside chance, but it is a tight race.

Yazoo is tiny and mostly black

Washington is 100% reported

I guess Lowndes and Lauderdale are arguable bright spots for Romney, but no freaking way they're enough.  I guess Romney could get insanely lucky, but I really doubt it.

I would not call any of those counties "urban" but whatevs

79.8 reporting richard lead 1.2 vs newton

You have quite the expansive definition of 'urban'.

[Likely Voter]

So the AL exits were right, but were the MS exit polls wrong or are there big pockets of Romney vote to still come in (like in OH)?

MS exit poll is now modified to show a Santorum win.

sneaky!

[Chaddyr23]

Love Eric Erickson's story about how his sister was the only one who cared to vote in her office. This party is just anyone but Obama and it's gonna hurt in the end.

The media is going to have fun throwing Romney's quote: "...the desperate end of Rick Santorum's campaign..." back at him tonight.

[I left.]

I've made quite a lot of money tonight...

Well played!

I don't understand how just plain stupid people are with real money. I bought Santorum in MS for under 10 earlier tonight...

[Colbert]

The media is going to have fund throwing Romney's quote: "...the desperate end of Rick Santorum's campaign..." back at him tonight.

he really said that?

Santorum up 3,000 in MS with 88% in.  There's a few good places like Rankin for Gingrich outstanding, but it's getting tougher and tougher for Newt.

On CNN earlier in an interview

A slightly greater than 1% chance still seems absurd.

[Grad Students are the Worst]

Oh, yes, Intrade is absolutely on crack...still.

90% reporting, Santorum +3,300

[Colbert]

Santorum up 3,000 in MS with 88%

the link, please ? on my huffington, they are only at 81.4%

Santorum also stands a chance of overtaking Romney in Birmingham, which would leave Montgomery as Romney's only urban Alabama county (and maybe Mobile, still really nothing in from there.)

BEFORE CNN, COLBERT CAN SAY : MISSISSIPPI GOES TO SANTORUM !

Yazoo is tiny and mostly black

And voting for Romney, with Santorum in 3rd.

Washington is 100% reported

It hadn't when I posted.

At 90%, you can take out Romney, but Gingrich still has a fair shot of winning.

[Wiz from Wis in Mass]

Oh Jeez... Santorum just winked to his 3 year old special needs daughter... and I, a Massachusetts liberal... totally believed it was genuine... this is why Romney keeps losing. Santorum is nuts, but he's not a liar.

merci beaucoup

[Nation]

Am I the only who, when seeing Rick Santorum speak, thinks "this guy would be a stronger candidate than Romney?" Am I crazy?

[Landslide Lyndon]

I gotta hand it to you Phil. That's one tough Italian SoB you got out there.

It was reporting at the time for me, I think...but in any case, you just called Yazoo City (pop. 11,000 and 27% white) an "urban" area in the Republican primary, so I'm not sure what to say

[Grad Students are the Worst]

95% reporting

Santorum +3,700

This is pretty much over.

I had the same thought.
