Meaning...

1. I like Mitt. He's more in the center then most Republicans. And if Obama has to lose I'd rather it be to him then Santorum.

2. Obama would tear that Flip Floper in half.

3. Rick seems like a nice guy with blue collar roots. He's honest and even if you disagree with him you know where he stands.

4. If Rick is the nominee Obama is going to win 400 Ev's

It's an open primay. I'd vote if I lived there.

For Rick (Because Romney is so fake)

Real human beings don't actually vote strategically for the candidate they think their preferred candidate will most easily beat. If they do vote, they'll vote for the candidate who they'd most prefer as a second choice to Obama.

Michigan Democrats have little cause to believe that any prospective GOP nominee for President has a real chance of beating President Obama. They will have other concerns -- like Congressional races and State representatives. The current GOP in Michigan wants to turn Michigan into the Oklahoma of the region.

"Operation Backdoor" is real. Democrats, both independently and as part of a coordinated effort, are voting for Santorum in open primaries/caucuses in order to help Santorum now, which hurts Romney now and therefore helps Obama later.

I can't wait until we find out who the union stooges are behind the organization of this coordinated effort. It's obviously the same characters who Arlen Specter (The Original RINO™) and his best buddy Rick Santorum hobnobbed with back when the Pennsylvania Duo was bringing home the bacon.

Jimmy Hoffa told me to do it.

Haha. You're not real, by the way.

Did Politico ever explain how "Operation Backdoor" managed to succeed in the closed Colorado caucuses?

By the way, if you Google the name of this exceptionally well-organized clandestine conspiracy perpetrated by the Democratic Party and their union stooges, the first politically related result is a post on this forum by Politico.

Politico seems to have delusions of grandeur - on behalf of someone else.  I'm not even sure what you'd call that.

I'm planning on voting for Obama.  Seeing as, you know, I don't support the candidacies of Santorum or Romney.

Arlen Specter is known for his massive influence in Michigan, of course.

Oh wait! I see what's going on... Specter is rightfully loathed by the GOP so whatever he says, the base will think the opposite thus helping Santorum win the nomination and helping Specter's fellow liberals! What a sneaky guy! Thank God Politico is on to his game.

The correct answer is obviously vote for Gingrich, though only to keep him in the race, drag this thing out, force Romney to spend money attacking both Gingrich AND Santorum, and hopefully help force a brokered convention.
