Haven't they suffered enough?

I mean, for fuck's sake... Hurricane Katrina was only seven years ago.

But no... for a change Louisiana's Republican primary matters, and the Four Horsemen of Conservatism have set their sights on the state.

The primary is tomorrow, and if you just go by the polls, it's likely to go to Santorum.

The GOP is going to wind up in a Mexican stand-off, at this rate.

Yeah, I'm fully expecting that Romney will not quite have enough delegates to get the nomination by the time of the convention. Well, unless Santorum implodes in the next couple weeks.

Apparently, what would happen is that if by the time of the convention, no candidate has enough delegates, they all become unbound, but they can only declare for a candidate that had won a majority in at least five states. Since Gingrich currently only has two states, and Paul doesn't have any... they'd have to pick either Romney or Santorum.

And honestly, there would be some brokering and shit going on, but they'd end up with Romney, because Santorum is crazy enough to cost them the election, pretty much automatically.

Either way, the entertainment value just skyrocketed.

Santorum tried to rip on Romney for the Etch-a-Sketch comment, has had it BACKFIRE UTTERLY, and is now trying to retract and say it's all Romney's fault that he (Santorum) said it in the first place. Fucking GOLD.
