Romney, Santorum, and Gingrich split 90% of the delegates equally...with Ron getting the other 10%

Still, at the rate they are going, I'd not be surprised to see a riot break out at the republican convention between the various party factions.

And I guess those who would have voted for him just couldn't bring themselves to vote for R-Money.

Nonetheless, Mitt should be VERY worried about the 25% he got. PUT Gingrich on the ballot, assume he gets at least half of Santorum's votes, and you get a three-way tie.

ON edit: And speaking of ties, R-Money and Santorum have 37% each in Colorado! (According to CNN.com)

Santorum has been declared the winner.

But consider these numbers Santorum 55 to Romney 25

That means while this Is beauty contest Santorum beat the frontrunner by 30 points If It holds.

Meanwhile In Democratic Primary Obama has 84 to Uncommitted 9.Granted he has no real primary opporent but I still think It Is
Intresting.
