Romney was initially ahead so they gave him the win. Then they recounted and discovered that Santorum had actually won, so they decided that it was impossible to tell who the winner was.

matthewcline 0 #6 March 12, 2012 QuoteDid you get the headline wrong, or the counts? Or am I just not getting it? No it is the GOP, they want Romney, if even their voters don't. Kind of like the TN Democrats did to themselves in 2008. They wanted a "Yes" man and did not have that with a certain State Rep, she won the Primary (TN it is an Open Primary) not putting there replacement Yes man on the ticket, so they negated all her none registered Dem votes (How I do not know, or maybe they just said that and over ruled the people). So the ballot comes out in the General Election and she is not on as a Dem, but an Independent. Since that was the year of "No more Bush" and any thing not "D" was "Bush" and Bush equals "R", even at the state level, many voted "D", not for a candidate, as quoted in exit polls and interviews. My point in that long winded ambling the TN Dem's focused on one candidate getting in, and they lost the State. The GOP should learn from States that this happened in and remember it, or they can just do what they are doing and we will see how the long term plans of President Obama play out. I so wish we had viable third and fourth parties. MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
