Over on the homepage , a quick look at what yesterday revealed, most notably, the likelihood that Santorum has overtaken Gingrich as the preeminent anti-Romney candidate: Santorum began this contest as the man of the hour, the little engine that could in a sweater-vest who challenged and beat the much-better-funded Mitt Romney . . . and yet he has, at the moment, an entire three delegates committed to him. (Iowa’s delegates to the national convention will formally be selected at a state convention on June 16.) Keep reading this post . . .

There’s nothing good about seeing a man cry as he campaigns to be president of the United States. It’s not humanizing or endearing. But Newt Gingrich cried Friday in Iowa while participating in a forum hosted by Republican Strategist Frank Luntz . The audience was made up almost exclusively of mothers. Luntz asked Gingrich about his mother and Gingrich choked up and shed some tears. Mitt Romney made fun of the moment.

The major theme in Democrat attacks on GOP Presidential contenders at the moment seems to be that they are “anti-science”. As usual, if we want to see what is true of Leftists, we just have to look at what they say about conservatives. Leftists are such good “projectors” that they would be star
