PA expected to squeeze out the Santorum

"In just a month, according to a new poll, Pennsylvania Republican voters have shied away from their former U.S. senator, Rick Santorum, in favor of GOP presidential front-runner Mitt Romney, signaling that Santorum may be in serious danger of losing his home state in its April 24 primary."

Hoping the Republicans stop embracing the crazy here.

I like Santorum.

New Jersey is kindly requesting that they not let the Santorum leak over into the Garden State.

Those polled overwhelmingly listed the economy as their main concern. But Santorum's campaign has been sidetracked for weeks at times by social issues.

Madonna said that Santorum boxed himself in by turning to social issues, wasting a chance to expand his base in states such as Pennsylvania with "complex and diverse" electorates that include many moderate voters.

"When we ask people what they care about, the social issues don't even register," Madonna said.

And what does Lady GaGa have to say about it?

Yeah I agree with Chris Matthews on this. It appeared that there was a time when Santorum was getting at least "some" traction with his "I'm from blue collar stock...I GET your economic pain" approach vs. Romney.

At some point, he (or his advisers) decided to go all in on the social issues campaign. I think this will be like Giuliani going all in on Florida back in 2008.

Strategic fail.

If you happen to be a Dem, Santorum was your wet dream. It's morning, forget it.
