The Constitutional violator and Chief's abortion and contraception ‘compromise', which wasn't a compromise, but another sneaky leftist ploy to mandate abortion and contraception has been rightly rejected by Catholic Bishops.

The Constitution is under a continually attack, and it's the Roman Catholic Church, which is usually the institution under attack is the institution to come into full-defensive of the founding document.

Santorum is the only presidential candidate to capitalize on it. But where are the rest of the Republicans? It's big question, and no one is asking it often enough.

The political stars, as the saying goes, have aligned for Rick Santorum. President Obama made sure of that with his medical mandate on contraception and abortion, which violates the 1^st Amendment of the Constitution. Santorum is in the right place at the right time, because of his unwavering religious, moral and ethical conviction…

Romney was polling anywhere from 27% to 31% in Michigan, his hometown. The spin is Romney's doing fine, but that was last week, prior to the February Santorum trifecta: Missouri, Minnesota, and Colorado. In the same poll, Santorum is anywhere from 15% to 19%, so the 10 points separate the too.

Three solid wins under Santorum's belt, plus Iowa, puts Romney behind by one win, and damaged. He should've won Colorado handily. That's the problem. Romney's not a sure thing.

Why is the ex-senator doing well? He's better positioned as the conservative candidate, and so far has nothing to shy away from, no major baggage or gaffs.

The showing on Tuesday is obvious to anyone who wants to recognize it. The base wants a winner and Romney isn't a winner, and his establishment handlers and cheerleaders, and Romney are fighting the tide. His campaign is slowly wearing out and unless the Rick Snatorum's campaign blows up, which is doubtful, Mitt Romney has a increasing change of drowning in the primary. The reality of Rick Santorum as nominee is something GOP has to examine seriously and soon. If Romney somehow makes it to the general election, and he losses, he will never be forgiven, nor will GOP.

Romney earned. But the primary isn't over no matter what Rubio sentiments are:

Sen. Marco Rubio predicts Florida GOP primary winner will become nominee

The ex-governor out ‘commercialed' Gingrich, but those TV spots don't change what is already known about Romney, or Gingrich, but the liberal bent in the Florida primary winner is more than obvious, and it's a problem. Even the 15 point win doesn't mask the fact that Gingrich did well, over 30%, which means, he's still in the race, and Romney knows it.
