CHARLESTON, S.C. — Former House speaker Newt Gingrich scored an easy victory Saturday in the South Carolina primary, blowing a hole in Mitt Romney’s aura of inevitability.


Well this is a disturbing development.

Let me make it real easy... if anyone is interested in my actual opinion, please ask, I'd love to talk to you. If you are interested in trying to catch me out in some sort of "gotcha, before you said 'many', but now you're saying 'lots', you totally shifted goal posts", then, I'm not playing.

Newt won? Well, this is quite an odd development, but one which might well expedite a Democratic Victory in 2012.

After a campaign of race hatred and a career of anti-liberal outright bigotry, Newt Gingritch wins the most conservative area in the history of the universe, a place that would lynch Genghis Khan for being a pinko.

So last I checked, IIRC Romney won Iowa, Santorum was shown to have won New Hampshire after the fact, and now Gingrich has won South Carolina.

Who the fuck is winning?

Got that a bit backwards.  Santorum wins Iowa after the fact, Romney wins New Hampshire, and Newt wins South Carolina.

Ironbite-in this race....nobody's winning.

to be fair this is the same audiance who cheered when Newt said black people are lazy and booed when Ron Paul said that we should treat others as you want to be treated.

Can't say I'm really surprised.  After all, Newt is from Georgia, which as you probably know, shares a rather long border with South Carolina.  Plus the other two leading candidates are from northern states, one is Mormon, the other Catholic.  Neither of them have anything about them that really resonates with southerners while Newt is a southerner.  It would surprise me if he didn't do well in the south.

ETA: I'm not saying it's a good thing, just that it doesn't surprise me.

Is it too early to hope that this might help people discard the notion that the primary season is supposed to be over after just three or four states have had their say? :P
