Rick Santorum: It Ain't Over Till It's Over

Rick Santorum is truckin. Last night was a big night for the Santorum camp, as he ran roughshod over the Romney campaign in Colorado, Missouri, and Minnesota, picking up at least 28 delegates on the way. Of course, he hasn't snagged all of the delegates yet from these states, but if his momentum keeps up, you better believe he's going to. 

The race is a "two man race no more." As Newt Gingrich continues to falter, Santorum continues to rise. After his victories on Tuesday night, Santorum said he wasn't looking to be the alternative to Romney. "I stand here to be the conservative alternative to Obama," he said.

The candidates head next into Maine, and later in the month to Arizona and Michigan. Of course, Maine is back up near Romney's territory. It remains to be seen whether anyone can shake him up there.
