...winning Ohio last night, arguably the biggest prize on Super Tuesday. He also won Vermont and Massachusetts, two reliably Democratic states in the general election; Virginia, in which the Gingrich and Santorum campaigns were too amateurish to even get on the ballot; and Idaho, which is heavily Mormon. (Alaska has yet to report.)
According to Andrew Sullivan's blog (my emphasis):
Santorum won three states and basically tied in Ohio. That keeps him afloat with some forward direction, especially given the upcoming primary states where Santorum has a demographic edge. The fact that he did this well despite being buried by Romney ads and money in Ohio is a real achievement. Romney, for his part, still cannot win blue-collar votes and still cannot nail down evangelical support. He comes away with many more delegates, but few bragging rights. In Ohio, he won everywhere Obama will win in the fall.
The Republican campaign now moves on to Alabama and Mississippi next Tuesday. How well do you think Romney will do there?

Newt! will win in the South. Obama will win big in November.
