Santorum: "May looks very, very good"

I think I can. I know I can.

(CBS News) CARNEGIE, Pa. -- Rick Santorum on Wednesday doubled down on his determination to stay in the GOP race even as calls grew among Republicans for his exit, saying he still thinks front-runner Mitt Romney can be toppled if he can beat him in Pennsylvania and Texas.

"The people of Pennsylvania know me," Santorum said while meeting voters at a diner here. "All of the negative attacks I think are going to fall on a lot of deaf ears. We've got a strong base of support here and we're going to work very, very hard. Then we're going to get into May. May looks very, very good."

June looks even better, Little Ricky.
And July, yeah, the skies will be bluer and bluer.
As for August, well, that's when it really begins to look marvellous.

But he's a mighty big burr under Mitt Romney's saddle.

I expected Mittens to smite him by double digits in Wisconsin, but that didn't happen. It's paradoxical, but as Mittens progresses steadily towards the nomination, Sick Rantorum becomes more of a "safe" protest vote for GOP voters who don't like him for various reasons. They'll provide enough electoral crack for Santorum to keep on pretending that he's going to be someone, someday.

150 and 145? Pathetic. Oh, but he DID accidentally make a strike! Mr. Frothy is a joke, and I hope they put that ball in the ballwasher to decontaminate it after he used it.

Let us not forget--many people in America will obviously go for their lies, and we have these voter suppression laws in a handful of states.
