No sooner than I predicted Romney would be the GOP nominee, contra mundum, the Sex Cop swept three primaries and caucuses of middling sugnificance yesterday.
I'll double down. Romney will still be the nominee. But I'm betting on the Sex Cop as his veep choice. Romney simply hasn't been able to get the raw meat right to accept his bona fides hating on all the right groups and government programs. 60% of the GOP's Base of Bases is voting against him, and turnout is lower than four years ago across the board.
So he'll need to fly his crazy flag with a surrogate, and Santorum is a safer bet than Gingrich. Newt'd be Jerry Lewis to Romney's Dean Martin, on the news every night gurning at females and yelling "WAAAAAA! Pretty lay-deeeeeeee!"
Romney and Santorum are also soulmates in that they have decidely mixed records at the polls. Romney tanked his Senate race against Ted Kennedy, only to see the seat go, a little later, to a former Playgirl model. Santorum's defenestration by the voters of Pennsylvania was by the largest margin in state history.
