The former Massachusetts governor was the favorite of 39 percent of the 2,108 caucus goers, while former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum finished second with 32 percent. Texas Rep. Ron Paul had 21 percent, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich had 8 percent. The situation in Wyoming is really confusing, but these are the only results we’ll have for awhile, and it’s great to have another win for Mitt heading towards Super Tuesday.
Mitt Romney today made the following statement on the results of the Wyoming caucuses:
I want to thank the voters of Wyoming who took the time to participate in their state’s caucuses, and who gave me their support. It is a thrill to have taken first place in Wyoming. Our country is engaged in a great debate about its future direction. The voters here have spoken loudly and told the rest of the country that they want change, and they want a leader who understands that fixing the nation’s economy, and ending Obama’s runaway spending and borrowing, is priority number one.

Mitt nice remarks on O’Reilly. O’Reilly…? Still don’t know if I like him as an interviewer but at least he said it is unfair how they are potraying Mitt in the media. Can’t believe how low Santorum stooped in order to try to win Michigan by calling on Democrats there to vote against Romney. Watch Santorum the Enemy Within

Santorum supported, the Benedict Arnold of the Republican party, Arlen Specter for reelection. Specter once a Republican switched to be a democrat. Specter became the culminating and final vote for ObamaCare. For you conservatives out there, Specter then went on to call for the repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act. ObamaCare depending on the source states that it will cost between $400 billion and $1.2 trillion. The Congressional Budget Office states that the cost will be $829 billion with job losses totaling around 1.6 million. All because Santorum willingly supported the Specter. In fact, read the PA articles he was on a crusade to get him reelected.
Good to see on O’Reilly tonite. Romney really needs to loosen up, talk about his family, friends, himself. People are willing to give him a chance but he needs to show a warm side. That was a great thing to hear that he donated his inheritance. More stories helps folks make a personal image out of him. Right now he is shy, cold and it just isnt fair. We know there is a humble side to him. On other hand, no need to be charasmatic like O’Bama who is a manipulator and not smart. Romney we know your smart, show us your warm trusting side.

Excellent job Mitt! And in addition to the O’Reilly Factor, John McCain was on The Jay Leno Show tonite and spoke highly of Mitt…well done John McCain! Personally met McCain in Tucson a couple of days ago…fine man!
yes .. great interview .. and I believe that Mitt being as humble as his is, is exactly why he doesn’t mention such things as his giving away his inheritance .. or the amount of $$ given to charities .. or his shutting down his company to search for an employee’s missing daughter .. or personally helping families hurt by the CA fires .. on and on. Ann is right that they are grasping at straws. It doesn’t matter what he says or doesn’t say, they’ll find a way to turn it against him. If he jokes, he’s insensitive – to someone (not that he is being relaxed & connecting w/ people). If he mentions his charitable deeds, he’s bragging & insensitive (not a generous man). He is who he is .. and is definitely the best that we have at this time.
LOVED THAT INTERVIEW! Gov. Romney was relaxed and I loved how O’Reilly was almost screaming to pull out of Romney the fact that he gave away his inheritance.
LOVE THAT!
We agree that the interview was so good, and Bill gave Mitt some opportunity to show his true self. Mitt truly is a warm, personable, charasmatic person.. We know! And Ann is a darling, fun person!
I didn’t know that he gave away his inhertance. Wow! he didn’t want to about it. O’Reilly is forcing him. Let God watch him all his steps.
O’Reilly for Gov Romney Communication Director! I get so mad when the media, GOP candidates, the Demos talks so much about Gov Romney Super PAC relationships. The situation forced him to accept the process but, he never been a pro super pac mania. He even wrote in his book about super pac influence in politics and how little his dad spent when he run for office.
In some cases Gov Romney is his own enemy however, God is watching him, though. He’s still a front runner and standing strong after all the nasty attacks from the left and the right.
Gov Romney=Integrity!
