Ahh-Eee!! Santorum wins Louisiana

Ahh-Eee!! Another southern state goes to Rick Santorum with tonight's win in Louisiana (double-digits above Romney). Already campaigning in Wisconsin, with daughter Sarah Maria, he delivers his 'Merci Beaucoup' to the Cajun State...


(here's the lengthier remarks before the CNN broadcast kicked in...sorry, volume starts out low)

"We have just accomplished something in the modern conservative era that had only been accomplished once before, and it happened back in 1976, when Ronald Reagan running against the establishment, the establishment that said he was too conservative, that he couldn't win, they were telling him to get out of the race, he was only hurting the party, and he continued to run, because this is something more than the party. It's about doing what's right for America, standing up for the principles that will heal this country, that will bring us back together, that will make this country stronger, and greater, and more free. Ronald Reagan fought that battle in 1976, and he did something that had not been done since, as someone as a conservative running against the Washington establishment: he won eleven states. Well tonight, thanks to the great people of Louisiana, we have won our eleventh state in this primary fight, and I want to thank you for doing that."
