Go Rick Santorum!

It appears that Rick Santorum has won both the Mississippi and Alabama Republican primaries and I could not be more pleased.

It might seem odd for a liberal to be happy with Santorum's victories but the logic is simple.

The longer the Republican primary season goes on, the less time Mitt Romney has to focus on beating Barack Obama. If Santorum continues to run Romney close then Romney is likely to be forced further to the right which makes it harder for him to pick up independent votes in a general election.

And OMIGOD if Santorum actually ended as the Republican Presidential nominee, well that might just be an excuse to get very very drunk (Happy drunk not drown your sorrows drunk).
