Snatching delegates

As this political cartoon illustrates, Rick Santorum has come out of nowhere and surprised Mitt Romney by winning Minnesota, Colorado and Missouri primaries. However, Mitt Romney roared back by winning the CPAC straw poll and the Maine caucus. Santorum vows an aggressive race against Mitt Romney. According to polls, the GOP race seem to be at a tie between Romney and Santorum. "The primary wins have given Santorum wind at his back, which is important, but he'll need the infrastructure to build a sail to capture that wind if he's to be successful in future states," says GOP strategist Doug Heye. Santorum hopes this burst in popularity will help him with fundraising.
