Sitting here approaching 1 AM on the East Coast, and as he gives his speech Rick Santorum is ahead of Mitt Romney by 5 votes with 99% of precincts reporting. Subject to change, but thats where we are right now.
5 votes.
Thats one minivan of voters driven to the polls by a volunteer.
Thats 5 96-year olds turned away at the polls for not having the arbitrary GOP-defined standard of proof they are who they proclaimed themselves to be during their previous eight decades of voting.
Thats five people who believe the myth that nothing separates Barack Obama from Rick Santorum or Al Gore from George W. Bush.
That can be the difference.
Short and sweet. Thats the only thing worth remembering about tonight.
