gwydion* In the non-binding (and therefore mostly relevant for fundraising and momentum) votes today:
Colorado: Santorum 37%, Romney 35%, Gingrich 24%, Paul 13%
Minnesota: Santorum 45%, Paul 27%, Romney 17%, Gingrich 11%,
Missouri: Santorum 55%, Romney 25%, Paul 12%
It is still bad news for Romney, as he expected to take Colorado strongly. In individual popularity polls, people in those states are considering santorum more pleasant than Romney. Eeew.
* Karen Handel resigned, but some of the anti-choice leadership is still running Koman.
* Want to donate to Planned Parenthood? https://secure.ppaction.org/site/SPageServer?pagename=pp_ppol_Nondirected_OneTimeGift
* In s few minutes, I take a long, exhausting trip downtown, hopefully in aid of me getting my finances straightened out and funds to carry forward. Fingers crossed, everyone. I also plan a trip to the library, post office, and pet store for fish food while I'm down there. Exhausting.
* Props to White Collar for giving a snapshot of some of the complexity of emotion underneath on the queer side of the marriage equality movement. They could have not touched New York marriage equality, or could have simplified this for the straight audience by having them all congratulate Diana on getting engaged to her girlfriend and left it there. Instead, we get the little snippet with Neal reading Diana's micro expressions and probing, with Diana's answer about up until then not having thought it would be possible. The way she's still getting her head around suddenly having an option she'd been told she could never have her whole life... Yeah. So simply stated and so true for so many, it gave me shivers. This was the riskier option, and they didn't need to take it. I'm still getting shivers thinking about it, because of how they handled it.
