If Santorum wins tonight in Michigan, Romney's home state, the GOP's civil war begins...


Tonight's results should be interesting in MIchigan. If Santorum pulls this out - the trusted statistician Nate Silver at the NY Times Five Thirty-Eight blog now calls it a virtual tie and toss-up at the last minute - then it's Katy-bar-the-insane-asylum-door. It will be an internecine political war between the GOP establishment and the radical base like nothing we've seen since 1964 and we all know how that ended up for them. But this is how radical and nihilistic this new bunch of right-wingers is: even Goldwater would be too liberal in his libertarian leanings for them. But at this point they all deserve each other. Let'em go at it.
