Time and math work against Santorum's White House bid
Santorum effectively became the only conservative challenger to Mitt Romney left standing when he narrowly won the Alabama and Mississippi primaries on Tuesday, as good as ending Newt Gingrich's presidential ambitions.
"It's a little too late for Santorum," said Republican strategist Adam Temple.
Although he could do well at Missouri's caucuses this weekend, Santorum already is starting behind in next week's Illinois primary after failing to qualify for several ballots there. In the District of Columbia, another place where Santorum is not on the ballot, 19 delegates are up for grabs on April 3.
I don't see Illinois giving a nut like Santorum a win, anyway.
Santorum's home state of Pennsylvania votes on April 24 but even an enormous statewide win for him there, which seems unlikely given his massive Senate loss in the state in 2006, would not give him enough delegates to really contend with Romney.

How well will Santorum do in Pennsylvania? I predict he'll win but by a very small margin.
