Roger's latest in World Net Daily: Santorum is not the one - The Roger Hedgecock Show - Talk Radio

The not-Romney Republican candidates for president keep imploding.

From Michele Bachmann to Newt Gingrich, a string of presidential hopefuls have held the lead in the race, only to fade as another flavor-of-the-month surges to the lead. After Romney victories in Iowa and New Hampshire, the string is running out. Ron Paul's loyal following has been steady, but not enough to grab the nomination.

The endorsement of Rick Santorum over the weekend in Texas by 150 evangelical Christian leaders is a last-ditch effort to stop Romney in South Carolina.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll of likely South Carolina Republican voters pegs Romney at 37 percent and Paul and Santorum tied at 16 percent. Gingrich, whose Super PAC continues to attack Romney as a "corporate raider" while the candidate asks the PAC to "correct errors" in the ads, is fourth at 12 percent. Perry has 6 percent.

A Romney win in South Carolina would propel him to unstoppable momentum, especially if his current lead holds in Florida, the next-in-line primary state.

No and No.
