Rick Santorum won both Alabama and Mississippi primaries tonight. If Gingrich hadn’t been in the race, Santorum would have crushed Romney. Romney and his SuperPAC outspent Santorum and his SuperPAC by four to one in Alabama and Mississippi, and outspent Gingrich and his SuperPAC by three to one. And still!
