Santorum Pulls Up Stakes in Florida, Heads to Caucus States

Rick Santorum scrapped plans to campaign in Boca Raton this morning and will instead be campaigning in Missouri and Minnesota later today. He will make his way to Nevada and Colorado on Tuesday.

Polling in the teens and unable to compete with the Romney and Gingrich machines in Florida’s expensive media markets, Santorum didn’t have a chance of winning outright tomorrow. But he did have a shot of doing better than expected in Florida and carrying that momentum to other contests. He seems to think he’s better off moving immediately to caucus states dominated by conservative activists.
