2012 Republican Presidential Candidate | featured news

Rick Santorum accused Fox News of "shilling" for Mitt Romney during an interview with Fox's Brian Kilmeade on Tuesday morning."The man has had a ten-to-one money advantage," Santorum said of Romney on the radio show "Kilmeade & Friends.""He's had all the organizational advantage. He has Fox News shilling for him every day -- no offense, Brian, but I see it -- and yet, he can't seal the deal because he just doesn't have the goods to be able to motivate the Republican base and win this election."

A new poll Monday showed Mitt Romney is surprisingly strong in two Republican presidential primary contests in the South this week that are crucial to his conservative rivals Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich.

Rick Santorum won the Kansas caucuses in a rout on Saturday and Republican presidential front-runner Mitt Romney countered in Wyoming, a weekend prelude to suddenly pivotal Southern primary showdowns in the week ahead.

Former Senator Rick Santorum won the Republican presidential caucuses in Kansas on Saturday, CNN projected, giving him a boost going into crucial primary votes in the South next week.

Setting the stage for primary elections Tuesday in Alabama and Mississippi, Republicans in Kansas gathered Saturday for their presidential caucuses. Forty delegates are at stake.

As the GOP presidential race shifts to the South, Newt Gingrich has a slight edge over Mitt Romney in a new Mississippi poll.
