MI is not a winner-take-all state. Delegates are apportioned by congressional district here. Who takes the statewide vote is only relavent to the extent to which a candidate can claim the largest majority of the delegates.

However, the media is likely not to report it that way. But, the media's delusions are not going to help Rmoney get any more delegates.

How is Santorum behind if he apparently only lost the early vote by 3 and is winning todays vote by 8?

That doesn't make any sense at all.
