Yes. But it may end up being a closer fight between him and Santorum than is being predicted, especially when you factor in the consistently LOW voter turnout for GOP primaries across most states thus far. We shall see.

Paraphrasing one of his cooments: "Puerto Rico has to make English the offical primary language if it is to become the 51st state." If I've got the history correct(?)…English AND Spanish, both, have been the official and primary languages of Puerto Rico since at least 1993.But Mitt may have done himself some damage too (as this very sensitive issue relates to future primaries) when in TRUE Mitt form, Mitt got to Puerto Rico and apparently decided to ABANDON his own "English-Only" stand which he had prouldy been proclaiming PRIOR TO the primary in Puerto Rico.Say what you will about the right-wing idiocy of Santorum. At least you know where the man stands on any number of highly contraversial issues. Mitt? The man doesn't appear to have a principled bone in his body. And my guess is Santorum won't be forgetting Mitt's latest "flip" in Puerto Rico, anytime soon.
