Mitt Romney won the Illinois primary by a double-digit margin yesterday. The victory may be due in part to the fact that Rick Santorum keeps putting his foot in mouth. 
His latest gaffe? Just before the vote Tuesday, he told Illinois voters, “I don’t care what the unemployment rate’s going to be. Doesn’t matter to me.” He later admitted he wished he “had a do-over”.
- Too bad for him all the thousands of unemployed people in Illinois were sitting at home watching TV when he said it.
- He may not care about the unemployment rate now… but that may change after the convention.
