Mitt Romney accused Rick Santorum of trying to “kidnap our primary process” by getting Democrats to influence the very tight Michigan GOP primary race, National Journal reports.
And for the first time, Romney conceded that Santorum might win.
Said Romney: “I think the hardest thing about predicting what’s going to happen today is whether Senator Santorum’s effort to call Democrat households and tell them to come out and vote against Mitt Romney is going to be successful or not. I think Republicans have to recognize there’s a real effort to kidnap our primary process. And if we want Republicans to nominate the Republican who takes on Barack Obama, I need Republicans to get out and vote and say no to the dirty tricks of a desperate campaign.”
