After getting swept in three previous primary contests, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney got back on track with a win in Maine on Saturday.
The state's Republican party chairman announced Saturday night that Romney had won Maine's week-long, non-binding presidential caucuses, where only about 6,000 votes were cast.
The former Massachusetts governor narrowly beat Texas Congressman Ron Paul in what was essentially a two-man race, 39 percent to 36 percent.
Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich finished third and fourth, respectively, but neither actively campaigned in Maine.
Sunday morning on CBS' "Face The Nation," Paul said he is a standout candidate compared to his three GOP rivals.
"All three of them have represented the same system, the same status quo in not wanting changes in the foreign policy," said Paul. "None of them talk about real spending cuts, none of them talk about real changes in monetary policy, so they're not a whole lot different."
Santorum expects to do well in the Michigan and Arizona primaries on February 28, and he wasted no time hammering away at Romney's conservative credentials on ABC's "This Week."
"You reach a point where desperate people do desperate things. And I think Governor Romney now, another candidate has come up to challenge him, and this time he's having trouble finding out how to go after someone who is a solid conservative," said Santorum.
Gingrich had not actively competed in Maine.
