“Santorum is the quintessential squishy candidate on most matters and he is rock solid on religious/social matters.”
His fiscal plan is more conservative than Paul Ryan. Last I checked, you didn’t consider Paul Ryan a squish.
“No one cares about the stuff he is selling.”
Aah, so we have a social liberal telling conservatives that nobody cares about social conservatives. You are wrong. Very wrong.
To come here and say that social conservatives have no voice, I don’t know what to say. People - this is the support behind Newt. They do not support what you believe in and what you value. That is why they are backing Newt!
I see it, I hope you can too.
“America Wants JOBS!”
And they ought to rely on the president to provide them is what you are saying?
I think Rick Perry is focused like a laser on jobs and I think he is a good social conservative.
Alas.. his decades of record seem to be being dismissed forthright.
Rick Santorum is a nice guy with Christian morals. As such, that should not be the only qualification nor sole determinant to be President under the present circumstance.
This is a political race to see who will be the best candidate to take on and bring down the Marxist-Leninist Muslim running for a second term in the White House.
So-called Christians who are opposed to Newt Gingrich becasue “he is a serial adulterer” - and I have spoken to a plethora of such on Free Republic - are missing the big picture here: this is not a contest about who has or has not sinned in the past.
Mitt Romney is the choice of the Globalists in the Reoublican Party because they think he is malleable. None of them give a rat’s arse about morality, exept to give it lip service.
BHO2 is the choice of the Global Social Justice league. They too, chose Obama because he is malleable. All they want is world-wide Communist domination.
Neither group above has any concern for the Bible carrying, gun owning common man and woman in this nation, whose main concern is the continuance of their God given rights.
We must change the way Washington, D.C., does business, period.
Newt Gingrich has been expounding on that issue for a very long time. I’ve noticed that Rick Santorum is a follow-along on this issue, but he lacks the fire-in-the-belly of a serious contender like Gingrich.
