The Conservative Movement is in crunch time. We are keeping score and taking names. Rick Santorum is definitely hurting the Conservative Movement by announcing far-reaching plans to stay in the race. This severely holds back the Conservative consolidation under Gingrich. Does Rick Santorum even know what the Conservative Movement is? He is damaging himself severely with Conservatives. We will be watching him daily to see if he keeps ignoring the predicament of the conservative movement. He will continue to get Black Stars for his arrogance and stupidity. Todd Palin, Mike Reagan and Herman Cain get Gold Stars for the selfless contributions of time and support for the Conservative Movement which is building under Newt Gingrich.
Save your nastiness for someone who cares what you think or say.
You are wrong. If you doubt my veracity, watch the rerun of o’reilly tonight. Santorum hisself holding her at a campaign rally all dresed up like a little doll.
It doesn’t happen OFTEN, but he does it. It reminds me of john edwards using his wife’s cancer as a sympathy ploy. I am sorry, but children are my achilles heel. ANYTHING that affects a child gets to me. THIS is supposed to be the great social conservative family man. If that is what this is, stay the hell away from me.
Santorum is my line in the sand candidate. I’m voting for him or I’m leaving the presidential slot blank. Others can sell out on all their ideals but I don’t intend to.
After all that has happened over the last couple of years and conservatives still don’t have the courage of their convictions, America is finished anyway and we all better worry about our own souls because we damn sure can’t save America.
Anyone who sees Rick Santorum and his supporters as a threat is delusional.
Nice try, but you're attempting to compare some of Newt's errant political positions (which he has since publicly withdrawn) to Rick Santorum's actual VOTING record.
And your defense of Rick Santorum's voting record is too weak to even rebut.
Bella just almost died, sport. Why is he not there with his wife and child? Why is he running for an office he cannot win while his wife takes on all of the family responsibility for seven children, one of whom is gravely ill? Who takes care of these children while he AND she are on the campaign trail? Santorum said he had not seen his daughter since Christmas. That’s over a month. And he only goes because she is ill? WHAT???
He spent ONE day with her. ONE day. And he didn’t go back to Florida.

Santorum to speak today in St. Charles
GOP hopeful Rick Santorum will visit Missouri today.
When • 2:30 p.m. today
Where • St. Charles Community College
Address • 4601 Mid Rivers Mall Drive, Cottleville
His campaign said he will deliver “a major address” on the economy.
I’m intrigued by Newt’s job program of increasing the state department by 50%. :)
Ok, now you can add me to the enemies list.
Go Rick!
By all means lets get rid of the guy who opposed individual mandates when supposed conservatives were chasing that windmill and Santorum was preaching freedom.
I’m voting Santorum so you can add me to the enemies list as well.
Any Santorum supporter, at this point in the race, is the enemy of the conservative cause.
Did you think/feel that way when the left was crucifying Palin for not being ashamed of her Down Syndrome son?
Using this, Santorum’s child, as a reason for your disdain is just like the Left.
Spin it any way that makes you feel better.
“Santorum hisself holding her at a campaign rally all dresed up like a little doll.”
Parents usually do this with little girls...dressing them up like little dolls. It’s one of the reasons clothing retail still makes money.
If anything that affects a child affects you then you’re following the liberal agenda. It’s for the children after all. RME.
If this is the reason you have problems with Santorum than you haven’t looked at his record. Santorum is the most socially conservative candidate running on the GOP ticket. I don’t see him as fiscally conservative as I’d like but he’s no worse than Romney and Newt, imo.
I don’t think Santorum has a shot at the GOP nom and even less a shot in the general against Obama. But to trash him for loving his child, not being ashamed of his child, is so low it’s surprising from someone who claims to be a conservative. JMO
My response was to YOUR post #29 which WAS directed to me. If you don’t want a response, then don’t direct a comment, much less a nasty one like yours was.
Anybody that supports candidates who wanted to force you at the point of a gun to buy a product you were not interested in is a statist puke.
You are out of your mind. Sarah brought out her son all the time while campaigning and I never heard a peep from you. At least stop your over dramatic BS. It is disgusting.
“Did you think/feel that way when the left was crucifying Palin for not being ashamed of her Down Syndrome son?”
No, I didn’t. You are comparing apples and oranges and it doesn’t stand up. It isn’t even in the same ballpark.
“Using this, Santorum’s child, as a reason for your disdain is just like the Left.”
Really? Then YOU answer the question I asked. Would YOU expose your child to mortal danger to win an office? I am not the one ‘using’ his child. HE is.
Make sure you add me to your list.
Mariner the fact that you still live in commie CA and pay their taxes is absolute proof you are a CINO!
Grow a pair and move and then talk about enemies to the conservative movement.
You are a traitor in spades!!!
So I guess you had a real problem with Sarah and Todd Palin, what with them leaving Trig behind when they were out campaigning. Otherwise you would be a hypocrite right? Oh, I meant to say right Sport?
And one more thing, you sure seemed to take umbrage saying I should not judge what you and your family have been through, and you are mighty sensitive for someone who likes to cast stones at others.
And one final thing. Comparing Rick Santorum to John Edwards is low. Edwards screwed around on his wife when she had cancer. Kind of like another candidate we all know and you love.
