Weak slam on Santorum. He lost 1 race in a terrible year in a deep blue state. Newt basically got shown the door when he was Speaker from a House revolt. That didn't look good either. I will stay with my principles and back Santorum just because he "ticks off all the boxes" for me.
>> He lost 1 race in a terrible year in a deep blue state.
Anyone who pimps for Arlen Specter rather than support a good conservative like Pat Toomey doesn’t have the judgment to be POTUS.
PLUS he’s a loser.
No thank you.
This mess between Santorum and Bob Vander plaats is extremely troubling and I believe there are people who know the truth and are keeping their mouths shut.
"There is an unmistakable theme of departure and return in his campaign as well, because just about everyone had written him off as irrelevant by Labor Day. Gingrich sounds rueful when he thinks back to the pounding he took during his first week as a candidate, when he got into trouble with conservatives for criticizing the entitlement-reform plan offered by his friend Paul Ryan. It was the excuse to go after me, he told me. So everybody said, Oh, good, hes bleeding, lets see if we cant kill him. And thats what was the real revelation to me, is that people I really thought were personal friends all cheerfully engaged in the lynching. And a lot of them of course now have a vested interest in my not winning, because of how silly theyll all look.

We agree on a lot Lazlo, but to me Santorum has no charm at all, Obama would beat him... I’d bet money on it
He comes across as a whiner to me... I always got a negative vibe, he’s just not an impressive person... I’d rather go back to Bachmann
