Whether or not one is as Conservative as him on Social issues, he is spot on about Islamofacism, and comes off as incredibly decent.

It was an exceptional speech. I was clearly touched by it. I’ve heard Santorum before and he is a gifted speaker. More than that he is a gifted conservative thinker/philosopher who understands intimately the relationship between Life and all other Rights. He understands their source in God. He understands that grace matters.

It’s all in God’s hands. Always was. Let’s see if we are granted a reprieve by the 3 remaining candidates, all of whom profess faith in the historic, Triune God of Christianity.

Life...my right whether some human entity thinks so or not.

but he clearly and decisively won the contest and the admiration of a Nation.

if he can beat Gingrich and Perry in SC he’s off to the races..

IMO - Santorum votes were primarily negative votes and he was the beneficiary of the "I can't vote for Romney - too Liberal", "I can't vote for Ron Paul - too wacky" and the "I can't vote for Newt - too much baggage" demographic.
OTOH, the votes for Romney, Paul and Newt were positive votes for their candidates.
Elmer Fudd would probably have done as well.
That no one has more than 25% support should be troubling to the party.

I saw Santorum’s speech last night. It was very very good, as Rush has been saying today. From beginning to end, Santorum was speaking my language, especially when speaking about repect for all human life (he was referring to his 3 year old daughter who doctors said would only live a year). I was very impressed by his speech, made without a teleprompter or even notes (except for the Lewis quote).
I can support this man for president.

Perry wanted to be the Tim Tebow in the Iowa race, but Santorum did it.

Though I do not have a dog in the hunt, being out in Canada, I am still concerned about the MSM. Within the last hour I glanced at CNN. Cooper cut away to a commentator. I saw the name, John King, below the main screen.

Clips were played of a past viewing of Rick Santorum. It seemed to me to be throwing some doubt on this gentleman - particularly with his views on contraception. I have a keen ear for inflexions in voices. That voice seemed like a high school student who was articulate, but very opinionated.

If this was King, then he seemed as if he was turned on by his own bias. Certainly doing Santorum no favours.It may be that I have it wrong, but it soon may be evident that a huge machine will be bought into play. This to crush all semblance of fair reporting. Democracy or no, the MSM have lost their way (imho). Hopefully wiser heads might prevail in the coming election for the presidency.
