Romney or Santorum would be ideal for Obama to run against. Romney for reasons already explained before, Santorum because he's a decisively weak on fiscal matters (see voting record who runs on tired old social conservative zealotry that most people don't care about right now.

Romney/Obama -

Obama wins because in a contest between moderate socialism and real socialism, real socialism wins every time. Obama wins, but it’s close.

Gingrich/Obama

Gingrich loses because he supports global warming, has no connection to the base of the party, and makes Obama look good in being married to one woman and staying married to her, etc.

Obama wins in a landslide.

Santorum/Obama -

This is Obama’s worst matchup. Why? Santorum is Catholic and has support from evangelicals. Santorum gets the vote out in the heartland. This we saw last night. The folks who voted for Bush and voted for Reagan are willing to back Santorum.

This is why the knives are going to come out against Santorum by the Axelrod folks. Because they absolutely must have Gingrich/Romney as the nomination ‘contest’ because either way they win.

You show up on every thread to bash Santorum. Obviously you aren’t very confident in Gingrich if you feel the need to continue to rip Santorum every chance you can.
