Murdoch on Santorum: 'Win Michigan Game Over'

By MAGGIE HABERMAN | 2/20/12 Rupert Murdoch's latest tweet on the GOP race a few minutes ago:

From distance, Santorum doing great. Values really do count in America, and not sneered at as in parts of Europe. Win Michigan game over.

Santorum will not win in Nov. He will not even carry Pennsylvania. Icannot understand how people on this forum can think he can win. He will be turned into the devil by the democrats and the media.

Anyone who runs against obama can win. The rest is up to us.

Then again, you are "cynical man"...lol - I can hardly blame you!

Wow, I guess I really went after Santorum there.

A little touchy, maybe?

No, just sick of the idiocy.

I mean anyone who can claim Santorum is marred by making money after getting out of the Senate while ignoring that Gingrich almost made more money from his Fannie contract alone really has issues.

While I know that reality doesn’t tend to be the most popular thing around here, the fact is that no candidate is perfect (unless you ask the Palinistas who think she walks on water, but then she’s not a candidate anyway). Right now it might be a good idea if we focused energies on taking down Romney and then Obama. If people happen to have forgotten who the actual problems are, it might be nice if they remembered.

“Right now it might be a good idea if we focused energies on taking down Romney and then Obama.”

This is the pull quote right here. Nothing else matters. I can live with either Newt or Rick as long as it’s not Romney.

It seems to me though that a lot of the people stirring up the infighting are really Romney bots. They’ve been lurking around here since last summer, too gutless to declare who they are really for, and instead trashing every good conservative that climbs in the polls and threatens him. Thankfully, this scorched earth strategy appears not to be working so well this time (if you believe the polling).

You’re right, definitely game over for Obama.

Can you tell me which Republican they won't do this to? If Jesus Christ himself were running, they would paint him as Satan.

Let's not base our decision on what the democrats and the media are going to do.

Yep, a little touchy.

I don’t see where I did any of the things you seem to be accusing me of. Link?

All I did was observe that I think there is exactly one candidate that can go around the media at all effectively.

Fair enough, I should have picked a more apt post to respond to, but I was sick of the general tone I get around here bashing anyone but Newt.
