First of all, I am no ones vassal and I have no idea what kind of an insult you are trying to foist by calling me an igor? Name calling is what happens when people can't win an argument with reason or logic. I have pointed out why I think Santorum is the best. I have not heard any defense of Newt that makes sense other than Santorum cannot win. He is certainly not more conservative than Rick. In my opinion, Newt cannot win the general election. The more Newt people see the less they like him. The more of Santorum they see, the more they do like him. Also, this thinking (or lack of) that four more years of Obama is preferable to anyone but my guy is just beyond logic. ANY of the candidates is preferable to Obama. And finally, the notion that Santorum is a beard for Romney is ridiculous. He wants to win just like the other guys. No one would subject their family to that for the fun of it because it is a meat grinder campaigning every day. Santorum is staying in because he believes as do I that Newt will self destruct.
You explained the situation perfectly.
I studied the candidates pretty seriously after Cain imploded. It took a while to choosebut Santorum has the best chance of being a good to excellent President.
I literally have said that Gingrich is a weak, narcissistic man unfit to be a leader for years around here. The fact that he’s a feisty debater changes nothing. A president should try to Serve his constituents. None have been perfect at it, but some don’t even try. I don’t trust newt.
Santorum has been steadily rising to the occasion, fighting, leading, and keeping steady. Plus he is a decent man. During the general, some of newt’s bimbos will be offered money to describe a sexual encounter with him. We will hear about servicing newt in the car, in the Speaker’s office, etc. We wont have to hear this sort of thing from Santorum.
