“I will be frightened for our country if Romney or Santorum wins.”
“We need a leader, not a manager in the midst of crisis. We need someone who can win — like Sanitarium who lost by 20 points in his own state last time. (This guy must be booking to be the big Rom’s VP).”
Pro-big government Santorum in 2005: “they have this idea that people should be left alone, be able to do whatever they want to do. Government should keep our taxes down and keep our regulation low and that we shouldn’t get involved in the bedroom, we shouldn’t get involved in cultural issues, you know, people should do whatever they want. Well, that is not how traditional conservatives view the world, and I think most conservatives understand that individuals can’t go it alone...”
Santorum in 2006: “pursuit of happiness harms America”

“The Declaration of Independence provides us with the right to pursue happiness, but it does not guarantee that we are entitled to happiness. There is no provision for a federal department of happiness, no provision for happiness stamps for the under happy, and no provision that allows taking excess happiness from one group and redistributing it to the under happy.” Newt Gingrich, Sep 16, 2010

In his speech at the Faith and Freedom Conference, Newt uses Americans’ right to pursue happiness to explain the core weakness of Obama’s redistribution model.
Santorum knows nothing about running a country let alone a country in peril. How the heck is this guy going to have the time to learn the ropes he’ll need to know to even begin to make the decisions he’ll need to...and where’s his plan? and how does he expect to impliment one. I see little evidence of a man sold out on his own ideas.....should he win he’ll be taking all his cues from others because there’s no way he’s going to take on his feeble shoulders the weight he will bare. No way....he’s not been tried nor tested...and the little he has been he’s shown himself to be a big government guy.....
So what will we have....another Senator, as Obama, who has visions of grandure, who will hit a brick wall he’ll not have a clue how to get around....and while he figures it out the nation will nose dive! No thanks!
Go Newt! GOOOOO!!!!!
