-—”He said he’s someone “who can overcome the disadvantages of money and media attention and still be in a position to win. Ideas matter.”-—

What ideas? i know of one idea: single-out manufacturing/union jobs for a zero tax rate, making every other business essentially subsidize them. And it’s a bad idea.

What freaking ideas?

Raising minimum wage - more federal funding for public schools - more funds for head start - more funds for Bono's escapades in Africa - forcing businesses to pay benefits to laid off workers - more federal funds for unionized Pennsylvania fire houses - etc. Those ideas. And he calls Mitt a liberal......

“What ideas? i know of one idea: single-out manufacturing/union jobs for a zero tax rate, making every other business essentially subsidize them. And it’s a bad idea.”

Rick is a rambling uh-uh-er, just like Obama without teleprompter.

On FoxNews with Greta:

http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/on-the-record/2012/02/11/santorum-im-best-contrast-president-obama-big-issues

Santorum: And you know, the other side of Michigan, the western side of Michigan, we got, you know, the good, strong conservative values that is — you know, Grand Rapids and that great western Michigan heartland of America. We think we can run very, very well in the state of Michigan....

And that’s what folks are looking for. They’re looking for somebody who has ideas, that aren’t — maybe — you know, not the model. I mean, “The Wall Street Journal” called our plan the supply side economics for the working man, and they criticized it. They criticized. Oh, you know, you can’t single out manufacturing, just try to help manufacturing. Well, you can if that’s where we’re losing our jobs...”

“making every other business essentially subsidize them. “

nope:
Cut the corporate income tax rate in half to make our businesses competitive around the world, from 35% to 17.5%;

Most manufacturing jobs these days are non-union.
