I noticed on the local TV stations the Mitt Smear Machine has started its full frontal assault on Santorum in the last few days.
I ride to work in a 3-person carpool that includes one arch-conservative (me), a lib, and a RINO. The RINO has been for Mitt all along. He did show some promise when he worried that Mitt has not completely disowned Romneycare.
However, he always comes up with a remark like "Santorum seems too extreme to me". Turns out he was referring to the out-of-context quote in which Santorum allegedly compared homosexuality to bestiality. He was equally nervous when Newt told that gay dude to vote for Obama. I tried to explain to him that the conservative/republican candidate has to say something in opposition to Obama, and that you cannot expect him to cater to the homo crowd (this is the way the RINO mind works-they want to "get along" with everybody).
I wonder if these out-of-context quotes from Newt and Santorum are being recycled by Mitt and his minions?
