I agree that Santorum was characterizing what voters would be thinking and not saying it directly himself.

But as usual with Santorum, he’s so poorly spoken, and such a simple tool, that it’s easy for the left (like Drudge) to twist his words.

Any High School newspaper could have performed that function.

Santorum is a well-meaning blithering idiot.

“Santorum is a well-meaning blithering idiot.”

Yep. Lost re-election to the Senate in his own state by a LANDSLIDE. He isn’t going to be our nominee. He isn’t going to be president. All he is doing is helping Obama. Same with Gingrich.

Like him or not, its time to get behind Romney and help him defeat the Muslim Marxist. We cannot beat the left wing media and the Democrats if we are fighting amongst ourselves.

Santorum is a brilliant man!

It's the media who are being deliberate blithering idiots.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Santo is in WAY over his head. That much is obvious. And his fanatical following has to constantly “clarify” what it was he “really” said.......

Is there some other language we are missing here? Where the actual message is lost in the interpretation? According to them it is. And we must all be idiots for not understanding what is painfully, an utter embarrassment.

Drudge posting "SANTORUM SNAPS......." is a bit more than twisting his words. Here's various definitions of snapThe only one that applies is this:

To suffer a physical or mental breakdown, especially while under stress:

Santorum is not an idiot.....he's just running against the Republican machine with little support. The long knives have been sharpened for anything he says. Romney/they will not be denied.

If Gingrich was in second place, trust me, we'd find out how "idiotic" his statements are. (and I'm not saying Newt or his statements ARE idiotic.)

You must give him credit, he’s trying as hard as little ‘possum eating feces grin can take him to become the Walter Mondale of the Republican Party.

With great degrees comes great arrogance.
