This is unfortunate. If Santorum wins the Wisconsin primary, he has a chance of denying Romney a majority at the convention. But if he loses there, it looks dire.
I really don't like the way ryan did it timewise... it was almost sabotaging the primary, but then I guess he and the GOP wanted ultimate impact...
I think you are a santorum supporter, and you must feel really betrayed, that Ryan would pick someone so weakly conservative, and I am sorry for that. I think Newt was hurt, also, because he had said nice things about ryan's plan, notwitstanding the MTP quote, and even called him a hero and likened him to Paul revere and being out front.. and Ryan even incorporated some of Newt's suggestions into his updated plan..
Man, it's like loyalty, principle, conviction are just gone from people who we thought were honorable. demint was a real surprise to me.
“If Santorum wins the Wisconsin primary, he has a chance of denying Romney a majority at the convention. ..”
Best way we grassroots folks can help Rick Santorum is to support him ourselves, including calling talk shows that air in Wisconsin (or any upcoming primary state), volunteering for Rick, etc..
While I like Paul Ryan, his endorsement doesn’t mean a thing to me, and I think you, me and others, will make our own decisions.
Another thing, it’s getting annoying that all of the establishment Republicans are endorsing Romney, all at once, and it will turn many people off, if they are like me. I wonder: Are they being pressured to endorse Romney?
Well since we’re past the point where RS could win outright we’ve talking about the “brokered convention” deal and they are all terrifed that would be a disaster. That’s why prominent figures are going for Romney now. The real a-holes are the ones who backed him early. I’m not mad at Ryan.
Phil Collins thinks the excitement would help us.
