Hillary vrs. some Republican loser

Everyone panic!!!

Jeb comes to the rescue!!!

A third Bush becomes president.

The 1%’ers profit. No matter what.

Bet on it.

Good! We still have our bumper sticker on our car! We’d actually love to see the two of them (Bobby Jindal and Rick) run together, however unreasonable of a request that might be. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JNsPCNAi60

Mr. Santorum, while having the conservative religious perspective.....smells of big gov’t, Rino leaning, untrustworthy, district of criminality stench.
The left will trash him with the broad brush moniker of the “religious right.”
He is really a milktoast candidate. Not strong enough on the right for the right but right enough to be labeled as as right wing religious extremist by the left .
The country is toast....and until we pull our asses out of the oven we are going to continue to burn until there is nothing left of any value.

At least he’s not ignoring ths base like Romney.

Millions of regular Republican voters will stay home if they feel disconnected by a candidate. Candidates need to motivate voters.

From Wikipedia:

“Casey’s margin of victory [over Santorum in 2006, his last run in Pennsylvania] (nearly 18% of those who voted) was the largest ever for a Democratic Senate nominee in Pennsylvania, and the largest margin of victory for a Senate challenger in the 2006 elections.”

Casey’s main asset was having his father’s last name. He is not personally formidable. I can’t see how Santorum would fare well in a presidential race.

he had his chance. We need someone like Ted Cruz

[Wuli]

Rick - DON’T.

[HamiltonJay]

He’ll get trounced, if he is planning its just so he can keep his name out there, not that he has any chance.

I tried to tell folks here there was a reason he lost his home state re-election as senator by one of if not the largest margins in US History.

He lost PA by that much because he DESERVED to lose PA by that much all his say one thing do another finally caught up with him.... He needs to just enjoy being a private citizen and do whatever he wants to do with that, because he’s just white noise politically.

Santorum was an ACTIVIST Senator, he never believed in small government or minimal government, he believed in an activist government, the only difference what what he believed the government should be activist for.

I believe government should be a referee, not a cheerleader for either side, Santorum needs to go away.

[Geoffrey]

He was my senator and was utterly worthless.

1.. Big govt guy. Loved earmarks. Supported Arlen. Bad judgement.

2. Never accomplished anything to shrink or curb the growth of govt.

3. No experience at running anything.

4. He won’t carry PA. Not even close.

He does believe in the right to life...

[tioga]

Rick has already peaked and is in his downward spiral. Stay home, Rick.

[free from tyranny]

Santorum and the rest of the BIG GOVERNMENT criminals need to go. There really is a mental defect in these people. What is this insatiable desire to “lord over “ other people's lives.
The more that these psychopaths invade my space the angrier I grow. And from what I read and experience talking with others the anger is growing geometrically.Can you say backlash?

[billhilly]

Ugh!

[Iron Munro]

New blood needed.

Anyone who is, or was, part of the problem, please go away.

Rick Santorum is laying the groundwork for another presidential run

Another act that WILL NOT get off the stage.

[1Old Pro]

How about Walker and Jindal. Not sure if either has the ability to get voters excited about supporting them. Running for office takes someone who has some real charisma and an ability to "connect" with people. Look at Reagan or even Clintoon. The GOP needs someone with credentials AND personality.

[SECURE AMERICA]

We have so many possible conservatives for 2016

Please name them......

[Leaning Right]

Hillary vrs. some Republican loser Everyone panic!!! Jeb comes to the rescue!!!

But Jeb is the Republican loser.

[warchild9]

I think the 1%’ers that control the selection of President (Article II, section 1 of the Constitution—voters have no say in the matter) see more profit in Jeb than the Hildabeast.
