Did Santorum ever complete his taxes and make them public? Has not been vetted thoroughly.

Rick Santorum went home to do his income taxes on his home computer. Did he ever release them? Seriously, Santorum has been given passes by the media and the other candidates and the public. He seems like his accomplishments are weak and his grasp of issues are couched in 1990's rhetoric. He needs to release his taxes and he needs to communicate and explain in detail his economic plans for America. Agree?

Better a cheerleader for America than the apologizer it now has. It’s a necessary part of the skill set, but, as you point out, not sufficient.

Promises are important.

Newt's marriage vows are promises.

There's a lot of slime that Santorum supporters and Gingrich supporters can throw back and forth at each other.

Your posts are predominantly anti-Santorum and only occasionally anti-Romney.

Why don't the conservatives on Freerepublic first focus our efforts on defeating Romney? Then we can pick the best conservative.

1) Did Santorum ever complete his taxes and make them public? Has not been vetted thoroughly.

2)Did Ralph Mitchell ever say a kind word about Santorum on FreeRepublic?

3) Does anyone give a damn about 1) or 2) above?

Nope.

If everyone is for newt, Romney can’t win. If everyone is for Rick, Romney can’t win.

But if some people are for rick and some are for newt then romney can win with his rino base. The rino base won’t listen to us but other conservatives will and that’s why rick and newt fans like to attack each other to be the one that beats Romney.

Maybe you don't get the paper or shelter yourself from the news, but the period of time that Rick went home to do his taxes his daughter became deathly ill and almost lost her life. I imagine he was spending a lot of time in the hospital instead of catering to worthless inquiries into his taxes. Considering he had to borrow a truck to get around IA when he started this campaign, I doubt the high finance dirt you are looking for is forthcoming.

Who was the one who really hit Romney hard on Romneycare during the Florida debates? It was Santorum.

LOLOL. The Rick supporters defend him with all sorts of funny excuses. He can do wrong. Show the tax returns, Rick. Newt and Mitt has.

He doesn’t have to reveal them to the IRS for over 2 mos. What makes you so special that he should hurry to get them done to satisfy you?

Well, he did say Mitt and Newt should release theirs.

Why does he get a pass?

So what. This nitpicky stuff is pure unadulterated BS. How the hell do YOU know that he isn’t going to release them?

Newt wanted Romney to release his so that we could all find out about his Cayman Island accounts and blind trusts.

This same pattern of nonsense has occurred against every candidate who has challenged Romney’s position. First it was Bachmann after her good showing in the Iowa straw poll - post after post attacking her as pro-establishment, in it to help Romney as an agent of the establishment, etc. Then it was Cain - same thing. Then it was Perry - same thing. Then it was Gingrich when he had his first surge. Now it’s Santorum. Same recycled style of attacks each and every time.

What are you even talking about? How do you know he’s even filed them yet?

Do you not understand how ridiculous you sound?

Usually pushed by the same group of characters here.

How do you think we can defeat Romney if we don’t unite behind a candidate? It merely splits the vote and Romney waltzs through to be the nominee.
