How bout letting the voters decide this one newbie?
That’s pretty much where I am.
Although, I’m willing to listen to Newt.
Somebody needs to swoop and save the day for conservatives! West? Rubio? Palin? We’ll probably get Jeb.
I have no problem finding someone new at the convention, but I do think that the attacks on Santorum fiscally are overstated. Santorum was a team play, and it caused him to have some bad votes in the 2000s. He had been praised for some of his fiscal work previously in his career. He is a conservative, and I think, when he’s in charge, he’d do things differently that when he was just a team player. He would clearly be better than Bush fiscally.
Santorum opposed TARP, cap and trade and health care mandates. He IS fiscally conservative, and he understands the proper role of the federal government better than the others. Rick will fight Obama every day on HIS terms, and discuss issues that the media want to avoid, namely, the pervasive socialism and corruption of the Obots. Bob
Valentine’s Day as a sign up day and no “Pink”os as your screen name? Kinda cute I think. :)
Reads like a crap article by a libertarian who tells us not to support anybody who voted for Baby Bush’s big government policies. Even freshmen Senators under the gun.
Sure.
I don’t pretend to know how fiscally reponsible Santorum would be, but this fallacious article is a joke and doesn’t begin to teach me a thing besides the fact that junior Senators have to vote along party lines a lot of the time.
Then there is the lie that Santorum would not be different than Romney. Right sure.
There is nobody good left running for the GOP nominee. Santorum is light years better than the rest of the field Even so, Romney will win on Super Tuesday and be the nominee. Then we will be lucky if half the base supports him to defeat Obama, or if we end up with another 4 years of severe destruction of America.
A President Santorum would be a miraculous save under the expected scenario of Romney vs Satan (obama).
Yes, Rubio as VP may well make the GOP alandslide winner. This talk of nominating someone who has not been a player reeks of corruption. Bob
No!!!
Politics is all about pretending.
Fixed it.
Can we stop pretending Mitt Romney is a conservative in any sense of the word?
I wonder how Rick feels about moon bases and make-work jobs for school kids?
He wont like the kids working because that would eat into Rick’s base voter, a government union thug. (shhh, don’t let that get around...but he has a fabulous pro union voting record....shhhh).
Rubio?
Anyone who supports amnesty is NOT a fiscal conservative
You should fix your tagline, since Yamamoto never said that.
Why, just because he doesn’t vote NO on everything like Ron Paul? (Well, everything except earmarks for his home district in Texas that is).
Try again.
Newt is a big government guy.
Yes, Rubio. He does not support amnesty, as far as I know. Bob
I don’t know much about Romney, but there must be something conservative about him because Rush can say nothing but good things.
