"Probably he was influenced by the fact that you have been posting dozens of attacks on Santorum on just about every primary thread."

That's reasonable.

But I don't think questioning a good man's electability is necessarily an attack. I think Santorum would make a damn fine President but I don't think he could beat Obama.

I think either Gingrich or Romney could.

And I despise Romney.

I also believe that if we end up with nobody in the primary than Santorum and Romney that Romney would likely win.

Whether other folk agree is their business and I'll respect them for that. I'm trying to get folks to see what I see...even if I AM delusional.

IMO, it's time to have this national values conversation. We have a bad economy because of a serious morals problem in America. As a matter of fact, Rush happened to make a reference to the relationship between morals and the economy on his show today.

You want to “get” people to see things as you do? I don't because I‘m satisfied with my vision. In addition, because of your and a group of posters’ relentless attacks against Santorum, I can't bear to even look at Newt. I can't bear to hear his voice. This is not anything against Newt, himself. I just get flashes of all those vicious posts, yours being among the most notable, and my automatic reaction is that I just can't deal with Newt. So, it would seem that your efforts have been counter productive, at least in my regard.
