I would not argue in the AFFIRMATIVE that putting those issues at the FOREFRONT, EVERY DAY will win an election.

And again...it's now up to you to prove this straw man...

Name me ONE GOP candidate in ANY race (POTUS, Congressional, dog-catcher)...
...in 2012...
...2010...
...2008..
...go back a ways every two years...
...to the 1850s if you want...
...who has put these theological values & "issues at the FOREFRONT, EVERY DAY" in their campaign.

Go on.

Tell us.

Just one GOP candidate...ANY race, ANY time.

We're waiting.

Dig.

Dig deep.

Oh, and if you can't find us...

...even one GOP candidate who's done this...

Why in the world are you raising this as some big concern???

Where's either the overall GOP (or Santorum) pattern/track record...to make this ONE comment an issue for you?

(You see...you're beginning to sound like the liberal MSM that wants to keep theology hermetically sealed from politics!)

ALL: This is a classic case of a straw man presentation.

In fact, you won't find a better example on FR of a straw man raised than this low tactic by a Santorum critic.

So...#1...by all means question Santorum on the merits of his comments (post #11 indicates you don't want to do that: "I’m not saying Santorum is inaccurate in his characterization of Obama."
Therefore, #2, may I suggest that Santorum has other more worthy issues to question him on -- versus trying to pretend or falsely inject that Santorum has a daily forefront drumbeat on these Biblical values' matters?
