Thanks Hank. As I just said to another FReeper, someone has to go up against Mitt if he is to be denied the nomination.
Do we support the guy getting 37%, or drop him and support the guy getting 7%?
On this forum, Santorum has been the target of 90% of the negative comments. While we couldn’t say bupkis about Newt on penalty of being sent packing, forum participants posted every tid-bit they could find on Santorum, and did everything they could short of cutting of his family jewels.
It wasn’t criticism of Santorum that got folks zotted around here, so please don’t tell me Newt got the worst end of that deal. You darn well know I’m right.
Look how that paid off for us. Super Tuesday is less than a week away, and Santorum has been severely damaged just in time to serve Mitt well.
It’s a real shame...
I hope you’re not under the illusion that what we say here actually has any bearing on the outcome of the primaries.
The truth, I fear, is that informed FReepers are 0.003% of the voters. The vast majority of them are semi-brainwashed idiots who have grown up under public education and think that because Mitt Romney looks Presidential (if you don’t look too hard) he would make a good President. End of discussion. Throw anything else in their direction, and it’s just noise.
Yes... I’m feeling down after yesterday. It’s distressing. Hell, I think I even remember some Republican politician coming on Fox yesterday and exclaiming how great it was to have open primaries because it showed people what a “big tent” we have.
