As I told another gentleman on another blog, do not come around me whispering words of poisonous defeatism like Wormwood in Lord of the Rings.

Romney can win this. Santorum cannot. Period.

It seems a lot of posters on the right (or who are purporting to be on the right) are more concerned that Romney loses so that they can say “I told you so.” Hence the continuing effort to depress support.

I have a lot of swing voters and democrats in my extended family. The swing voters will go to Romney but if it’s Santorum they stay home. The dem relatives will go to the polls and vote democrat even if they substitute an avocado for Obama.

You guys who think that somehow Santorum or some other perfect consrvative is going to show up are living in a fool’s paradise. Santorum is as much a waffler as Romney, even more so. And he is HATED by a good chunk of women who think his home-schooling and stand on birth control is a way to keep his wife subjugated. This is what people in the non-political world think. I am a Catholic convert, so don’t be coming at me about religion, as I wouldn’t have joined the Church if I didn’t accept her teachings. A lot of people dono’t understand it, though, and Santorum has only made the suspicion worse.

By the way, has anyone seen him photographed coming out of mass? I guess I could have missed it.

Miss M, you are making a lot of sense today. (But, then again you usually do). Santorum is on third base because of a walk end couple of passed balls. Not because he hit a triple. He is a terrible candidate on both form and substance and would get destroyed in the general.

One thing that amazes me is the US has nearly 30% of the population professing to be Catholic.

Bearing in mind the regime has declared all out war on the Catholic Church you gotta wonder how many Catholics still plan to vote for the regime?

Why Rick Santorum’s once-generous lead in Wisconsin is eroding

PraiseTheLord to PSYCHO-FREEP

The GOOD news I heard by Rick Santorum in interview on EWTN WorldOver Thursday PM is that by their calculations, he is only a hundred some points behind.

Somewhere I saw how the calculations and apportioning the delegates look in an actual real valid distribution to have them come out this way.

GO RICK

Here is a bit from it:
“ ... Those counts, Santorum says, are not taking into account Republican party rules, as well as the state-level meetings that actually determine how many delegates go to each candidate.

” . . . Now, the Santorum campaign is providing some numbers to flesh out the candidate’s claims. In a long conversation Wednesday evening, John Yob, the campaign’s national and state convention director, pointed out that many high-profile primaries have been little more than beauty contests,

With mittens as the candidate the GOP is over, dead and gone. I do not need to respond further.
