The main problem with Santorum is that he probably is not any where hard enough to do the necessary. Every agency needs to be cleaned out; vast numbers of executive orders need to be rescinded; departments need to be shut down; Democrats need to be investigated and put in jail; the borders need to be sealed and the illegals told to get out, along with their anchor babies; Planned Parenthood needs to be investigated; and a great deal more. Instead, I’m afraid Santorum would say some comforting things, make a few good appointments, and propose some legislation that won’t do much even if it is passed...and that will simply not be enough.

I think he is a fine man, and I’ll vote for him if he is the nominee, but I think that the Rs, as a whole, are cowards. They certainly aren’t warriors.

It's going to take more than one election. I don't know if you had a chance to hear Mark Levin interviewing Jeff Sessions tonight, they were addressing your very point. The need for conservative warriors.. and lots of them in leadership positions. Sessions was pointing out that 2010 gave us a good class. It just takes a little while for them to get in leadership positions. I would think, simply by observing what is going on that more are on the way, and like they were saying, it takes multiple elections.

The tendency to pile all the problems on one person to solve of course is not really how things work. Santorum would make an fine president. There are many more that would have to help him role all this terrible stuff back.

You’re right. Newt is such a warrior, though. He’s thought about doing all those things and more for a very long time, it’s obvious. He shows passion and determination just speaking about it.

Rick has a couple of issues he’s big on, but all in all he speaks in platitudes and vague generalities. He’s just not strong enough, thoughtful enough or determined enough to do the bold, even drastic, things that must be done to make real changes. And Mittens doesn’t really care about undoing anything BHO’s done. The best that can be said about him is that he doesn’t want to destroy the country like BHO.
