All issues are social issues.

Perhaps, but as a good general picks his battles, a good politician will take good care to pick his campaign issues. I don't see that here.

His multi-paragraph screed on his website about how he's going to devote resources to battling internet pornography for example is a non-starter. If there is anything that any politician should be aware of at this moment in time is that the people want the government to keep its hands off the internet en toto.

You apparently haven’t seen some of the horrific stuff, and I’m talking absolutely criminally evil, on the internet, have you?

I suggest you go to zombietime.com sometime and try to hold down your lunch. Anyone seeing this would agree that this sewage HAS to be stopped. There is NO “constitutional right” to purvey this poison.

THIS is the stuff that Santorum is talking about, not your run-of-the-mill lingerie ads.

Obscenity and child pornography is not proteced free speech. There are criminal laws against both such forms of speech. Besides as they “It’s the culture, stupid.”

Santorum is our best shot against Obama. He is trailing Obama by just 2-points and with a shoestring budget has vaulted to the top beating Romney by 10-points in the recent Gallup. His blue-collar appeal may help bag MI, PA, and OH.

Who else do we have? Gingrich drags along with him the $1.6m FreedieMac albatross around his neck, and carries his park bench pic with Pelosi for cap-and-trade, touts his own version of “grandmother” amnesty, his negatives fall through the cellar, he is losing the female vote by over 20 points, he got thrashed by Romney in a major must-win state in FL and lost in every key demographic, appears to be losing his lead in his own home state of GA, is trailing Obama by some 15 points, and keeps everyone on tenterhooks as to when he will self-implode like his “moon bases” idea that became a SNL skit.
