Good Morning.
Here’s to a better day!
If Santorum agrees to give his Delegates to Romney for the VP slot...not unlike his support for Arlen Specter.
...then we’ll see the true Santorum.
To late after that to say, “yeah I was wrong”
None of these (or any) guys is perfect, but Santorum is a big government, big union, crony capitalist type all the way.
Newt’s flirted with progressivism in his books and speeches for years, but he’s smart and narcissistic enough to see that his pro-Constitutional roots should be leading him now—and to pretty much stick with that.
And yes, Newt is in a number of ways, for better and worse, like Clinton.
I think there is one big difference between Clinton and Newt. Clinton was a governor for a number of years and at least has shown a technical executive ability. Did I like his politics? No.
My problem with Gingrich is that I just don’t see the level of executive experience or organization we are going to need to get victory in November. We’ve got a long ten months ahead of us, a lot of ground work to be done.
Neither does Paul nor Santorum have any executive experience either. (One could say that Newt at least has built up and run a multimillion-dollar business over the past decade.)
So I can only imagine you’re for Romney. I was in the MA GOP during Romney’s brief four years of government experience, and believe me, he was not an effective executive.
