Santorum probably won’t be able to carry the state of Pennsylvania. He is a light weight and should have more experience, such as being governor of Pennsylvania for a term and managing it like a “full-spectrum”, true Conservative. Then I would consider voting for him.
As for Rush Limbaugh, he used to talk about how beneficial illegal aliens were to our economy. What a pant load! I listen to him very rarely or not at all.
The candidate we must have right now is someone who has been fully vetted with no surprises waiting in the wings. That means either Sarah Palin or Newt Gingrich. Both are fighters, neither will tolerate BS or lies, and both are capable of political strategic and tactical thinking.
Sarah Palin has made it clear that she won’t be running in this election cycle.
In this last debate, Newt Gingrich took the political arguments ‘to the mat’, both with the moderators and the big liberal, Romney. He led the way, and it was quite clear, that others followed.
Newt calls it like he sees it, just like Winston Churchill, and both men were labeled madmen who took political stances not wholely popular with their contemporaries. But both men, Churchill and Gingrich, showed leadership, determination and the courage to speak truth to events. That is what I want and believe this nation needs now.
As for Gov. Perry, Texans seem to like him, but the Texas way of politics to power isn’t what we need now. Perry practises crony captialism, the old pay-for-play as governor.
I want to change the way Washington works. The only one who has said he will do that is Newt.
Note: there is a reason Romney has so much elitist and establishment support - he won’t change a thing about how Washington, D.C., goes about its business.
Today Obama is/has been trying to kill the coal industry in PA, so I strongly feel Obama will lose to most of the GOP candidates.
While Santorum is my favorite, Newt and Perry are fine, too, so I won’t get into the conservative bashing game. Otherwise, we will end up with Romney, or even Obama.
