Rick Santorum has a not so little problem standing between him and a general-election face-off with President Obama — Mitt Romney.

But that's not stopping the former U.S. senator from Pennsylvania from focusing a new negative ad/movie trailer against the president instead of the former Massachusetts governor whose substantial delegate lead appears to have him and not Santorum headed to the Republican presidential nomination.

The trailer, which previews a video series Santorum's campaign plans to unveil on its website in coming days, depicts a dystopian future where everything bad that can happen does, save for Hunger Games-like fights to the death between teens.

Good ad. He also needs an Etch-a-Sketch ad. If he’d had one in Louisiana, he might have kept Etch-a-Sketch under teh delegate threshold.

A Romney supporter on the WSJ, was arguing that Santorum was not as smart on the economy as Romney because he had no experience.

i told him that as far as comparing Romney and Santorum on the economy, we have to remember that Romney fully supported cap and trade and one of his top advisors is now helping to implement the new economy killing EPA standards. There’s a whole lot more to managing the economy than being able to play with numbers.

The EPA, CAP and TRADE are all tied up with ENERGY and on that score Romney and Obama are not far apart, just like on Obamacare.
