Still a long way to go.
Personally, Santorum just doesn’t have any appeal to me. I mean, I would take him over Romney any day of the week, but that shouldn’t be enough.
Newt articulates the conservative message better than anyone else running at the moment. One reason is that it comes from within, not externally like Romney. I think Newt can get the momentum back once the debates kick back in, especially now that the pressure cooker crosshairs will be off him.
Santorum almost seems agitated when talking, like he’s perpetually annoyed at something.
Have noticed that when he is speaking or asked a question as in the debates, he rambles. Talks way too much, repeats too much, and never knows when to stop. As he goes on, he becomes louder, and more agitated. This is an indication that a person is not sure of their message and assumes more is better to fill the void.
“I mean, I would take him over Romney any day of the week, but that shouldn’t be enough.”
Right now, oour options are limited. Santorum is rising and Newt has fallen.
If Newt rises, I’ll switch.
In my book either one is infinitely preferable to Romney and they are the only alternatives we have left.
While BOTH of them, BOTH more conservative than Romney, are in the running, they are splitting the Conservaitve vote, insuring Mittens a victory in the primary. But not necessariluy in the Geneal Election. The Dems are licking their chops at the thought of a Romney candidacy. MEGAMILLIONAIRE with ties to WALL STREET, BAIN CAPITAL exported of American jobs. THAT is what they will try to paint Romney as, forgetting his philosophical issues.
If BOTH Santorum and Gingrich CONTINUE to run, Romney will win, and you can take that to the bank.
