Then your imagination has run wild. And frankly, I resent trying to compare Santrorum to Palin or to Reagan (as he himself has done). Shame on you for that.
I instinctively was drawn to Palin and to Reagan. Was one of the very first national internet writers to notice Palin and Reagan was my first Presidential vote. There is absolutely nothing about Santorum that seems even the slightest bit like Palin or Reagan to me. The very comparison is nauseating.
In every possible way.
