To: My Favorite Headache

Santorum is not a waste.

He’s a wonderful candidate and the one to defeat Obama.

Newt and Paul are both insignificant at this time.

Sadly, Santorum doesn’t seem to have the sense to keep on a message that this election will be about. He lets the media side track him to social issues which always make him seem out of the main stream. I agree with his views, but he’s not politically savvy enough to handle the heat. Obama would kill him.

We’re screwed with Romney. Gingrich is the only one that has a chance. And he’s a long shot with all the fodder about him.

Plus his wife looks like an ice queen and she doesn’t come across as likeable. She needs to mess her hair up a little bit.

Santorum has a temper. Not ready for presidential level debates. Obama will drag him into contraceptives, religious issues, Spanish issues, and make him look extreme, although he is not extreme. Go with Newt, the proven debater, has experience at Speakership level in politics, which is 3rd in line for presidency.

Sadly some people haven’t figured it out yet. Voting for Newt or Paul is exactly what the Romney camp is hoping conservatives will do.

Santorum is not a wonderful candidate, he’s a social conservative big government “compassionate conservative” who does not have the mental capacity or oratory skill to not drop verbal land mines that will make him look completely unacceptable to the swing voters.

He will be evicerated in a general election, just like he was in PA in 06 with sound bite after sound bite of him saying things that make him look like a monster and he will be rejected just as badly as he was in 06.

The play book that took him down in 06 will work exactly as well in in 12 because nothing about him has changed.

I will vote for the nominee whoever it is, but Sanorum has ZERO chance of winning a national election.
