I think so.. I’ll be surprised if Newt is in the race at this point. I would like to know what has Santorum done in the Senate that was considered Conservative??
It doesn't matter. If Rick somehow pulled off the nomination over Romney, great. He's head and shoulders better than Mitt. He's managed his campaign money to stretch Nationally when it wasn't enough to be regional.
Mitt on the other hand thinks it's Monopoly money, throws it around like there's some magic money tree to just grab more from. Wait, that sounds like every other politician in Washington. DUH!
Anyway, if Santorum can just get us to a brokered convention we'll have hope for another candidate. And if we pray hard enough we might just win.
EVERY candidate has their baggage. Newt has his global warming and heathcare problem and women issues. Romney is completely out of the question though. I would feel like I would be helping an abortionist if I vote for Romney. I will NEVER vote for him.
Santorum became increasingly more conservative as the years went by, and was far more conservative as a Senator representing the entire state than he had been as a Republican Congressman representing the heavily Democratic 18th District. His Lifetime Senate ACU average is 92.1%.
