I can’t stomach newt. I think he would make a poor president. He is emotionally damaged and needy. Yes, he is a genius. But he is socially disabled. He is untrustworthy because his motivations are all within his own skin.
Santorum is smart, decent, trustworthy, an unabashed conservative. He does lack charisma, but it’s that charisma that gets those others into trouble. Santorum could actually drive the babysitter home without trying to cop a feel.
I’d like to see him get a nice chunk of caucus votes.
ROTFLMAO!!! That is so true...probably one of the FEW American politicians at ANY level you could say that about...
Charisma worked for Reagan.

Santorum lost his incumbent Senate seat in Pennsylvania by something like _17_ percentage points. And that was an _incumbent_ seat.
Regardless of his conservatism, he’s not going to win as the Republican candidate in a general election. He wasn’t even a good enough candidate to keep his own seat in Pennsylvania (which, contrary to popular beliefs even here on FR, is quite conservative once you get away from both Philadelphia and Pittsburgh).
Anyone who believes otherwise is delusional.
And I make this assertion as one who will gladly vote for Mr. Santorum in the general election next November.
