Well I am looking at who can save us too and it isn't Newt, Milt and Paul in my book.
So why isn’t Santorum talking about the serious state of our economy?

Your dedicated animosity against the conservative and freerepublic favorite is difficult to understand, it isn’t unusual with Santorum supporters, many of whom, are old Romney supporters.
That isn’t the case with you I don’t think, but it still gets to the Gingrich versus Romney argument.
If you are an old anti-Romney warrior, then you notice many of the old Romneybots now supporting Santorum with you and really despising Newt Gingrich, with you.
The old Romney crowd does not like Gingrich at all, Santorum they can accept, or hide behind, or even prefer this time, depending on the individual.
He is. You need to familiarize yourself with his stump speeches. He also is the only candidate that will field up to an hour of questions off the cuff from the audience afterwards to cover their concerns.
He just gave a couple speeches today in MI where he even called out Bush for giving Obummer cover for the GM bailouts and discussed the how income inequality is a good thing. Despite what is being pushed my the Hate Rick crowd, he has been covering more than Catholic issues on the trail. That is why he is moving past Milt in the polls and consistently gets high marks from people who claim an allegiance to the Tea Party.
PPP is about to release polling that shows Rick up over Milt in WA by 9%. That is big. Milt has been up there and no one has ever gotten above him till now.
I live in Washington, Laz. Santorum is not going anywhere in this state. He is dead meat.
Our Republican caucus means nothing. I’m not involved in it because it is meaningless.
Yesterdays FR favorite isn’t the same as today’s. Winning elections changes things.

I have no dislike of Newt generally. I would vote for him if he was able to beat Milt, which seems increasingly unlikely now. I do find his supporters constant slamming of Rick baloney and I will fight on his behalf like I have done here at FR since he announced and I was the only one backing him. I don’t really care who else backs him and what their motivations are. Rick was my Senator for 2 terms and was a constant voice of values I believe in. He was a good Senator and will make a great President. Bank on it.
Looks like another state Rick will win in then. If you are going to let your favored candidate twisting in the wind while Ricks supporters show up, Newt has no chance but to lose another state. You fight like hell here where it doesn’t count so why are you not transferring that to help him out in WA? I sure am not sitting around hoping for Rick to win. I am doing something about it.
I agree with JR, now look at how you keep relentlessly attacking the candidate that JR has endorsed, then look at my posting history, you will notice very little of anything negative about Santorum, except what has just started to leak out a little in the past week or so about why the Santorum supporters are so incredibly hostile to Gingrich, the freerepublic candidate, that is related to our continuing anti-Romney agenda.
If you were strongly anti-Romney, and were on those threads, then you do recognize how many of the Romney crowd are now harshly anti-Gingrich, pro-Santorum posters.
You need to back off of Newt, you are even lying to make attacks on him.
I've made no lie. I even cited where my arguments come from. You can choose not to believe these reports, I do.
So you want to continue a harsh bashing of the freerepublic candidate.
You guys make it almost impossible to get past you to whatever there is to like about Santorum.
You seem personally determined to start a pissing war with the Gingrich supporters.
Give me a break. Check out the next Santorum thread why don't you. Check out the seething anger we have had to put up with from the Newt people. Also why don't you be honest with yourself and reread this thread and explain to me how I started this? I was calling out a straight up slam from 2ndDiv about Executive Experience. You yourself stated that you were using your own definition for the topic arguing with me.
All I know is me having to try and counter your BS about Gingrich including the lies of him being a lobbiest.
Along with all the anti-conservative Romney supporters who are now strong Santorum devotees, (and still anti-conservative/Gingrich), we are seeing a ton of long time sleeper accounts coming alive to support Santorum and bash Gingrich.
Just like the Romney sleeper accounts of old, before he was forbidden here. I have yet to see a sleeper account come to life to support Gingrich.
Refute what I cited to you not using Newts explanation but an impartial 3rd party or stop calling me a lair. You are the one not defending your argument. Use Lie again and I am ignoring you fully in any further debate.
Your argument on Santorum people being Romney plants is BS. I am familiar with almost all of the people on the Ping and who have backed me up over the year pushing Santorum and none have been anything other that people who genuinely care about seeing Rick get into the WH. There a couple Cain and Perry people in there, but they are solid people. What you perceive is mistaken.
I was just about to print the post so I could read it later when I noticed the little ‘Note’ at the end.
Wasn’t about to waste any paper on it. Tired of people whose daily political position swings with the latest polls.

I responded to you with an explanation for how Gingrich has proven himself a national leader of historical measure, not with an attack on Santorum.
I had to deal with the Romney as Executive nonsense, when he was a total failure at it. You keep lying about Newt being a lobbyist, and if you claim to not see a crossover from Romney to Santorum, then you make yourself unbelievable again. I sure recognize hard core Romney warriors among them, but then again, I was strongly anti-Romney, and fought them on long threads like this.
This sleeper account business is the new thing, they are ALL Santorum supporters.
Lazlo,
They are just lashing out because Rick is kicking butt and their guy is getting left in the dust. You would think they would be thanking Rick for kicking Romney’s train off the tracks. You will be called a troll or secretive Romneybot next. It has to be some conspiracy, it can’t be their candidate failing.
Seems like some of them hate Rick more than they do Obummer. It’s irrational.
Remember 2010? When much of the GOP leadership sat on their behinds and convinced each other Obama was too powerful to be defeated? Governor Sarah Palin ran around all over the country raising huge sums of money, fighting Obama and the Left, and generally supporting good Conservative candidates. And we had a huge win. Many others were involved too, but Gov. Palin was certainly instrumental in helping our side gain a whopping 600+ seats.
And still, much of the ‘smart GOP leadership’ won’t listen to her.
