It’s very painful to watch all these politicians – even some who are conservatives, don’t get me wrong, but they’re politicians nonetheless – that we all have to rally around, rally around…
Let me tell you something. We have to rally around the Constitution. We have to rally around our children and grandchildren. We have to rally around principles, tried and true principles based on human experience. This isn’t about rallying around some politician. It’s about fighting for our country, taking our country back. This is the process.
But to hear some of these numbskulls who think they’re so smart tell us “yeah there’ve been some people out there who’ve really divided us“. Well then I guess we shouldn’t have a primary! I guess we shouldn’t look at anybody’s record! I guess we should just say ‘John McCain you’re it, Bob Dole you’re it, another Bush you’re it, eh Romney you’re it, this one’s it‘, why do we go through the process? In other words that’s just about as stupid as you can to get to make comments like that.
He goes on to suggest that just because Paul Ryan says to rally around Romney, doesn’t make him want to change his mind.

Rick Santorum good naturedly said (paraphrasing), on one of the Sunday tv shows today, that Paul Ryan (and Rubio) are young and can make mistakes. :)
Also, it's no secret that Rick Santorum is Mark's favorite candidate.
FYI
I agree. Milt will have to personally cut me a check for my support just like he did for these dopes that are endorsing him.
I will not vote for Mittens Romney in the primary. As for the general, I can be persuaded to support him, but I’m not committed to it.
Not Milt. NEVER.
EVERY advantage is gone with Romney.
The GOP could win on eligibility alone.
... On the economy alone (The DNC will point to what
Romney did to Mass.)
... On RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE alone.
I heard Mark say it too on his national radio program, thank you for sharing this Sun.
I wish I could find the quote, Mark also said something like, People notice, the “insiders” are endorsing Romney.
It’s going to happen, more “enlightenment” soon.
I find it interesting that some FReepers who screeched long and loud about Santorum’s endorsement of Arlen Specter years ago are now rationalizing supporting Romney for political reasons.
I have seen no reason for any conservative to want to rally around Romney.
ANY Republican in the White House will be better than what we have. If conservatives refuse to vote for the Republican nominee because he is “not conservative” enough, then they will probably not have to worry about voting in 2016.
I’ll support any Republican over Obama.
I’ll also support just about any Republican in a brokered convention over Romney, and hence support any strategy needed to bring that about.
That’s my stance, and I’m sticking with it until November.
Obama winning a second term is the reason..
Even Breitbart, in his last speech, said that he would rally around whoever gets the nomination.
We are all Breitbart now.
Never.
Will not vote the enemy into my own camp.
Santorum 2012
Isn’t the real question how we can get conservative, tea-party, people into the many House and Senate seats that are available, this year, with this a$$ at the top of the ticket?
I could pull the lever in the booth for him, given Zero as the alternative, but I would do ABSOLUTELY nothing else for his campaign. He won’t win, anyway, but he is going to sabotage a lot of good candidates in the House and Senate.
I think that this is his purpose.
Romney will be WORSE than Obama re-elected.
BOTH GIVE THE SAME THING.
But Obama will be impeached immediately.
Mitt isn't even a R - where are you getting " not conservative enough" from? The GOP E, the media!! You ate their propaganda - don't regurgitate it here!!
Now tell me what is Republican about this....
PRO HOMO, PRO ABORTION, anti traditional marriage, appointment of liberal judges, anti gun, BIG Gov't socialistic heathcare.
That's Mitt's record - LIBERAL - all the way! And add that MA, under his admin, was 47 in the nation for unemployment!
He's a snake in the grass POS FRAUD to represent himself as an R. He's got nothing to prove it - and him saying he is - I'll add, he is a KNOWN LIAR.

Obamney IS Robama's second term.
If the GOPe succeeds in shoving Dole III down our throats the GOP party will be sleeping with the Whigs.
I'll write in Sarah or Newt, or vote Constitution Party or even Libertarian. My advice to anybody who suggests rallying around Obamney is to GFYS.
“ANY Republican in the White House will be better than what we have. If conservatives refuse to vote for the Republican nominee because he is “not conservative” enough, then they will probably not have to worry about voting in 2016.”
“Not conservative enough” implies not settling for a flawed candidate who has some redeeming qualities.
Romney is a Dem Trojan horse trying to take over the Pubs from the inside.
Romney’s dad was a student and supporter of Saul Alinsky.
Socialism is bad, whether it has a D or an R by it’s name.
We’ve got to TRY to stop him in the primaries.
Not only would Romney be Obama’s second term, it’d be a second term without any Republican resistance.
